There are many animals which you would not dare cross
paths with, unless you are doing a segment for MTV's program, "The Wild
Boys" or a show like the ones for the Discovery Channel which deals
with the creation of documentations for these animals. Such animals,
like the Black Mamba is one of the feistiest and fastest snakes in the
world and is regarded by many as the deadliest snake in the whole
world. In the deadly waters of the Amazon, one would not dare put their
legs down the water as it may be filled with carnivorously biting
Piranhas or even the preying crocodiles nearby. If you are familiar
with those Spanish shows that deal with raging bulls, you may have seen
one of those unwanted scenarios where the matador would actually be hit
by the bull, then you would know that in the first place, individuals
should not even be getting in the way of these fired up beasts that can
crack our bones if we are hit. Want a junior of these bulls? What about
rams? They can hit you hard like these bulls, but are actually lighter
and faster. Not a bad combination right? Speed and power is the perfect
knock anyone out.
It is no surprise that the St Louis team named
their football team under that animal. The St. Louis Rams is definitely
living up to the animal which they have chosen. After all, what more
could you want than power, speed, and accuracy in hitting your
opponents. And indeed this team packs a mean punch when they are out
there in the field. The franchise already has two NFL Championships and
one Super Bowl championship under its belt. Like many other teams in
the NFL, this team is no stranger to the shifting as with terms of
"residency". Prior to being based in St. Louis, the Rams originally
started in Cleveland. Afterwards, for fifteen seasons, the team then
moved to Anaheim, Los Angeles as the Los Angeles Rams. At the year
1995, this is then when the club has been staying in St Louis up to the
present. Although it still is owned by the same individual, the NFL
allowed it to be a separate entity since the no part of the previous
management joined the movement and only four of the players rode with
the team. And now looks like the Rams are on their way to continue
their rampage in knocking out the other teams in the NFL.
The
owner of this club surely did choose a good name. Considering that it
is a football team, what more would any person want that drive through
any other opponent. Rip them, and bury them to the ground! That is how
a ram would finish its opponents. Football then would be the sport to
bring out the ram in all of us. Let the animal inside be set free and
do its own thing. So what animal would you be, the predator or the prey?
