Funny story about that back in 1989 and still in the Air Force (23 years old) I was dating a Preacher's Kid (PK) and when her father was writing his sermon, I asked him if you could say a special prayer for the Rams who were in the NFC Championship Game against the San Francisco 49ers that week...His Sermon that Sunday was about having to put things behind you to better serve the Lord and he brought up my love for sports.
Anyway was glad to give him the motivation the Rams lost that game 30-3 and his daughter and I were done less than a couple weeks later and the good Lord has been taking it out on my Rams ever sense.
