@miklasz: "What if St. Louis lines everything up, just as the NFL wants, only to have the league choose Kroenke as the winner of the LA sweepstakes? Suppose the NFL decides that Kroenke’s stadium plan is too attractive to pass up, and allows the Rams to move? This is the league’s big problem... One that presents an enormous test of ethics... How does the NFL manage to reward Kroenke but also take care of St. Louis? How does the NFL pat Kroenke on the back without stabbing the backs of Nixon, Peacock and Blitz?"
Bernie Stadium project is a test of ethics for NFL Sports
these comments below from LA RAM fans tell the truth how st louis hack hack writer Bernie is indeed delusional and in denial.

very informative comments from LA RAM fans below.














60,000 vs 80,000. Plus the CVC walked away from the Arbitrators ruling. At that point, neither the Rams nor the NFL owed STL anything after this season. In fact, the team could have moved already, if not for the NFL wanting to give the Chargers and Raiders more time to arrange stadium deals in their respective cities.
The only 'test of ethics' that matters here is the one STL already failed, by refusing to live up to the lease agreement.
They are? News to me. From what I've seen, they've made the same terrible offer all along and insisted the Rams and NFL must go along with it.
Ed, it doesn't matter if STL could or could not upgrade the EJD to the top 25% of the league. That's what the lease that STL signed called for, what the Arbitrator affirmed, and what STL refused to honor. So the Rams are leaving.
Also ironic that Nixon wants the NFL to save football in St. Louis when in fact he threatened to sue the League when they stole football from L.A. . They will right the wrong.
The fact that there was no formal investigation or autopsy done which the spouse is usually the 1st suspect. The will had been changed just 6 months prior to his death. The will change was to avoid estate taxes and not lose a large portion to the government "trusting" Georgia to do the right thing. She was 30 minutes late to his funeral. 6 months after Carol's death she is living with her later 7th husband. Oh and around that same time frame she fires Steve Rosenbloom as Vice president (who was part of the operations of the 70's Rams team) and takes full control. Ironic the Rams players loved the Rosenblooms, but hated Georgia.
Yes, it was never proven in a court of law or even formally investigated. But O.J. wasn't convicted murder IN court either. Some things aren't too hard figure out.
Was it a test of ethics when Georgia inherited the team and moved them away from LA in the first place? St Louis wouldn't even have the Rams if Rosenbloom didn't die.
she was living with her 7th husband and fired her 6th husband's son from the team months after his death. Oh and 6 months prior to his death the will was changed. Those are facts.
Ya, It's just nutty to think might have been foul play.
I don't know why St Louis fans or even crying you did it to yourself and I don't even know why you want the NFL to step in because the NFL voted an 94 that the Rams couldn't leave Los Angeles in the first place and yet the Wicked Witch from San Luis threatened to sue and so she was able to up and rip the blue and gold out of the city of angels all I can say to you is paybacks are a bitch paybacks are a bitch!!!!!!
It all comes down to the terms of the lease. Once the CVC announced that it would not fulfill the agreement, it was a done deal. Kronke & the Rams have the right to go to a year to year lease to play in the dome or to move the franchise as they see fit. All the rest of what STL is trying to accomplish with a supposed new stadium means absolutely nothing. The NFL is not going to pass up the best opportunity to bring football back to Southern California. Shovels are in the ground in Inglewood. The owners are not going to pass up the relocation $$$ they will receive along with their votes. It's just a matter of time now.
The only one who has failed ethics here is St. Louis. Rather than keep their word on the top tier clause, they've come up with a unilateral offer of hundreds of millions of dollars less to try to force the team to stay.
Not going along with a scheme is not a lack of ethics. Doing this kind of scheme IS.
Rams won arbitration, St. Louis declined to meet their terms, Rams are free agents. No ethical problems by the NFL or Rams whatsoever.
The people and media in St. Louis love to ask if the NFL will be ethical about this process. Was it ethical to allow the Rams to move after the move was voted down overwhelming? Was it ethical to use LA as leverage for the last 20 years? Is it ethicalto circumvent the law and put the tax payers in St Louis 500 million in debt without a vote? The way I see it the only truly ethical thing to do is return the Rams to their rightful home! I wonder how St Louis will like being used as leverage for the next decade?
St. Louis already violated their contract. They decided not to honor their end of the bargain and ignore what the arbitrator said. It doesn't matter what St. Louis does now. They violated the original terms. They can't magically just say hey we're building a new stadium and everything is fixed.
I would say that St. Louis has already failed the test of ethics. I would point him to his own article that he wrote back in '95 filled with hate and vitriol toward LA when St. Louis was the villain and LA was the victim. I would point him to St. Louis not living up to their end of the lease agreement. I would point him to how they are mangling a law, specifically written to prevent public funds from being spent without a vote. I would point them to the bogus lawsuit where the city is suing itself.
But most of all, I would point him at the utter hypocrisy in all of it. Claiming that Georgia is a saint, but Kroenke is the devil. That LA didn't support the team despite having a bad owner and a losing record, but St. Louis' lack of support should be excused due to a bad owner and losing record. And Nixon's own words from '94, where he calls the league a cartel and threatens to sue if they try to prevent the Rams from moving from an existing market, yet now he expects the league to abide by those same rules to keep the Rams in the existing market.
Nixon is a hypocrite. They failed the ethics test, not the league or the Rams.
What happened when Nixon tried to sue the NFL when the bitch Georgia stabbed LA in the back and moved the team?? I say KARMA IS A BITCH SCREW ST LOUIS BRING OUR TEAM BACK.
I'll also point out that this kind of nonsense is precisely why the forums at the St. Louis Post-Dispatch ban pretty much any L.A. fan. So no one can point out there how stupid this idea is, and certain St. Louis fans can continue living in denial.
Stop crying already. Ethics my ass. Kroenke gave you guys plenty of chances to make right on the stadium issue. Only when you guys realized that he was serious about moving to LA did you make an effort to keep them there and then comes the copycat Raiders and Chargers wanting a piece of the pie. It's his team and should be able to move them at will. The power of the dictator commissioner should not come in play. Kroenke will take the NFL to court if he has to.
Well the rams are headed back to LA no matter what happens bernie miklasz is dumbass he in denial just like joe strauss,shane gray & jim thomas st louis doesn't have the funding for a riverfront stadium lastly bernie the crybaby miklasz can cry & complain all he wants but when it's all said & done the stl rams are history & the rebirth of LA Rams begins
Bernard is in full panic mode
Bernie grasping at straws as usual...
No doubt Bernie Miklasz is addicted to narcotics and fast food.
excellent informative comments from LA RAM fans above^
