Stuart: WHY NOT JUST MOVE THE RAMS OUT OF ST LOUIS?? SEEMS LOGICAL TO EVERYONE LIVING OUTSIDE OF THAT CITY!
I GUESS YOU WOULD LOSE YOUR JOB AS WELL AND SO WOULD MOST OF THE OTHER SO CALLED JOURNALISTS...EXCEPT GORDO.
Good luck in your next career!!
PS I know you probably won't post this because you hate difficult posts!!

Jim Thomas: Nothing difficult about this post at all. If the Rams left, Jim Thomas and I simply would be given other assignments. We both covered different things before the Rams, and we could different things after the Rams.
bfulton: I understand the possibility that the Rams could leave St. Louis, but where are they realistically going to go? California's budget is so bad, they need TARP money. How is LA going to finance a stadium. In this economy, what community can?
Jim Thomas: As I've said previously, before the Rams leave they have to have someplace to go. As of now, they don't.
UCityDave: Hey, Bill, what's up with Jim? I don't mean to pry if it's a personal matter, but he's been gone going on four weeks now and I'm concerned. I just hope he and his family are OK.
Jim Thomas: Jim annually takes off between the draft and training camp, save for some minicamp work. It's the same this year.
Mike Gregory: Bill, I thought Stan Kroenke had already purchased another 9% stake in the Rams, is this not so? Also, what happens to the PSL holders who purchased supposed 30 year licenses should the Rams move in 2015? It is hard to fathom the apparent tepid support from any St. Louis investor regarding our sports teams. I mean, after all, out of towners own the Rams, Cardinals, and Blues. What gives? Thanks, Mike.
Jim Thomas: Kroenke still owns 40 percent of the Rams.
Don't know what would happen re PSLs.
It is a bit strange that all three owners are non-St. Louisans. Can't really explain it.

nortzman: Jim;
Thanks for taking my e-mail. Are the rumors true that Michael Vick may be on the Rams radar? If so, where would they put him, No. 2 QB or some variant of the Wildcat? I'm not so sure his coming to St. Louis would be consistant with Spags' drive for solid resposible players, and would send out a definite mixed message that could disrupt the rebuilding process. Thoughts?

Jim Thomas: Don't expect to see Vick in a Rams uniform, despite what some of the rumor-mongers out there would have you believe.
