I've had nothing to add for 500 pages. Didn't see that stopping me now did you?

BTW - be warned. On the 10,000th post, confetti will rain from the skies and trumpets will bellow triumphantly. You may want to keep this in mind if you are at work.

Pretty sure somewhere in this thread that you promised a new Porsche to the person that made the 10,000th post.

Most posts in a none sticky thread was the Bucs game last season...why?
Because a bunch of us from ROD all got together for a tailgater there and all sat in pretty much the same area. I think it was the first real ROD bash.

Calculate all you want. Refer to the bottom right of the posts - right above the reply button. Game - set - match.

Funny thing is that I have to head out making beer deliveries in a few and I figured it would happen while I was gone. I just want to say that I am honored to have won this prestigious title and I will always remember you little people that were there for me to walk on in order to let it happen. I will think of you always as I drive off in my new 911 Turbo as you will be in my rear view mirror.

And I'd like to thank the Academy for... well... being the Academy even though I did all this on my own and they just put on this glitzy show.

Does my hair look good? I feel like I'm having a bad hair day. Oh never mind, I look fabulous anyway - as you all can see.

Anyway, I'd like to thank my family, the other mods here, Paulie for his ultimate vision that would allow my talents to be spotlighted as they have.... Oh... I'm sure I've forgotten someone.... Oh yes - Stan Kroenke - without whom NONE of this would have been possible. The CVC for being desperate pinheads; John Shaw for using his position on the stadium committee to make Martha Stewart and Hillary Clinton look like outsider traders. Dave Peacock for being too good of a guy for me to say anything negative about.... What? I'm out of time?

Thank you America and all ROD members.

Local broadcaster Mike Claiborne joined The Hollywood Casino Press Box to discuss several different St. Louis sports topics, including a new report the Rams are behind the Chargers and Raiders in the race to the Los Angeles market.

Listen to Claiborne Interview


On report in the Business Insider that the Raiders and Chargers have a "big lead" over the Rams in the race to LA because of the number of votes Kroenke will have to get:

"You have to remember...Stan Kroenke isn't the most popular owners amongst his group. It's just a cleaner separation where you're keeping teams in California. Their fans will travel to Carson. I agree that they are certainly well up (over the Rams). Whoever builds a facility, it's got to house two teams. I don't think Stan Kroenke has the popularity working for him because he's created a mess for the NFL in how he handled this thing."

On how awkward it would be if Kroenke was forced to keep the Rams in St. Louis:

"Nobody knows Stank Kroenke. I think it's going to be more challenging than people think. Me personally, I don't see how I could even think about supporting a guy who's held St. Louis hostage the way he has. It's one thing to negotiate. I think we all understand negotiations...There hasn't been a negotiation. It's just been one mistake after another. We in the Midwest have always had touchy-feely relationship with our owners, whether it's the DeWitts or going back to the Solomons with the Blues. In Kroenke's case, he doesn't do anything. I think the fans are fed up with the way this thing has worked to the point where...he might try somebody to buy the team. But I don't know if his ego would allow that to happen if he was out of the NFL 'boy's club.'"

What do you think attendance will at the Edward Jones Dome this year?

"I think 20,000 people (per game). Here's why: I know people were saying at one point last year that we have to buy tickets to show the league we really mean business. If they would've sold that thing out every week I don't think it's going to make a difference to Stan Kroenke. Anybody with common sense would understand (not supporting him). It's not that St. Louis isn't going to support the Rams. They're just not going to (put money in Stan Kroenke's pockets)."

More on attendance:

"Let me say this: If the Cardinals find themselves playing well into October, then you're going to see some lower numbers. What happens if the Rams get off to a 1-4 start? What's going to be the reason (to go to the games) if the Cardinals are in the playoffs and the Blues get off to a good start?"

I assume you are talking about the rumored cancelled events and such that Demoff addressed as being untrue?

I was gonna say something but Sum1 already did it for me
Come on man. You answered BCs point about SD suing to have Fabiani removed with the contention that St Louis has done the same thing and then produced this as evidence. It's ok to say oops.

Yea I did - he tried to use being sued as a point of emphasis; i pointed out the mayor has also been tried to be removed too

JEFFERSON CITY, MO. (AP) --

A Missouri judge is weighing whether to allow the governor to sign off on plans to build a new stadium for the St. Louis Rams.

A state lawmaker argued Tuesday in Cole County Circuit Court that Gov. Jay Nixon and officials who oversee the current Rams stadium are overstepping their authority.

The governor and others want to keep the Rams in St. Louis or attract another team if owner Stan Kroenke moves the franchise to Los Angeles, which could happen as early as 2016.

A group of Missouri lawmakers sued. They say Nixon is misusing taxpayer money to plan and promote a new stadium.

Lawyers for Nixon want the case dismissed. Judge Jon Beetem didn't say when he will rule on the case.

And if you were reading part of the tweets from David Hunn on the day of the court case, they were trying to have The Mayor removed from the case.

The state lawmakers sued sued Nixon so that's who's trying to be removed not the mayor. The RSA didn't sue the mayor so he can't be removed since he's not part of the suit.

The Professor and his group tried to have the mayor removed - not the RSA removing Nixon
