NFL commissioner Roger Goodell threw a flag on a St. Louis stadium plan that indicated the league will donate $300 million toward a riverfront stadium to house the Rams.

St. Louis politicians, however, say it doesn't matter, according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

Texans Owner Bob McNair Believes Chargers-Raiders Los Angeles Plan Will Be The One Approved

"In a sternly worded letter to Gov. Jay Nixon and his stadium task force, [Goodell] warned that the league has no current plans to provide $300 million toward construction of a riverfront stadium here," the Post-Dispatch reported. "The NFL provides a maximum of $200 million to help teams build new stadiums, Goodell wrote. The premise that the league has committed $300 million to the Mississippi River stadium proposal 'is fundamentally inconsistent with the NFL's program of stadium financing,' he said."

The St. Louis Board of Aldermen is expected to approve a financial package on the new, $1.1 billion stadium in a vote this afternoon that includes the extra $100 million Goodell now says the NFL won't provide.

NFL Steps Up Efforts To Block Rams From Moving To Los Angeles

"We are not changing this bill," downtown Alderman Jack Coatar told the Post-Dispatch on Thursday. "We are passing the bill as is tomorrow. We have the votes and we're moving forward.

"Everybody that's been working on this deal knows that these funding sources are not guaranteed," he continued. "This is the city's proposal. This is what we're willing to spend."

Rams owner Stan Kroenke is engrossed in a battle over a potential move to Los Angeles with a competing plan from a collaboration between the Chargers and Raiders.

If that $100 million is not accounted for when St. Louis submits its proposal to the NFL owners, the proposal to keep the Rams from relocating could again be in trouble.
