    Consider yourself the 3rd poster here to not understand my point.

    I don't even know what you are talking about, I'm just spreading some knowledge.

    Apparently so. Per wikipedia, the tally was 64,744 votes for consolidation, 64,467 votes against. Less than a quarter of one percent margin.

    I always liked these unis and this is what I think of when I think of the Rams. But I understand the blue/yellow with the ram horns on the shoulders is much more popular and that is what they might go back to

    And it's so sad, the LA Ram that played Grizzly Adams on TV just passed away yesterday.

    550 million?!?! Why? So Goodell can make the Forbes 500 list if he's not already on there?

    That's Merlin Olsen. He died 6 years ago. Dan Haggerty (Grizzly Adams ) didn't play football

    In a funny twist Dan Haggerty played Merlin Olsen in long run of commercials for FTD Florists

    And Grizzly Adams finished up his TV career as a crime fighting Franciscan Monk in the Wild West.

    I read that the idea for that actually came from the show Father Murphy, and was a spin-off, believe it or not.

    3rd poster to recognize 'your point' is nothing but your clouded perception.

    there are so many inaccuracies in what you posted, that it's not even worth delving into them.

    Yet you did once. And responded 4 days later again.

    All because you live in one of the places I'm talking about.

    Sorry you think Queens/Long Island is the same as Manhattan.

    to my knowledge that 550M directly lines the pockets of the other 31 owners.
    Money is the big reason the owners were pushing this. the market has already repeatedly proven it's not a football town.

    Kroenke was really the only owner who could afford to pay that amount in a short period of time.

    couple other notes:
    - all 3 franchises are only worth around 1.5B. that fee is 1/3 their worth
    - the last relocation fee was the Oilers less than 20 years ago was only 29M
