ST. Jack Roslovic Jersey . LOUIS - If St. Louis loses its NFL team, experts say itd have a small potatoes economic impact. The blow to regions psyche, they say, would be far greater.The beleaguered fan base took another hit on Monday, when Rams owner Stan Kroenke joined in a development group thats planning an 80,000-seat stadium in the Los Angeles suburbs. Yes, the Rams appear to be going back west, perhaps in 2016, just two decades after St. Louis swiped the team from L.A.Itd make St. Louis a two-time loser in NFL circles — the Cardinals bolted for Arizona in 1987. Though St. Louis and Missouri officials are fighting to keep a team — be it the Rams or another one — even going so far as to unveil a design for a new riverfront stadium, it appears at this point to be a longshot.Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon knows there are precious few franchises in the nations favourite sport.Were one of 32 in the world, Nixon said. Its very valuable to our state.But that value is more about civic pride, not economics, economists and city leaders say. If you want to be a major-league city, you want to have an NFL team, St. Louis Sports Commission President Frank Viverito said.And losing the Rams would pale in comparison financially to some of the other businesses that have left the region at a cost of thousands of high-paying jobs. In the 20 years since the team arrived, St. Louis lost a Ford plant and two Chrysler plants; Trans World Airlines folded into American Airlines; McDonnell Douglas was purchased by Boeing; andMay Department Stores was bought by Macys. Even Anheuser-Busch — synonymous with St. Louis — was sold.The Rams, meanwhile, employ about 200 people full-time, less than 1 per cent of the 26,000-plus employed by BJC HealthCare, the regions largest employer. The teams annual revenue, about $225 million, ranks low among both NFL teams and public companies in the region.As for the economic benefit of home games, the Rams again come up short when compared to the NHLs Blues and the citys dominant team, the St. Louis Cardinals — mostly because hockey and baseball seasons have so many more games, said Glenn MacDonald, economist at the Olin Business School at Washington University.Counting preseason and post-season games, the Blues typically play at home about 50 times a year, drawing fans from nearby rival teams Nashville Predators and Chicago Blackhawks.And no team in the region comes close to the economic impact generated by the Cardinals, who draw more than 3 million fans a year to 81 regular-season home games. Their fan base is spread throughout the Midwest and South, and with mostly three- and four-game series, downtown hotels fill up.The St. Louis Regional Chamber and Growth Association has estimated the Cardinals annual economic value in the $320 million to $350 million range, depending on how far they go into the post-season.Rams games are different. The fan base is mostly local — unlike the Packers, Cowboys or Steelers, the Rams have little following outside of the area (except for die-hard fans who remain in California) — so they dont stay at hotels and arent much into tailgating.The Rams also play only two preseason and eight regular-season games at home. And playoffs? The Rams havent had a winning season in 11 years and havent hosted a playoff game since 2003.Each football games economic impact is in the neighbourhood of $10 million, MacDonald said. It really boils down to small potatoes, he said. There are lots of reasons to be interested in the Rams, but the direct economic effect is relatively minor.Major-league teams, like the Rams, end up becoming part of your civic identity, said Jeff Rainford, chief of staff for St. Louis Mayor Francis Slay.We have the Arch, the St. Louis Symphony, the Cardinals and Rams and Blues, and that becomes part of who we are, he said.St. Louis certainly isnt giving up. A committee appointed by Nixon announced plans Friday for a new open-air stadium along the Mississippi River. The stadium, expected to cost between $860 million and $985 million, would built through a combination of team and NFL funding, seat licensing and public funding already in place. Nixon and city leaders agree new public money is not an option.We want an NFL franchise, but not at any cost, Rainford said.___Associated Press writers R.B. Fallstrom in St. Louis and Summer Ballentine in Jefferson City, Missouri, contributed to this report. Laurie Boschman Jersey . And, just for good measure, lets say the lottery team finishes the game short-handed because two starters come down with the very same injury. Dale Hawerchuk Jersey . The Philadelphia Eagles acquired running back Darren Sproles from the New Orleans Saints for a fifth-round draft pick on Tuesday. http://www.hockeyjetsauthority.com/ . She was 30. The former British No. 1 died peacefully surrounded by family and friends, the Womens Tennis Association said on its website. The Kyiv-born Baltacha, who represented Britain at the 2012 London Olympics, was diagnosed with the illness in January, two months after retiring from tennis and only weeks after she married her long-time coach Nino Severino.ATLANTA - The Atlanta Braves and shortstop Andrelton Simmons agreed on a $58 million, seven-year contract on Thursday, a record deal for the latest young star locked up by the NL East champions. The deal, which runs through the 2020 season, is the largest ever awarded to a player subject to American draft rules with less than two years of service time. Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo signed a $41 million, seven-year contract last May. Simmons, 24, showed power potential in 2013, when he hit 17 home runs, but he earned the big contract with his defence. He won his first Gold Glove award in 2013, when he led the major leagues with 499 assists. "We feel that Andrelton is one of the premier shortstops in the game today, and we are happy that we were able to agree on this multiyear contract," general manager Frank Wren said in a statement released by the team. The Braves this month also reached multiyear agreements with first baseman Freddie Freeman, outfielder Jason Heyward, closer Craig Kimbrel and right-hander Julio Teheran, committing $280.7 million to the rising stars, including Simmons. Simmons hit .248 and drove in 59 runs last season. He earned the new contract after playing in only 206 career games. Simmons received a $1 million signing bonus and will earn $1 million this season. He will earn $3 million in 2015, $6 million in 2016, $8 million in 2017, $11 million in 2018, $13 million in 20119 and $15 million in 2020. Teemu Selanne Jersey. It has been a busy month for the Braves and Wren. On Sunday, the team agreed to a $42 million, four-year contract with Kimbrel, 25, the All-Star closer. That came two days after the 23-year-old Teheran agreed to terms on a six-year, $32.4 million deal. Earlier this month, the Braves announced multiyear deals with a pair of 24-year-old hitters — Freeman and Heyward. Freeman, the All-Star first baseman, agreed to the biggest contract in Braves history — $135 million for eight years. Of all the new deals, only Heywards is for fewer than four years. Heyward, the outfielder who won his first Gold Glove in 2012, signed for two years and $13.3 million. Even management has been included in the wave of new deals. Manager Fredi Gonzalez and Wren also have been given contract extensions. Simmons ranks with Freeman, Kimbrel, Teheran, Heyward, Justin Upton, left-hander Mike Minor and others as the foundation for the Braves future. Chipper Jones retired after the 2012 season, and Tim Hudson and catcher Brian McCann departed as free agents after last season, leaving the team that won 96 games last year with a young roster. Simmons hit only .216 against left-handers last season, and he hit only .219 in 283 at-bats as a leadoff hitter. The team took off when Heyward was moved to the leadoff spot, and Simmons was more productive in other spots in the lineup.
