St. Louis Rams ownership at a glance
By Nick Wagoner
http://espn.go.com/blog/st-louis-rams/post/_/id/17024/st-louis-rams-ownership-at-a-glance
Majority owner: E. Stanley Kroenke, 67
Minority owners: Chip Rosenbloom, 50; Lucia Rodriguez
Source of wealth: Owner and founder of the Kroenke Group, a real estate development firm. Also is the chairman of THF Realty and owner of Kroenke Sports Enterprises. Owns the NHL’s Colorado Avalanche, the NBA’s Denver Nuggets, the Premier League’s Arsenal, Major League Soccer’s Colorado Rapids and National Lacrosse League’s Colorado Mammoth.
Net worth: $6.3 billion (Forbes)
Residence: Columbia, Missouri
Marital status: Married
Family: Wife Ann; daughter Whitney; son, Josh
Education: University of Missouri (bachelor’s and masters of business administration)
When purchased team and for how much: Purchased majority stake in August 2010 for $750 million
Franchise valuation: $930 million (Forbes)
2014 revenue/rank: $250 million/30th-tied (Forbes)
Owns stadium: No
Ownership philosophy: Hands-off owner who prefers to hire veteran coaches to handle the day-to-day operations of his team.
Defining moment in ownership tenure: That’s still to come, probably within the next year. The Rams’ lease at the Edward Jones Dome has been transitioned to a year-to-year arrangement, and Kroenke is part of a group developing a plan for a new NFL stadium in Inglewood, California. One way or another, Kroenke’s ownership will be defined not by what happens on the field but where his home field is located moving forward.
Regular/postseason wins-losses during tenure: 29-50-1/0-0
General managers during tenure: Les Snead (2012-present)
Coaches during tenure: Jeff Fisher (2012-present)
Playoff appearances: None
Super Bowl appearances/championships: None
NFL committees: broadcast, NFL Network; previously served on workplace diversity
