The most certain thing is that the Rams will be playing in Inglewood when the stadium is ready to go.

What did I tell you guys??? The NFL better be VERY careful here. One wrong move and they're in deep crap!!!

Crybaby Stan is being a prick about the whole thing, which is the whole reason why I want Inglewood to fail. I really hope for him having to tuck his tail between his legs and crawl back to St. Louis after the vitriol he spewed about them last week.

Yup, at this point Stan will do whatever the hell he wants. Try to stop him? Not only will he see you in court, but he could invite a congressional investigation into league business practices...

That's not how business like this works. He's reminding them who's in charge and it isn't them!!!
OK I do understand where you are coming from. At the same time you are dealing with a process and a room full of big egos. Tread lightly and carry a big stick. He will do what he wants in the end.

Maybe the other owners are tired of his bully tactics?? If they don't stand up to him now Stan and Jerry will run this league and do what ever they want and stomp on everyone. the old school owners who built this league should stand up to him.

The vote on #rams to Inglewood that nearly passed. Was rams only. Other options still in play. Including Rams/chargers. The "Jerry Plan"

Doesn't matter, the league has already screwed itself and broken their own rules/laws. Because of this, in the end, Stan wins...

The league could also bust him on not getting rid of majority interest in both the Avalanche and Nuggets after giving him years to do so. So his hands are far from clean and would have a fight on his hands I believe.

Actually they can't, the other teams are in the name of his son Josh...

And all these owners are use to litigation. Anything Stan does wont happen over night it could take years. And they all know it.

Not really, the NFL already dealt with that issue. It is done with, Stan is good to go on that front.

Stan can afford years, he could hold them up in court for the rest of his life on this issue. Plus all the things the NFL doesn't want you to know about their behind the scenes practices could/would come out. That's BIG trouble for the NFL...

If they recommended the landfill, wouldn't that mean that they'd vote for Kroenke's idea since everything that comes out of his mouth is trash?

Stan signed a document after Goodell approved the Rams as a relocation candidate in which he agreed not to litigate against the NFL.

Okay, I'll handle this a different way, since you think my statement is above the clouds, such as a 'rainbow'.

GNG, I'm an LA fan and I've shown excitement whether my LA or St Louis teams have been a winner. This makes your statement a broad brush stroke, like I said. Sorry you have a problem with being wrong, but in this instance you are.

I am working out season tickets amongst some LA Rams fans here in LA, so we can get our tickets all in the same area, and we are excited! Even without a team in the area, I think that shows a long term commitment and an extraordinary excitement for a losing team such as the St. Louis Rams. Again, sorry my friend but once again this shows your broad brush strokes are wrong.

I do know what you are saying though, you feel the old LA teams were not supported in the past. Those are lies that Georgia FrontAndRearie manipulated and fronted in the past for the casual fans to consume. We supported the Rams, hell we led the NFL in attendance for years! When we weren't lied too, lied by GF for those nauseating years, we were the jewel of the NFL in attendance!

Of the 49 years here in LA, she led this team to the gutter for those last 13! Those are the years everyone speaks of, those are the years we rebelled! Hell, some of us thought she was responsible for murdering our owner Carroll Rosenbloom!

Sounds very similar to how Stan is treating St .Louis.

God only knows the truth, but even the NFL owners blamed her for the teams misfortunes and downward turn and blocked her move to Baltimore because of it, and then again even in St. Louis, but Pete gave in towards the end and eventually awarded her the move to St. Louis with her threat of an anti-trust lawsuit.

Them are the facts and a lot of us old timers know the whole story.

Sorry if this is news to you.

Bob Iger is a very smart man. He has done wonders with Disney.

And since he was brought in illegally by Jerry Richardson, the better Iger and his presentation is, the stronger Stan's case against the NFL gets

AS LTR has more than adequately stated, if the owners screw this up, Stan is going to have a field day in court with Goodell and all of the dirty laundry is going to be exposed. Goodell knows it and he is going poop his pants here pretty shortly because if Stan doesn't get his Rams only proposal passed, hello ninth circuit and the bloodshed will commence with the NFL losing this one bigtime!!
