It’s going to happen, and they should be pretty good by the time they make the move.

Yep —

The Rams will go full circle more than likely to land not far from the Coliseum.

There appears to be no interest in St Louis in meeting the Rams’ demands for upgrading the stadium at the cost of $700M.

What strange leases do these teams have? The lease in St. Louis requires them to be an upper tier facility, based on whatever criteria are listed to keep it a top facility? For the numbers listed, they may as well build a new stadium.

Can someone explain how it is that the public is expected to build billion dollar stadiums for profitable NFL franchises? Is the prestige of having an NFL franchise that great, that public officials negotiate agreements to subsidize NFL teams to such a degree?????
