Good discussion from Martin Kilcoyne - The Governor seems optimistic that a long term deal will get done and I noticed one comment that he said that his side is in "constant" contact with Kroenke. Reaffims that he has a good working relationship with Kroenke, and I also didn't know that while he was Attorney General for Missouri, he was prepared to sue the NFL if the NFL would not allow the Rams to relocate. He states that he wants a cost-effective for the tax payers and the region for a long term solution for the stadium front.

Definitely worth a listen

West will be the Gateway of the Best! And everybody loves a politician with the sir name of Nixon.

Well said Governor. Well said.

Thanks for the find and post Candy. I feel confident with Nixon as the Gov and his relationship with Kroenke I would hope can only be a positive in this situation. He understands how Kroenke operates and knows what to expect.

He is good at providing just enough answer to the questions without upsetting either side of the coin. You can tell he has had some practice at that!

I agree - while some people say that he dances around the question and that he is giving "political speak", he does usually provide some good information, especially if you dissect what he is actually saying, such as they are in "constant" talks with Kroenke's people, etc

Without getting too political, that's pretty much his career in a nutshell.
