Lomax to Green 84
Hall of Famer
I am a lifer Cards fan so this one is before the team moved to the desert:
1987-With the 6th selection in the 1987 NFL draft the St. Louis Cardinals select Kelly Stouffer Quarterback Colorado State University.
I was a huge Miami Hurricanes fan and absolutely loved Jerome Brown DT from Miami. I had my draft guide all ready, I had plotted and planned the perfect scenerio that would allow the Cards to get Jerome Brown (who actually was projected to go earlier) and when the team selecting before the Cards passed on Brown I just knew that he was going to end up a Cardinal.
I swore I would never be a fan again after that fiasco. Of course I forgave them and then suddenly tried to justify why Stouffer was going to be a good pick.
Its hell being a Cards fan sometimes.
