The St. Louis Rams have outlined a renovation plan for the Edward Jones Dome that is estimated to cost $700 million.
The Rams want us to buy them a new house. Just fixing up its current home—the Edward Jones Dome—won't do. Instead, the St. Louis football franchise expects an extreme makeover, to the tune of $700 million, as it is estimated by a company hired by the St. Louis Convention and Visitors Commission (CVC) to analyze the team's counter proposal to a the CVC's own plan to upgrade the Edward Jones Dome with a $124 million facelift. If someone doesn't cough up the $700 mil to redo the Dome, it is feared the team will take its football and go home to Los Angeles, where it came from before it was the St. Louis franchise. All of this wrangling was set in motion in 1995 when the team negotiated a 30-year lease with the CVC. It was stipulated that the …

I think the St. Louis Rams have blackmailed the City of St. Louis enough already.
A letter to the editor in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch definitely caught my eye. This letter stuck it into the eye of ownership of the St. Louis Rams. The author stated if the Rams are going to demand that St. Louis provides a top tier stadium, then the Rams ought to sign an agreement to provide St. Louis with a top tier football team by 2015. Like fellow fans, I have grown weary of the Rams putting a substandard football team on the field. It seems like ages ago that they brought to town a Super Bowl championship. Back to LA-LA land? This team is no better off (and perhaps substandard) than the Bill Bidwell teams of the 1980s. They draft no better prospects than when George Boone was making a mess of things with the St. Louis Cardinals. …

Violent issues need to be addressed. The kick off return should be scrubbed from the game.
Sunday was a brutal day for the St. Louis Rams in Dallas. Not one, but two of their players were dealt serious neck injuries in the game with the Cowboys. Second year starters Jason Smith from Baylor and Darell Scott from Clemson both had to be carted off the field. Smith’s injury is believed to be very serous. His breathing was labored and trainers had to remove the mask from his helmet in order to function easier. A pall was cast over the Cowboys’ stadium. Friday night, right before halftime, Ladue’s 2,000 yard rusher Deavin Edwards limped off with a severe ankle injury. His brilliant senior season might be hanging in the balance. Ladue’s coach Mike Tarpey readily realized injuries are a big part of the game, knowing some other players …
