Lawsuit Over Rams' Relocation Leads To $790M For St. Louis

[Thavoiceofthevoiceless]

shyt's weird because having an expansion team is worth way more than 790 mil.

But I doubt that the settlement would have resulted in an expansion team anyway

They could have taken it trial if they wanted to and squeezed more out of the NFL as there was no way that they wanted any of those owners to take the stand. It's been said though that a lot of them just don't want another team in the city and problems that come long with it.

hopefully they put that money to good use. Anyone on here from St. Louis?

That just reminded me of @FromStLouis

Breh might really be gone gone

It's possible, but I do think a lot of the drama is due to shortsighted politics, small town mentality and principles.

A lot of people including city council members want to spit in the face of big business because they can, not realizing that they need big business to continue the growth of their city.

There's still a fight of sorts before they can even get the money as they still don't whether Kroenke is going to foot the bill for the full $790 or if he will try and force the other owners to help him out.

Just once I would like one of these lawsuits to actually play out

It'll never happen.

Settling for 790Mil let's you know how much it would have been when they took that L in court. This is obviously a win for them and an L for St Louis overall.

That's our new striker(s) money.

St. Louis lost two NFL teams in 28 years. I feel they are done with the NFL.
