LOUIS -- Six months after Stan Kroenke took away their football team, more than 40 former St. Louis Rams players and coaches took to the field Saturday at the Edward Jones Dome for a flag football game.Former wide receiver Isaac Bruce organized the event, with proceeds benefiting his foundation, which works to teach St. Louis youth the importance of education and a healthy lifestyle. Bruce brought his former teammates together to thank the fans for their support after Kroenke moved the franchise to Los Angeles on Jan. 12 following 21 years in St. Louis.It exceeded my expectations, man, Bruce said. Youve got friends, theyre still hanging around. It was great. They had a good time.For many of the players, it was a chance to relive memories of an era known as The Greatest Show on Turf, from 1999-2004, which saw the team make two Super Bowl appearances, winning the NFL championship in 1999.Youre right back in the locker room, said former defensive tackle DMarco Farr, who played in St. Louis from 1995-2000. No matter how loong youve been gone, no matter how long you havent been teammates, once you get together, youre teammates again.ddddddddddddDick Vermeil, who coached the team in the 1999 Super Bowl, and Mike Martz, who coached the team in the 2002 Super Bowl, returned to lead the squads along with former assistants Al Saunders and Jim Hanifan.It was such a classy thing for the St. Louis people to do because it could have been just the opposite, Vermeil said. In a way, the Rams have given them a reason not to like us anymore, but they came back and really showed class. I think everybody really appreciates it and I think they still appreciate us.More than 10,000 fans attended the event.At halftime, former All-Pro offensive tackle Orlando Pace was honored for his upcoming enshrinement in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.He was the MVP of what we were doing, Bruce said.
