Ever since the NFL announced last week that the St. Louis Rams would be moving (back) to Los Angeles, many fans of the Denver Nuggets and Colorado Avalanche have been asking me: could our teams be moved some day, too? It's a fair question considering that all three teams are ostensibly owned by the same person, real estate and sports mogul Stan Kroenke. I say ostensibly because in October last year NFL owners had to approve Kroenke keeping the Rams by moving his ownership of the Nuggets and Avalanche into a family trust as a means to get around the NFL's stupid rule that disallows ownership of professional sports teams in markets where an NFL team exists.
Could the Nuggets be moved out of Denver?
