NFL panel meets with backers of Carson Inglewood stadium proposals - LA Times
Rams to L.A., Chargers 80% in SD, 20% as tenants in Inglewood, Raiders stay in Oakland.
The best solution for the NFL is to not alienate 2 markets (Oakland & San Diego) for the sake of a small failed market in STL. The NFL will likely choose to use the relocation fee to help solve the Stadium financing of SD & Oakland.
I believe that the NFL has been aggressively pushing the "2 team" theory as a way to retain use of the leverage that Los Angeles has provided for the past twenty years. I do not, for a minute, think that the NFL owners think it wise to experiment in LA with 2 mediocre teams. Stan has the team, the property, and the business acumen to be the NFL's dream-owner in LA. His team has MASSIVE history here, and it is a public relations dream to promote a 50th season in LA, along with the re-establishment of the sport in the entertainment capital of the WORLD. I have ZERO doubts that the Rams are returning. None. Those of you who do doubt it will see soon enough.
There's only going to be 2 teams in SoCal ...
I happen to think there will be one team in Los Angeles, one in San Diego, one in San Francisco, and one in Oakland, as God and Nature intended. I think those days were great days for the NFL, and the NFL has taken a beating lately. They could do worse than to go classic. It's what California deserves. The natural balance.#larams#truecalifornia
with the two home team design of Kroenke's new Inglewood stadium, the NFL will be able to continue to use the LA threat.
he carson plan is not even funded and will have to go through a maze of environmental studies being on a landfill...plus all the future settling issues would make it seem that this site will be a money pit...sorta like my house.
All the people who have evaluated these scenarios say that if you're going to have two teams in the market, you can't let one have an established base and start over the other," Policy said." So Mr. Policy isn't that the exact situation with the Chargers and the Raiders.
Policy is too stupid to realize that if the Raiders and Chargers moved here, that the Raider fans would overwhelm the place.
I read an article that said the Rams were willing to help the Chargers and Raiders secure funding in their own markets. I wonder what that is based off of. As soon as I find it again I will post it. Maybe a huge chunk of relocation fee goes to SD or something.
CAME FROM VINNIE.
Carson will not happen, they will need public money. Will not happen, Owners of both teams are using site, to get their stadium in their city. After this year, they will not have a chance, when the NFL decides on the Return of the LA RAMS!
Beebe: Glad you have finally accepted it. But you also forgot everyone in STL is a hick. Lol.
I got nothing against STL other than I do see ironies. Thomas Sularski is correct! The very rules and regulations that some people in STL are screaming shouldmake it impossible for the Rams to leave STL, are the same rules and regulations that were ignored and let them move to STL.
As you can see from this group, most LA football fans don't want the city to get two NFL teams, they would rather just have the Rams. I'm just guessing, but if STL was offered two NFL teams instead of the Rams, they would jump on it!
Is it ironic that STL insisted Georgia Frontiere sell 30% or 40% of the team to local STL businessman Stan Kroenke believing with that kind of pull, Kroenke would keep the Rams in STL. As minority owner, he probably wanted the team to stay in STL. When he became the majority owner, his priorities changed.
STL feels cheated and used. LA felt the same way in 1995. Difference is in LA we had 2 idiot owners to deal with: Al Davis and Frontiere! We lost two teams in a matter of months and no one enforced any relocation rules for us.
