Morning Ram-blings: Possible LA and St. Louis outcomes?
By Nick Wagoner

http://espn.go.com/blog/st-louis-ra...-ram-blings-possible-la-and-st-louis-outcomes

EARTH CITY, Mo. -- With so many moving parts to the relocation rumors surrounding the St. Louis Rams, Oakland Raiders and San Diego Chargers, the conspiracy theories and ideas being bandied about in all corners of cyberspace have kicked into overdrive.

But, according to stltoday.com columnist Bernie Miklasz, there might be some validity to a few of them. In his Sunday column for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Miklasz writes that there are ways in which Rams owner Stan Kroenke could own the team in Los Angeles but also ways he could own a different team there while the Rams stay in St. Louis.

As always, these discussions are really only in their starting phase and there's a lot that will take place in the next year but it's worth keeping an eye on the possible permutations since St. Louis is the only one of the three markets in need of a stadium that is actively working on putting a plan in place.
