ETA: What's your criticism for moving the franchise from St. Louis to LA? I'd love to read that.
They can do as they see fit, I'm just pointing out that the numbers aren't good.

tickets sold =/= butts in seats
yes it was a nice novelty that sold tickets... but obviously as the team sucked the people stopped coming
obviously winning cures all ills... so both the Rams and Chargers better win soon... or it's going to be the summer of 1995 all over again

Yes please tell me!! I'd love to know what our attendance has been since 2005.

Why do you think they left?

Attendance is great. TV rating not so good.
It's a terrible team in a new city. Only a fool would expect the numbers to be great from the start.

I don't see how it's a bad move for the Rams. They had terrible attendance in St. Louis. Option A: be a shitty franchise with shitty attendance in St. Louis. Option B: be a shitty franchise with above average attendance in Los Angeles.

Check out the attendance stats for when the Oilers moved to Nashville. You're not gonna find what you think you'll find.

what the shite is this??? Rams averaged 64k in 2006
ETA: That's all the time I have to play around with you fools today. Maybe you'll get another franchise some day. There is always hope.

as I said... the tickets were sold since the Rams were a new novelty
when they sucked... people stopped going
the question will become... if the Rams (and now Chargers) don't improve and fast... will ticket sales be anywhere near the same?
I highly doubt it
Year 1 was a novelty... now they need to make it stick or Los Angelenos won't care

What's the downside of moving to LA?
I'll sign off with that last question.

The Thunder also were third last in attendance in their first season in OKC.

what's sad is some marketing company probably got paid a shitload of money to just rip that off

Maybe they should rebrand as the los angles Lakers

LA has already had 2 chances with the NFL (at least) and failed
