I would if I were them. They suck, lots of added pressure now being a team in LA. Half these dudes are going to lose their job because they aren't winning in LA, yet would be still employed had they stayed in STL.

The move to Los Angeles was a dumpster fire.

Rams should move back, give the opportunity to the Chargers, see how they do.

LAX S-U-X. They should just condemn that POS airstrip and be done with it. Plenty of other airports in the area.

Fixed.

The extension in LA after a failed season shows that the location matters little

My family ALWAYS flies into LAX.

Me: You know I'm like 15 minutes from Ontario right?

Them: But LAX is $30 cheaper.

Me: Of course. And the 100 mile round trip from my place is free!

Yep, I live 15 minutes from Laguardia. If you want me to pick you up from there, no problem...but if you fly into Newark, you're on your own.

We have family in Rancho/Fontana, so Ontario is a no-brainer.

Ontario is alright, but John Wayne is the business. I live about equidistant from both and always go with John Wayne.

Not only that, but I drive past two other airports that are closer and easier to get in and out of on the way to LAX. And it's not any closer, but I'd rather drive to Burbank.

BTW, I work in Rancho, two minutes north of the Airport.

Chargers will be leasing from the Rams. Money hand over fist for Kroenke.

Timing on that was quite funny I must admit. Still, I think Fisher kept his job because the Rams had to move and not because people in STL were okay with an awful coach. But the good news is that he was fired before Goff and Gurley got ruined.

*old lady* "I didn't know Los Angeles still had a team."

How much does it cost to relocate a team. The idea sounds doubly dumb.

$550M just for the right to move the team in this latest case. Of course there are actual costs on top of that.

Minimum $550,000,000 goes to other owners.....no really.




In 1995, the average NFL team value was $160 million (back then, my colleague Kurt Badenhausen and I were calculating valuations for Financial World magazine). So the league was charging 29%. If the Rams move to Los Angeles, they will have to pay the league $550 million. But now the average team value is $2 billion.Jan 6, 2016
For Rams, NFL Relocation Fee Would Be Same Price As 20 Years Ago
