I think you meant NOT viable on the Kroenke side.

Spanos has no leverage now.

StL is not viable.

Carson can't gurantee a date.

What cards does Spanos have? No way the NFL is going to keep Rams in STL now given it's unviable proposal. Spanos can't threaten Carson any longer. So, Stan is certainly in Inglewood now. What's Spanos going to do about it?

But if StL is not viable, and Carson can't guarantee a stadium date, what does Stan have to lose? Seems like worst case for Stan is that he has to take-on Spanos as a partner with terms that aren't the best for him.

They can't just throw all of this back onto Stan now? The NFL committees are now exposing the StL proposal. Fans in StL are going to be pissed, and they should be... but not at Stan, they should be pissed at their own leadership and media for selling everyone a bill of goods.


tears will be shed and no one will care.

Roggins clarified that it was Scott Reed of the Orange County Register that provided the info.

One huge thing I read is that each city would have to guarantee an opening date for their stadium to be considered viable. That's a huge blow to Carson.

Not worried since in order for that to be the case the league would have to offer something substantial to offset signing away his right to sue.
