Where were you in 2004?

[PhillyRam]

Telling my 5 year old son after the game "Don't worry, they will beef up that Defense. Kennedy is going to be a monster...and with Jackson and that passing game, they will be contenders for years to come...."

 

[PhillyRam]

The biggest thing I remember about that game, and my son still laughs about it...every time my wife, his mom, walked into the room, Atlanta scored on like a 60 or 70 yard TD a minute later. My son yelled at her every time she came near the TV after that during a Ram game and we still try to keep her occupied away from a game.... this week included..

I was 38 and after quitting my job at the finest gentleman's club on the west coast, .

Tell me more about this mythical place...!?

 

[Dagonet]

Going out of business that year after 16 years. Best thing that happened to me though.

I was 17, a senior in high school, with a full head of hair and about 60 pounds lighter.

Now I'm turning 31 tomorrow, with a wife and 2 year old son, who I've successfully taught to say go Rams!

 

[BKBISTRO]

I was 27-28 years old and I was watching the game in a bar in Philly. I remember that we tied the game at 7-7 on a bomb to Kevin Curtis, and I was stoked. All downhill from there. The Seattle game from the previous week was a much better memory.

If I remember correctly, I was 19 working a dead end job as a gas station clerk. One of my cohorts was kind(?) enough to let me put the game on the little 15" TV in the corner of the store. Didn't get much work done that night. Wanted to do even less after the game.

Somehow those let downs only spurned me to cheer harder, and the damn team kept moving backwards!

I don't remember where I was for that game, but I do vividly recall being at the Rams/Panthers game the year before... the one where the Rams drove down at the end of regulation, but Martz didn't trust Bulger enough to go for the win, took a game-tying FG and then shit themselves badly in OT.

In 2004
I was in my 92 Honda Civic parked in the farthest spot at design school puffing my scholorship money out of a homemade bong

GO RAMS!!!!

I was sitting right here in my home on my favorite recliner watching the Rams get beat. But I figured we did good for an 8-8 team and better things were on the horizon. Boy was I wrong. And come to think it, I'm still sitting on that recliner. Boy, I need some Febreze.

 

[den-the-coach]

I knew with Larry Marmie as the Defensive Coordinator it was the beginning of the end for the Martz run, the hiring of Larry Marmie escalated the brewing feud between Jay Zygmunt and Mike Martz, Zygmunt wanted Martz to hire Dick Jauron (would have been a better hire) and when Zygmunt set up the interview with Jauron, Matz told Jauron I already promised the job to Larry.

Anyway I watched in excitement the victory over Seattle at my home with Friends and the following week in horror against the Falcons and Vick....Told my son, Rams had to rebuild especially on defense and that I hoped they would let Zygmunt go and keep Martz to pair him with a true General Manager, unfortunately, that did not happen.

 

[Antonius]

Freshman is high school! Someone mentioned the Jets game from that year earlier in the thread. I remember one of my friends thought it was so funny and gave me shit when Adam Archuleta said something in the press about the defense needing to get more interceptions before the game. Then Adam drops an interception during the game lol.

Haha I'm glad we're back, boys.

 

[Memento]

I was in the hell known as middle school. I was devastated over the Falcons loss. We need to kick their asses this year.

At seahawks stadium, our Wild Card Game watching us sweep that hawks for the 3rd time that year, the lamentation of the SeaFans was Ambrosia for the soul!
