ST. LOUIS -- St. Louis city council members met Tuesday to consider the city's share of funding for a new football stadium -- a $150 million commitment likely to make or break the effort to keep the NFL in St. Louis.
The funding would help pay for a $1 billion stadium along the Mississippi River, north of the Gateway Arch, to either retain the Rams or attract a new team if owner Stan Kroenke moves the franchise to Los Angeles. A vote isn't expected until Friday.
The league has set a Dec. 30 deadline for the stadium plan to be finalized.
