Owners have approved the Rams move to LA.
As a NFL (Giants) fan, I do not support this. I believe the Rams were viable in St. Louis and the stadium being only 25 years old still had plenty of life left in it. 4 years ago I tried to get tickets to a Rams game and the only way I could get my hands on some tickets was through Ticket Exchange (which I refused to pay the over inflated prices plus the handling fee).
Some of you might like the move, but I do not. The NFL stands to collect $500 million from the Rams for relocating. Easy money for the league.
I think cities need to stop caving in to NFL owners' demand for a new stadium. These facilities can easily top $1 billion today for a facility that will be around for 25 or so years before the owners demand another new facility to be heavily subsidized at taxpayer expense.
