As it stands today.

There is even more confusion as to how the NFL is going to take in 2 teams.

Where will the 2 teams play until the stadium is built ? The only option is the LA Coliseum. USC runs the LAC, and in contract, it states that only 1 NFL team can share the stadium with USC (which they have accepted). If the Rams were to play at LAC, would the NFL be stupid enough to make OAK or SD play a couple more seasons in their current cities ? That shyt would be a disaster !

It seems like (from what ive read and heard today) the Rams to Inglewood is what most likely going to happen. With the possibility of the Raiders or Chargers moving into the Inglewood stadium AFTER its built. If this were to happen "next season", Kroenke will have to pony up hundreds of millions to the Raiders & Chargers, which hopefully can go towards new stadiums in OAK and SD.

Sadly, Kroenke has literally shyt on the city of StL (in his proposal to the NFL). And made it clear that StL isn't a football city, and never will be. (I don't agree with that....the "greatest show on turf" was one of the GOAT runs in history)..
That was in their early years there right off the bat damn near.. plus "the greatest show on turf" was a no brainer and a easy sell. You really gauge a city on how they show up during the down years. I still want to see how down OKC is with that Thunder life if they lose Durrant and Westbrook

Well he was "probing" San Antonio two years ago, but jerry's pull in the NFL is too strong, no way that happens.
yeah no way that happens. but I'm just pointing out how all over the place bleachereport's "insider buzz" is.

this was the report last week

Insider Buzz: Billionaire Interested in Part of Raiders, Helps Chance of LA Move
"One of the richest men in the world has reportedly expressed interest in buying a portion of the Oakland Raiders, a move that could have big implications for the Raiders organization."

Rams continued to sell out after 3 more losing seasons when GSOT ended. Sold out from 1995-1998 when we didn't have a winning record. We haven't had a winning season in 12 years, and was still near 90% capacity I think up until this year. Can anyone name a team that has sold out every game when going 12 seasons without being competitive?

As of today...

Its still looking like the league is considering the Cowboys plan/proposal of making The Rams and Chargers share the Inglewood site. More interestingly, there's rumors that the league will possible make the Rams and Chargers both move to the Carson site ? Yes...Carson.

And as others have stated. Yes....There is speculation that once the Chargers and Rams move. The relocation money that is awarded to the Raiders & Mark Davis, will go towards making a new San Antonio stadium for the Raiders.

I think that this is all bullshyt. The reason the Chargers and Raiders jumped on LA, was so the Rams don't take fans from their markets. Now, im supposed to believe that Jerry Jones and Bob McNair (Houston) will allow another team in their market ? shyt don't make any sense.

To me....all this scrambling and speculation shows that the league isn't ready for LA. But it shows that they are trying to force the issue.

We will see what happens. The owners will vote this Wednesday 1/13.

the league is ready for LA IMO, but it's the fact that they're trying to force multiple teams there. the rams had/have the most secure plan, they need to just let them go back to LA.
