expect Rams to be back in LA next year.

 
very interesting video on the raiders and a's how they need the city and the city needs them.

 
great stuff on the raiders situation.

I've been a season ticket holder the past 3 years and only seen 1 game that was blacked out on tv. yes, even though i go to the games irecord each one to see the play executions. prior to being a season ticket holder i was a half season type of guy. and it was blackouts on tv. after al davis died it was questions about them going to l.a. and that is why we started paying for season tickets, getting involved in the whole politics tiresome shit, and reminding the oakland raiders that we will make the commitment to attend if you genuinely show that you want to stay. and i can say that mark davis is listening and meeting us half way now.

ALERT, DEADLINE COMING: Owners of the Oakland Raiders, St. Louis Rams and San Diego Chargers will offer their most detailed stadium plans to date at the meetingApril 22 in New York, numerous sources said last week. Those presentations will include details on architecture, financing and the political process in their efforts. This means the Oakland Raiders, City of Oakland and Alameda County should have a specific proposal on Coliseum City ready to show directly to NFL executives and evaluate the market assessment. This is pretty much the final passage to let the NFL know that Oakland is an important viable option for the Raiders.

“The committee expects details, progress reports, design plans, financing, risk factors, what to expect and when,” said one source close to the committee. That would constitute by far the most thorough update the six owners have received since NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell appointed them to the committee in February.

The Rams, Raiders and Chargers each declined to comment.

Lets see here, Rams owner is footing the bill for 1.86 billion dollar stadium. His team (Rams) are free of any lease obligations in STL. Rams figure to jump from 930 million in franchise value to over 2 billion in franchise value. Rams move to LA takes them from a populace of around 2.5 million to 18 million in LA. Wow, sounds like they're moving to me Tom.

It's gonna get built. Their coming back! Everything going on right now from the NFL is a dog and pony show.

The Edward Jones Dome will be a tomb this year! You thought last year was bad!

Interview with Alex Marvez starts about 3/4 of the way into the segment.

"They don't want any team to already have one foot in Los Angeles as the 2015 season gets underway...It's going to be tough enough for the Rams. I mean who's going to show up in St. Louis knowing you got a sitting duck team?"

"...it becomes a race between the Chargers and Raiders...the Rams are just considered fait accompli to be in Los Angeles..."

Again more significant developments. As the NFL pushes more and more to expedite the financials of the new Riverfront, it seems Missouri and especially the city of StL are going backwards! Instead of unity under urgency of the Rams moving, it looks like more legal divisions in the most critical time! With so many open lawsuits and unclear pathways how does any rational person see a short term maturity or resolution to this stadium issue this year? No way, the Peacock Plan will not come to fruition this year! StL is in a financial quicksand, the more they try, the deeper they sink in more litigation. So many legal issues that require time and to unravel on both the state and city level, wow what a legal circus!! City counselor is suing the city for a public vote. The Dome Authority is suing the city for no public vote. The mayor has no clue or position. Governor can't figure out the ambiguity of his state legislature's position and Stan has not said a word about his financial commitment to StL! Really StL? You going to have the financials ready for the NFL for the new stadium soon? You don't only not have your ducks in order, hell..... your ducks haven't even hatched yet. Welcome LA Rams!!
 
And there it is again, as the pre season Ram opponents were announced, another article encouraging StL Rams' fans to buy "every ticket" this year. The 2015 StL Rams season is a lame duck, pure and simple. The only reason the Rams are still in StL is because of the NFL's LA housekeeping. Now, you understand the genius of one Stan Kroenke, he will make money on false hope, which is this: if we show up and represent, Stan Kroenke will keep the Rams in StL. It seems you, StL believe the poisoned well between you and Stan will be sweet water in 6 months if now you pack the EJD. This why he is holding his tongue until the end of the year, you will not show up if he announces his move now. Not a chance StL, no way. Since 2010, you have treated a home grown son, who brought you the Rams 20 years ago, as a second class citizen to your flagship Cardinals, you ignored third party arbitration to keep the EJD top tier, as you promised, broke the lease, forced him into $9 tickets and 50% off merchandise promotions, and engaged in a campaign of media character assassination from your sport writers and even recently suggested a billboard embarrassing him in the middle of StL by your local booster FaceBook page (LTRISTL). You think all of this will just simply be forgotten in 6 months if you buy tickets now? How naive StL. OK, please then, go buy tickets, buy merchandise, hotdogs and your Pepsi too, heck pull the seats out after the last game if you want a souvenirs too, Stan Kroenke is taking his boys home to LA! You know, I can criticize Stan for one think, he should have learned something from the Football Cardinals in 1987, because history is definitely repeating itself here, but, wait, well, maybe I shouldn't fault him too much, he did give his home town a second chance at NFL. So sure, go buy all the Rams tickets StL, eat that false hope a very shrewd business man is offering you: yup, if you now show your support the next 6 months all is forgotten and forgiven with Stan (I am trying not to laugh to finish this post) I'll finish with this, have you ever wonder what problem makes a man who brings a NFL team to his home town ends up taking that same team back? ANSWER.you st lou.
 
  • Any relocation fee is just highly speculative. There's no set amount. Twenty years ago, the Rams paid only $47 million for a relocation fee. Plus, the Raiders were not assessed a relocation fee at all when they moved back to Oakland.

    Rick GoodwinThe Raiders were not assessed a relocation fee for 2 reasons. First that they never should have left the market and that the Raiders created the Oakland market not the NFL. The Rams also had to pay $30 million to Anaheim and 12.5 million for the loss on the revenue from the FOX tv contract
