@ LAKESHOW, It simply comes down to ownership. Who has the better track record? Kroenke with the Rams or Spanos/Chargers? I think I would lean towards Spanos. But, his track record ain't all that great either. Rams currently have a more talented roster, but again you have to also go off of the habits of ownership. Is it a cheap owner? Willing to do what it takes to win? Etc.

kroenke just bought the team few years ago, you can't judge his track record yet. he is definitely the more business savvy of the two which should help maximizing la's revenue potential.

Having gone through losing a team I feel sick for the fans in St. Louis & San Diego.

Yeah same. I've never lost a team(D.C. lost their baseball teams way before I was born)but I can't imagine how I'd feel if the Redskins left town. I feel for the real die hard fans in St. Louis and San Diego.

He also owns the Nuggets, Avalanche and the Colorado MLS team. His teams haven't been all that successful. His reputation as an owner isn't very good. We'll see...

Having lost the Sonics, I absolutely feel for St.louis. Still sick over the move. Really hope San Diego keeps the Chargers, as unlikely as it looks. SD is a great town. I have been to Qualcomm many times and the stadium definitely needs upgrades. Hopefully Spanos decides to work with the city.

Would you feel bad for OKC if they lost their team to Seattle in 15 years? Because the Rams are just going back to where they left from. I do feel bad for StL though, especially since they've now lost two NFL teams.
