Ongoing St. Louis vs the NFL Litigation Thread
So, as a TLDR warning, basically all these tweets are from today regarding rulings in St. Louis' lawsuit vs the NFL regarding the Rams relocation
Basically, the judge ruled heavily in the city's favor to continue moving forward in the legal process and it looks like this case will go to a jury trial at some point, meaning a bunch of dirty laundry concerning the league is about to be aired. Tid-bit regarding the Chiefs is that it looks like Clark Hunt's financial information, as well as some other owners aside from Kroenke, will be shared with the city.

Um, would that be suffering anymore than the embarrassment of playing in a brand new and mostly* empty stadium in LA?
*Except of course for whatever fans from the other team show up.

Considering how much cities pump money into stadiums and give owners all kinds of perks, the decision to leave a city should not be taken lightly. Weasels like kroenke shouldn't be allowed to hold cities hostage. Those stadiums are sunk costs for the city.
It's too bad that sports for so many fans gets ruined by billionaires. It's just crazy to me that decades of incompetence from owners like the fords, Mike brown and Dan Snyder and still they are untouchable |

If St. Louis had built the TransWorld Dome for Bidwell, they would still have football to this day.

The Rams were 11th in attendance in 2019 with an average of 71,229 per game and that was in the shithole that is the Coliseum.

St. Loser gets ZERO sympathy and I hope they get laughed out of any and every court in America with their lame legal "arguments".
They got the rare second chance at an NFL team, they were gifted with a fluke Super Bowl with that second chance and they still blew it. |

I'm 100% on board with STL. They were done dirty. I hope Stan and the league pay dearly.

The same St. Loser whose state politicians regularly try to block any state funding allotments to go towards KC-area sporting facilities? St. Loser deserved the Stan Kroenke treatment, it's karma. |
