I put that disconnect on the former regime. They moved on from LA and there was NOTHING that they were going to do to keep that lineage. If they had their way, Deacon would be just another player.
I absolutely agree with you. IIRC, Deacon had some unkind words for Georgia back in the LA days, so it was no surprise that it was after her death that he was finally welcomed to the Dome. I believe it was Chip who buried the hatchet, so to speak.
Some of the fans ignorance is on Georgia and Shaw, but there is a willful faction that doesn't want to acknowledge anything LA. These, I imagine, are purely fans of St Louis sports who probably won't change. I can understand that, even if it annoys me. Another set are like Albe, who are conflicted about the past between the Cards and the Rams. I can respect that.
