Winner: Seattle, and still growing....St. Louis's claim to fame is Lewis and Clark ditched there to come here...
Name:
Seattle: Named after a local Duwamish chief named Sealth. His grave on Bainbridge Island looks at his namesake city.
St. Louis: Named after French King Louis IX who died of the Bubonic Plague during the Crusades.
Winner: Seattle, anyone who dies of the Plague really doesn't win...Do they? Besides America was 200+years from being discovered when ol' Lou kicked the bucket.
Nickname:
Seattle: Emerald City

Winner: Seattle....St. Louis stopped being a "Gateway to the West" after they invented that thing we call a choo choo train..

Winner: Seattle...Though any town that loses a team isn't a "winner", WOW...St. Louis has had 3 NFL Teams move or fold, 2 NBA Teams, 2 MLB teams, an NHL Team, AND an ABA team for good measure..About the only thing they haven't lost is Women's Underwater Checkers....You might be able to add these same Lambs to the toteboard if Los Angeles has it's way.
