Default St Louis Rams For Sell
Possible move to T.O, this could force the Bills hands.

I personally think that Toronto will ever get an NFL francise......or atleast I hope they don't.

Having everybody be a Jays fan is enough here in Canada.....don't need all those 'Ram' or 'Bills" fans. Even tho they both are terrable right now.

They should move back to LA, where they belong.

They should move them to Saskatchewan so they can finally have a professional football team.

Speculation that Dave Checketts who owns the Blues is part of a group that will be the new owners.

I can't see the Rams moving. If they did, LA would be the first place in mind for the NFL.

I don't think the NFL would be upset that the Rams moved back to LA, but I do think they would like a team in St. Louis.

Would Skeletor move his team to St.Louis? He doesn't like Oakland's stadium, the league was hinting for the 49ers and Raiders to go together to build one and share like the Jets/Giants, but with it looking more and more like Santa Clara is going to build a new stadium for the 49ers that would eliminate an Oakland co-tenant (I would think).

And outside of the Bills (another possibility, but with re-alignment issues), I think most other franchises are pretty darn secure, aren't they?

You hear rumblings about Jacksonville.

Reports have the owners of the St Louis Blues to buy the team and keep them there.

Yeah, but I think it is harder to cheap the cap in the NFL.


*patently awaits for flip to show up.*

If the Phoenix sale doesn't go through, I wouldn't be surprised if Jim Balsille sneaks in and tries to buy the Rams and move them to Hamilton
