Rams 17, Lions 10: The Rams first win of the season...in pictures

by Ryan Van Bibber on Nov 2, 2009 11:32 AM CST in 2009 St. Louis Rams regular season

Wins, like people, come in all shapes and sizes, but, like your mother said, you must accept all people as they are...or something like that. The St. Louis Rams picked up their first win of the season this week, against the Detroit Lions, and like those vicious little animals called human beings, there was just as much to like as to dislike. But, in the end, a win is a win, and it still feels good.

And that's it for my up with people pep talk. I'm going back into my mother's basement, pajama-clad, to drink three more jugs of Mountain Dew Code Red, eat bulk cheese balls from Costco, and blog about the Rams. Regardless of whether or not you're surfing from the comfort of mom's basement or the office, here's some photos of the Rams win for your viewing pleasure. They cover the highlights and lowlights before ultimately getting you back to high life again, celebrating the Rams first win of the season. Enjoy.

We'll return to our regularly scheduled fingerpointing shortly.

Lions fan here

congrats on the win. I was at the game and both teams were bad, but you guys can feel better knowing your team is not the worst in the NFL.
Cheers and cold victory beers to you guys, you’ve all earned it.

Thanks

For your classy gesture JazzyBBP. We still have a long way to go and will not make any guarantees about the postseason this year.

Stafford will be a good NFL QB, but he needs an OL and receivers who consistently hold onto the ball. Kinda sounds like our situation too.

Hey maybe if the Rams lost those pansie ass white see thru pants and went back to blue pants they might play better but they would sure look better !!!!

Either is better than the gold pants.

Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.

I hate the tightie whities too.

I wish we’d go back to blue and yellow. But, the blue pants would help.

Blue and white we’re pretty snazzy.

I dig the Greatest Show on Turf superbowl uniforms

They just looked fast. Kinda flashy with the gold.
Second, the late-era LA blue and yellow. That was my time to learn about and start loving the Rams, and I think those unis are classic.

Lived in LA during the Rams and Raiders days. Now based in NorCal, I am still a die hard Rams fan and Raiders season ticket holder.
