St. Louis Gang: Cardinals to Rams rise sparks playoff push
St. Louis built a fan base around a long baseball tradition and a rough NFL history. The Cardinals moved in 1960, with stars like Smith Wilson Dierdorf Hart Metcalf Anderson and Green. After years of mediocrity they left for Phoenix in 1988, the Rams arrived in 1995 and after a 13-3 season and a 49-37 playoff win over Minnesota on Jan 16 they finally staged a dramatic rally against Tampa Bay. The city now witnesses a unlikely peak as a new chapter unfolds.
