If I'm Kroenke and I've spent all this time, money, research, effort, etc. into building the most fantastic NFL stadium/mecca that the world has ever seen, I can't see myself being thrilled at the prospect of someone being forced on me at the 11th hour who's going to share in all the rewards.

It it was me, I'd say "fine". You want to build the Carson stadium? Go right ahead and I'll build Inglewood and we'll see which one does better.

Kroenke has made all of this happen and presented the league with not only a viable plan to return to LA, to do it in style and usher in a new era of what the NFL game day experience should be like. If they want to crap on that, then I'd go rogue and let them try and develop their toxic site.

Stan gets F*****, the Rams get F*****, the NFL gets F*****.

The owners are for what is best for themselves. Rams in Inglewood andthey will not let this opportunity go by.

I would have liked the 'committee' to have abstained, but the key here is that Spanos/Charaiders /Carson won't get 24 votes.

Everyone is worried, that's all. We all want what makes the most sense in every category, but people like Spanos are in charge so it seems that anything is possible. The political nature trumps even the best poker hand.
Still in the end, common sense and money will prevail. Spanos is just grinding Kroenke for more of his so he can call off his yap dogs. (or are they lap dogs if ya know what I mean) ....

So you think the NFL will risk billions and formally approve a plan that doesn't even have a final design plan and is probably 4-5 years away from ever opening over the ready to be built stadium backed by the the only multi billionare in the room?

Don't really give a shit what the committee recommends. When they tried and pull that 100 million dollar fiasco with the St. Louis proposal, they revealed their cards. They're all Spanos ball washers. We KNEW this before, you expected them to reverse course and recommend Inglewood now?

Exactly. Inglewood is tooooo solid to pass up on. I'd like to stick Spanos' balls in one of those golf course washers and ....... n/m

On a side note,, and I can't believe I'm saying this, but I hope like hell that the Hags kick the living crap out of Carolina Sunday. Put Newton in traction for the remainder of his contract.
