Again, why would anyone ever build something like that in St. Louis? Hosting Final Fours in an open air stadium in St. Louis in late March/early April? NFL drafts in a small market?

Plus downtown St. Louis already has the Cardinals Ballpark Village 8 blocks south of the Dome. It already hosts stuff like the NCAA basketball regionals, Blues watch parties, Super Bowl watch parties. Plus Fox Sports Midwest has their studios there.

Does downtown St. Louis really need a Ballpark Village AND a Football Village?

Maybe.

But like I said if I was Stan I would have moved the Rams back to LA; I don't fault him for that. Our problem is with what he said and how he handled things.

I have never once heard a St Screwus fan mentioned how Georgia moved the team. Those peeps seem to be good with that. I see that as hypocritical. Georgia did so with almost ZERO approval of the other owners. They became afraid of another Al Davis type lawsuit. There were two votes. Dark days that have been restored properly.

Georgia could only do the move by selling 40% of the team to who?

Stan Kroenke.

Who negotiated the Doom lease and first right of refusal if the team was sold.

Maybe your anger should be directed at Georgia. I am one that is certain of that.

Ironic.

Let......it........go.........

So you're yelling at me about Georgia then ordering me to let it go?

Besides, Stan is still walking around in poorly fitted out-of-date double breasted suits and wearing sunglasses inside. Georgia is in a cemetery. If you want me to go yell at a grave, I will.

Kroenke became owner of the Rams in August 2010. He made a bid on the Dodgers January 2012. So seems to me L.A. was in the mix from early on.

But what i don't get about the St. Louis position is businesses have contingencies. So do cities. You make a bid on something, you lose out to another bidder, so you sue?

You'll need to pay airfare. . Georgia is buried at the Pierce Brothers Westwood Village Memorial Park and Mortuary, in Los Angeles, CA.

Also in January 2012, Jeff Fisher was hired. We know Kroenke asked Fisher in-depth questions about moving a team. So it's pretty clear that Stan was, at the very least, thinking about L.A. by then, if not earlier.

Georgia Frontierre: constantly described as a St. Louis "girl". Yet Georgia left town when she was 15 and didn't come back until 50 years later.

When she could be bothered to come to St. Louis on a rare occasion to see her Rams she'd fly back to LA as fast as possible. Then she was died she was buried in LA.

Maybe think of it as a strong suggestion.

Do whatever you need to do to stop being so annoying about your ex.

We get it! She cheated on you!

Stop whining! Nothing is going to change! She hates you! You hate her!

Thank you!

I've wondered just how much Stan was actually interested in the Dodgers. I mean, he put up a huge bid so obviously he was but I get the impression that that move was just one of the ways to get the Rams back to LA more than it was him wanting the Dodgers.

Of course, he doesn't have a MLB team on his resume' yet so I'm sure that it was a genuine interest but with an ulterior motive perhaps?
