Rams Hire Rob Ryan

[Clem]

They are dangling LA out there just to negotiate a better deal for a stadium. LA is a pawn in the game that's never truly a real option. Better look for the Chargers or something.

Not going to happen.

St. Louis is the 15 or 16th most populous metro in the country. Don't count just the city just to try to prove a point when anyone knows that stay doesn't hold weight. There's damn near 3 million people in the St. Louis area, not the 350,000 you're trying to count. I'm smarter than that.

Anyway, the Rams profited so greatly when they were in LA prior to 1994 huh? There's a much greater likelihood of the Rams staying in St. Louis. Again, they out clause in the lease of the dome gives the owner leaverage to negotiate a favorable deal with LA as a threat.

They did for nearly 50 years. St louis is number 15, Cleveland is lower, has less people, and yet the have sold out all their games with worse teams, STL has not. 3 million is not even that much anymore, especially with the likes in Indy and Nashville out growing the metro area(which is held back by the city). Again, the tax money will make the people balk. And the LA Stadium is paid for.

Chargers are stuck. LA don't want them. They aren't getting a new stadium. Spanos might as well sell to local intrests.

One thing I don't do is respond to trolls that try to bait people. Since I see that's your agenda, I'm done.

Rob Ryan was the only one I thought was safe in Dallas. With him and Fisher now, they might not give up more than 7 points, but they probably won't score more than 7 either.

Jeff Fisher prefers it that way. Let the kicker decide the game.
