Sorry, I didn't mean to refer to the Rams as jingoists. I was really just being a smartass and using the word patriot in a different context.

Truth be told, I have yet to watch a single Super Bowl game and I'm trying to maintain my perfect record. I confess that one year, I forget which, I slipped up and somehow became aware of the teams that were slated to compete. That year was a close call. Until Sandy mentioned the Rams, I had no idea who else might be on the field.

And, in the spirit of A. Conan Doyle (A Study In Scarlet) “...Now that I know it, I shall try to forget it.” <g>
