Key NFL owner says funding details for St. Louis riverfront stadium are overdue

NEW YORK • Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon's St. Louis stadium task force has not yet turned in the financial details of its riverfront stadium proposal to a key National Football League committee as expected, a committee member and influential team owner said on Wednesday.

Bob McNair, owner of the Houston Texans, chairman of the NFL finance committee and member of the league's Committee on Los Angeles Opportunities, said that the L.A. committee anticipated getting what he called "term sheets" on St. Louis' proposed riverfront football stadium a few weeks ago.

"That's what we have to see is the term sheet — you know, what's the firm commitment," McNair told the Post-Dispatch during a break between sessions of the owners' October meeting here.
