And Elvis, doesn't that just frost you that StL could lie their way into our team for 1/3+ of our lives? Thanks to GF of course.
Glad that is over with and I lived long enough to see it.


Honestly, not as much as it probably should.

Georgia did what was in her best interest. Stan did what was in his best interest. Neither one was thinking about me. And really, the snowball out of L.A. started rolling with Rosenbloom's Anaheim plan...

Fair enough, but it frosts me. Of course defrosting now has special meaning to me.

I am super excited about the return, and to L.A. proper no less. It's amazing, fantastic.

The number one thing that brought the Rams back is economics. The economic opportunity of moving from St. Louis to L.A. is insane. We had the right owner and right history to make it happen...

What frosts me is the St. Louis media had access/knew about the lease and "top tier" clause all along, what it meant and decided to keep its implecations away from the public. No dobt in my mind, Nixon, Peacock, Blitz and the St. Louis media KNEW the Rams were gone when the lease was breached. They chose not to explain it to the public.

Problem for StL is they had a drug habit know as the NFL. Since day one in the first year StL defaulted on it's obligations. Blitz and other attorney's made the Rams a deal waive our default and we will split our court winning's with you. The NFL won the suit and StL over the next 20 years was forced to dig into it's own coffers to keep football in town as their make other's pay for our stadium plan did not yield the windfall's as promised. The CVC was censored for practices such as using earmarked money to pay to keep the Rams in town.

This has solely been about money and how from day one StL had none to live up to it's promise. The city developed a Ram addiction like a drug. An like a drug addict they were willing to break into their own family's homes' and steal from them so they could keep their drug addiction going. Which is just what Peacock and the other local pushers were selling and doing in their proposal.

Grubman and the NFL did a intervention and informed them they had a money problem and they were going broke from their addiction. So now like any convicted addict doing their time away from society. Ya have them saying it wasn't me I was framed.
