RAMSPOTTING: THE UK FANS' GUIDE TO THE ST LOUIS RAMS

[-X-]

Will @ RamsHerd

The atmosphere at the Edward Jones Dome last Sunday resembled that of a college bowl game, with fans of each team in seemingly equal numbers upping the volume after a good play by either team. The Rams can expect another divided "home" crowd this week in front of football-mad, but largely affiliation-free, London NFL fans.

That said, though, it is the Londoner's duty to root for the home team this week, and in order to do that well, it would help to know a little something about the team you're rooting for.

With that in mind, I've prepared a handy guide to the major personalities on this Rams team, and aligned them with well known characters from British pop culture and lore. You know how these things go. Ridiculous and faintly amusing characterizations after the break.

Dude. That was the shit back in the day. It was always Benny Hill and The Young Ones. British TV for the win.

Benny Hill was the shit , I loved that show for various reasons we've already discussed.

But here in Orlando , Benny was always followed by Monty .

It may not seem *as funny* now, but I'm gonna dig up an episode of that for you to see.

P.S. I should have taken you guys up on your offer for sunscreen. I'm STILL peeling from that day.

Damn Dude,,, still? I had a raccoon eye tan from my sunglasses for about 3 days, but I don't really sunburn,,, my Grandmother was 100% American Indian.
