Rams’ Shaw Enters Talks on Move

John Shaw, the Rams’ executive vice president, met for the first time with representatives of the Maryland Stadium Authority last Thursday to discuss the team’s possible move to Baltimore.

Shaw reportedly met secretly with Herbert J. Belgrad, chairman of the Maryland Stadium Authority, and two other interested parties involved in Baltimore’s quest for a team.

“The meeting was preliminary, and underline the word preliminary ,” a source said.

Maryland Gov. William Donald Schaefer has reportedly set a Feb. 14 deadline to receive notice from any NFL team that wishes to relocate in Baltimore.
