    The easy answer as to how I became a Rams fan would be that the team moved to the city I have made my home for most of my adult life.

    The reality is a bit more complicated and has a much larger back story than what began in 1995.

    Jim emphasizes the affect of the Rams blue-and-whites
    on a Black and White TV back in the late 60’s through 1972
    when they changed back to blue and yellow.

    The Rams uniforms looked awesome in black-and-white.
    You have to be a certain age to appreciate this 🙂
    They looked awesome on tv, compared to other teams,
    back then. Maybe there’s a black and white youtube
    of the LA Rams back then, I dunno.

    FILE – In this Sept. 4, 1971 file photo, Los Angeles Ram’s Deacon Jones, center, knocks the ball loose from San Diego Chargers’ Mike Garrett in Los Angeles. Jones, the original sackmaster, has died. The Hall of Fame defensive end credited with terming the word sack for how he knocked down quarterbacks, was 74. The Washington Redskins said that Jones died of natural causes at his home in Southern California on Monday night, June 3, 2013. (AP Photo)
