Cards chairman DeWitt says he’s met Kroenke “once or twice”

ST. LOUIS (AP) — St. Louis Cardinals chairman Bill DeWitt says he has zero insight on the Rams’ move to Los Angeles. In fact, he says he’s met Rams owner Stan Kroenke only “once or twice.” Kroenke has been with the Rams since they relocated to St. Louis in 1995. That was the same year DeWitt’s group purchased the Cardinals from Anheuser-Busch, but there’s been virtually no intermingling.

The Cardinals are regularly one of the biggest draws in the major leagues and had attendance of 3.5 million last season. DeWitt said at the team’s annual Winter Warmup fan festival on Sunday that he believed St. Louis can support an NFL team. But, he added: “I just don’t really know Stan Kroenke.”

Reid says Chiefs had headset problems at New England

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) – Chiefs coach Andy Reid says his team experienced problems with their headsets during Saturday’s playoff loss in New England, though they worked fine in the crucial final minutes of the game. Reid said the problem occurred in the first half between the coaching staff and the radio in quarterback Alex Smith’s helmet.

But Reid said they cut out “just a little bit, not much,” and did not think that they were anything out of the ordinary. It’s not the first time that headsets had trouble at Gillette Stadium. In the regular-season opener, Pittsburgh complained the coaches’ headsets were filled with the Patriots’ radio broadcast of the game. Steelers coach Mike Tomlin later said his coaches have had problems with headsets every time they play at New England. The Patriots beat the Chiefs 27-20 on Saturday.
