St Louis already told the Rams they wouldn’t upgrade Edward Jones Dome, which means that the Rams could legally break their lease and move....that’s why I think it’s almost a done deal that the Rams will return to LA.
so, St. Louis is planning to use the Edward Jones Dome as the world’s largest flea market or something?
I’m sure they can host a tractor pull or two, like the Pontiac Silverdome.
Wrigley Field(Chicago) was “configured” a couple of years ago as a “Football” Field for a “Big 10” Game(Northwestern V sombody I think). Made “Kind-Of” a “Neat” FB “Field”.
The devils of the angels!
A) Nobody knows where that is.
B) They may not have the money to spend.
C) Too close to Detroit, maybe?
Someone needs a new stadium...
When they played that Wrigley Field game both teams only ran plays towards one end. One end zone ran smack dab into the brick outfield wall and it was deemed “unsafe”.
Ohio Could send them a pro football team but I don’t think the Buckeyes would want to move.
About midway between Buffalo and Toronto. A few hours out of Detroit.
I wonder if people in Buffalo would just become Steelers fans, then?
no!
La Raza de Los Angeles?
Except for the occasional hurricane and more frequent thunder storms Florida has an abundance of fair weather. The fan base have to be wimps ... ask any NFL fan who attends late season games in Buffalo, Cleveland, Chicago, Green Bay, Denver.
The Rams are headed back to LA. They are at an impasse with St. Louis. Lease is up in 2014 and they can go year to year in St. Louis until a new LA stadium is built.
Exactly.
It’s kind of a play on “The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.”
Could yes, will not. The LA threat is too powerful. Almost every team in the league has gotten a new or refurbed stadium since LA became empty, and some of them are old enough that the teams are starting to gripe about them. The lack of a team in LA is a license to get taxpayer money.
It ain’t about the weather. Heck even when they’re good, the Dolphins rarely sell out.
Ditto.
I would’ve bet the Vikes but Minnesota caved in and wote a blank check to the team owners.
