,,, poor attendance in LA when even though it had almost nothing to do with the team moving back to LA, it gave Stan a ton of ammunition to say that keeping a team in St. Louis would severely damage the entire NFL.

is this one of those oxymoron's? or just a conflict in agendas?

You are correct though, it has nothing to do with it..

Honestly, the stadium looked like a lot of empty seats on the screen.

But seriously, last year was: boring as fuck. If you were not a true Rams fan.

This game was fun!!!!!! I expect if this continues, seats will be full.

Plus, it is LA. And let's face it: our players are hot. so are their wives/gfs. If they keep playing fun, LA will come.

It's LA.

Rams moved because they moved to the number 2 TV market in US, Kroenke will have a stadium hosting 2 teams, and countless other events and 2028 Olympics He's negotiating with Clippers for Inglewood stadium. Rams more that doubled in valuation.

Why Kroenke moved and why NFL liked it. Asses in seats is 1995 talk.

Where did you hear that?

Asses in seats is 1995 talk.

Which is why the next NFL stadium might have 40,000 or 50,000 seats tops.

it has everything to do with LA Rams fans complaining when the Ed Jones Dome wasn't full

you are making this out to be something that it isn't ... the seats were empty because of last year's team.... there was NO ENTERTAINMENT VALUE to last year's team. I think that was the main reason the seats were empty ... if the offense continues to play like game 1 of 2017, then the seats will be mostly full.

it's hypocritical for St. Louis Rams fans to say anything about poor attendance in LA ....two glass houses ... throwing rocks

I'm a fan of the Rams no matter what city they play in. Besides, I haven't lived in the St. Louis area for 10 years.

No need for you to be disingenuous, and make untrue assertions. There is nothing related to St. Louis that was a factor in the empty seats of game 1 of 2017

a minute and a half into the game, looks pretty full to me, ha ha.... i dunno gang, i'm a bit worried the rams might go out of businesses if this keeps up!

btw, that's a fun-ass twitter page that guys has, "empty seats galore", ha ha, take a spin through the jpegs he has, some of the college game shots are hysterical....

Bonsignore reports about 48,000 there. Say what you will about TOTAL attendance......it should be better in Southern California.....but don't compare it to the last few seasons in St. Louis. The Dome held about 66,000 and half of the fans in the stands wore visiting jerseys. Let's see how many Ram fans show up for the Redskins game.

but don't compare it to the last few seasons in St. Louis.

thank you ... i don't understand how assumptions tilted it that way

at the end of 2016 a lot of season ticket holders were dismayed with the product on the field. a lot threatened to not renew ... and I think some did not renew ... and it was based on the product on the field

from looking at yesterday's pics from other stadiums, it seems that this is a trend in the NFL

the TV experience has gotten so much better, also no parking hassle, no drunk strangers to deal with, don't have to pay stadium prices for food and beverages

I wonder what the ratio is ... of the number of NFL wide season ticket holders vs the number of NFL wide Sunday Ticket subscribers.

Are you saying there was entertainment value to be had in St. Louis in 2007 (3-13) 2008 (2-14) 2009 (1-15) and 2011 (2-14)? Are you saying that St. Louis fans have no right to throw the same barbs that were thrown at them from Los Angeles?
