Short promo video of what Kroenke wants to do in LA, mostly in terms of the Rams.

A first 3d look at the two-sided, 50ft. tall, 150 yd long video board that is apparently called the " Oculus". Looks pretty cool....

I like the Barry Redden sighting at the beginning

The Coliseum has grass right?
So we play 3 years in grass then go back to turf?

* I had this hat as a kid - wish is still had it, but like all my other prized possessions my mom threw them away during Spring cleaning booooooo

Good chance the draft is an annual thing in LA starting in 2019. That alone is gonna be great. Also gonna be cool to catch my Kings there in the stadium series.

Exciting stuff man. Now can the Rams win some effin games?

Right on both counts. I loved the video, except where they slipped a photo of Brad Pitt in their. Can't stand the Guy!!
My collectable are mostly L.A. Rams Items! I have an autographed Cap From Vince Ferragamo and pennant from SBXIV, and a set of Drinking Glass (rocks glasses) I plan on using again!!

I had the hat also. My aunt bought it for me at a game and sent it to me for Xmas. I also had a Sears Roebuck Rams youth helmet I got for Xmas when I was 7. Both were sold by my mother in a garage sale after I left for the Army.

Pretty much all I care about. This "entertainment" has the been the worst team over the last decade. Stans vision might be clouded by poor play. Let's see if it pays off.

That video is so smart. The focus for the Rams isn't on old farts llike me...It's not even on the "lost generation"..It's on the kids that now have tjheir own NFL team in Los Angeles/SoCal. It's about taking that trip to the fabled Los Angeles we think of..Go to the Walk of Stars on Hollywood Blvd and Graumans Chinese Theater. Go see Rodeo Dr in Beverly Hills. Go to the Santa Monica Pier. Go to Disneyland, and sure as heck go to the other Disneyland, the Inglewood Stadium/NFL Dreamland.......

Whats funny is that the Rams Organization saw the original "Coming Home" (with Bradford and Clemmens), and used the same idea in promioting the return of the Rams..lol..THIEVES!)

Not sure why his comment bothers you. Half the comments by anyone here are redundant... that's never been an issue before.

Kroenkes(and the NFL) vision is only about making lots of money. Considering recent events, it's kind of a topical issue.

He doesn't care about LA fans, tradition, "coming home" or any of that.
If myself and other fans are going to be subjected to constant reminders of his "vision", don't get all grumpy when we remind you of our reality.

They had Joe Banner on Mike & Mike, the former Eagles president. He actually said from a finannicial standpoint, when you consider the amount of money he is paying out of his pocket to the NFL for a relocation fee (over 500 million), paying the complete bill for the LA stadium project (up to 2 billion) which will include some loans, that he would do nearly as well from a bottom line perspective of staying in Stl and getting a stadium built where he would not contribute a significant amount.

This is more about him and his legacy in his mind. He will forever be remembered as the mastermind of what will be the centerpiece of the NFL and really the epicenter of many significant NFL activities for decades to come.

I guess when you have every material thing, the only thing left to buy is "legacy".

I don't believe for a second that he does this for anything other than $$$.
It's just when you are a multi-multi-billionaire, you don't measure wealth by dollars anymore...

He's just keeping up with the (Jerry) Jones's.

The beginning of my fandom centered around my intense desire, as a four year old in 1971, to get a complete Rams uniform(with helmet) for Christmas. I got it and the rest is history.

I don't mean to offend anyone, but that promo brought a tear to this Ram fans eye! Here since Hadl!

Yeah, it just brought tears to my wife's eyes too...
...just for an entirely different reason.
