personally i don't think the market studies will be released to the public here's why. let's say the rams are allowed to move to la but the st louis market study is exactly what the nfl is looking for in a market. why would they let the rams move with such a market study? my guess is that st louis promised certain things to entice the rams to move there, they did not fulfill that promise and stan no longer wishes to partner up with the city again. i am also sure he has told the nfl/owners that he no longer trusts the city of st louis.

Market studies are even worse than stats. Talk about information that can be manipulated to support one's agenda.

I really don't care what their market study shows. If it's like any of the other "studies" I've seen, it's imperfect to say the least. Taking a sampling of 6,000 people out of 10 million? How is that going to show anything substantial? That's .006% of the population. It's statistically irrelevant.

I'm not directing this to you in particular, your post just made me think of it.

I enjoy your posts and agree that "market studies" can be manipulated. However, pretty small sample sizes can be very effective indicators of the overall population. It happens all the time with polling and although they are sometimes off, more often than not they are very accurate.

I just don't think in this case it would be accurate. It isn't just the fact that it's such a small percentage, we have no idea which 6,000 people the league polled.

Well, God knows Mike Connors was a Ram fan.

Mannix, how cool is that? As soon as i saw that picture somehow i knew that was Peggy, and i probably haven't seen that show since, i don't know when, elementary school? I remember one where got hit on the head and lost a whole day, it was called What About Sunday (looked it up but i remembered the gist of it on my own)...

Krekor Ohanian is his real name for those Armenians in the crowd. Now I have that theme song running through my head. lol Sonic branding at work again.
Just another celebrity Rams fan from the LA Rams days. There's plenty more waiting for you here Los Ramos.

Bleh! It's the circle the wagons and feel sorry for ourselves in the relocation thread over there. Everything is somebody else's fault quit picking on us and boohoo Stan isn't in front of a mic telling us everything we already know. Time to take time off from that thread until Aug 11th.

ROD is a St. Louis website. You know, I just can't believe the mod there would call upon the name of Georgia as if it would help his point that the LA Ram fans should stand down on SK not speaking. Frankly, every time I see her name, I think of St. Louis as being very willing participants in stealing the Rams from LA. This does not help his point...at least with me.
