In 2016 the Rams left St. Louis for Los Angeles - having left L.A.
for St. Louis in 1995 - causing much heartbreak among fans. NFL
teams are notorious for decamping to more profitable markets and
the Rams' history of opportunistic moves goes back to 1946, when
they left Cleveland, Ohio, their original hometown where fans had
cheered them to a championship a month earlier. The move to L.A.
from Cleveland shocked the NFL and shook up its power structure. It
also jolted the all-white league into integration, preparing the
way for the Browns and making the Rams the only NFL champs ever to
have spent the following season in a different city. This is the
story of how the Rams went from a homegrown Ohio team funded by
local businessmen to the first major-league franchise on the West
Coast, and how their departure jumpstarted a chain of events in
Cleveland that continues to this day.
