SA2K posted:Man, fans of teams that will never move coming in here and talking about how awesome and cool at is that two fanbases are about to lose their teams is a special kind of hosed up. THANK YOU! By the way, judging fanbases by how many of their hats or whatever you see is dumb. Everyone in St. Louis owns a Cardinals hat (and loves wearing them). I don't even really like baseball and I own one. No one owns a Rams hat - really who owns football hats that aren't stocking caps? the mean lunch lady fucked around with this message at 19:41 on Feb 21, 2015 |

Another thing that's out there ishttp://www.stltoday.com/sports/columns/bernie-miklasz/bernie-can-stl-be-the-next-cleveland-in-nfl/article_ea2bb1a4-9219-5ab1-9065-ed0611c4df97.html posted:"2. The NFL makes a Denver deal with Kroenke, who would be given first-in-line status to purchase the Denver Broncos should the franchise go up for sale in the next several years. This would undoubtedly have some appeal for Kroenke, who owns Denver-based teams in the NHL, NBA and MLS. By adding the Broncos to his properties, Kroenke would no longer be in violation of the NFL's rule prohibiting cross ownership.

Athanatos posted:I'd wager STL does not follow this rule. Even during the Greatest Show on Turf years, it was kinda like "This is nice, but when does baseball start back up?" Uh, what? The Dome was rocking in the GSOT days. Just look at the boxscores for the games from then. Early in '99 they weren't selling out because they were terrible the season, but later in the year and through 2001, they sold out every game.

Athanatos posted:I dont think even a decent QB would get STL back to that point though. It would take a really loving good team to pull them away from baseball again. They're not that far from selling out and it's not like the Cardinals and Rams play at the same time that often anyway. If the Rams were good, St. Louis would definitely strongly support them again. The Cardinals have been in St. Louis for over 100 years and good most of the time. The Rams have been there only 20 and have been bad the majority of the time. They get pretty good support despite that.

Zurreco posted:Residents would actually want them there. Residents could also probably afford to go to games. St. Louis city might be going downhill, but the suburbs are where everyone lives and STL still has a larger metropolitan area than San Antonio by a lot. The Rams aren't moving from a lack of support, they're moving because the owner wants the team to be worth more. Missouri can definitely justify having more than one team. It's not like the St. Louis and Kansas City are super close together where people from St. Louis wouldn't mind driving to see the Chiefs.

Tank44 posted:Challenger Space Shuttle explosion in like 3rd grade. Boom! 1986... When St Louis was in similar stages to lose the NFL Cardinals. The Cardinals leaving was St. Louis not wanting to build a stadium for a poo poo rear end team that was only good three seasons out of the 27 it was there, as well as bad attendance problems. At least this time they're willing to build one.

Ross Angeles posted:It would be cool if Oakland, San Diego, and St. Louis would put their feet down and not give in to what the teams want, and Oakland and San Diego are doing that. St. Louis is loving everything up. The people behind building the new stadium in St. Louis aren't giving in to what the team wants. Stan Kroenke wants to move to make more money, not because the stadium's bad. Sure the terms of the lease were broken leading to this, but the lease would only be good for 10 more years anyway. They are just showing the NFL they're willing to do whatever to keep the team there (which is fine to me because the EJD sucks a lot and the new stadium is outdoor and looks cool.)

Volkerball posted:The Raiders will go to a random city that hasn't even been mentioned before they stay in Oakland. The question is how long they stay on 1 year rentals of the Coliseum before they get something worked out to move. If they aren't a part of the LA deal, then the process of relocation starts at square 1 with no LA on the table, and it might be another 3-4 years before the Raiders play in a new stadium. I highly doubt it will by StL or SD though, because if those cities are capable of providing a deal for the NFL, then there's incentive for the owners to force the teams in those cities to get one done rather than do a swap for no reason. St. Louis has a stadium all ready to build. They just need a commitment from Stan (or someone else I guess).

I feel like the league is going to approve the Raiders and Chargers moving, since St. Louis actually has a plan and funding secured. The stadium task force worked closely with the the relocation committee to get it right. Of course I'll be wrong and without a team by next week WOO

axeil posted:gently caress that, the NFL should force them to work together. It's the only plan that makes sense. The Raiders absolutely have to have a new stadium, the Colosseum is literally falling apart and needs Solo cups everywhere to keep water from flooding things. The Chargers also need a new stadium though

This is canon (Every 9 years his teams go 13-3). chupacabraTERROR posted:I just don't see why the city should have to pay for the stadium, period. LA isn't going to pay for the Carson stadium, why should cities like SD who are too broke to fix potholes shovel cash into Spanos' pockets? SD has had its issues in the past 15 years with the pension crisis and lovely leaders, and now that they seem to be turning a new leaf, a billionaire comes in and demands a bunch of cash. If that's how the NFL works these days then good riddance. It's been like this for quite a while and to be honest I'm glad someone stood up to them and called their bluff. Dean Spanos claims they have to move to LA, so the Rams don't move there and steal the southern California market. Pretty triflin' imo
