- Preseason games coming to local sports station - One of the nation’s top WB Affiliates, KPLR-TV, has secured the rights to air two St. Louis Rams games later this summer. The agreement was jointly announced by WB 11 vice president and general manager, Bill Lanesey and St. Louis Rams executive vice president and general counsel, Bob Wallace. The first broadcast will be a home game against the Chicago Bears, on August 12 at 7 p.m. The second game is Thursday, September 2 at 9 p.m. vs. the Raiders, live from Oakland. Both games will be simulcast on KPLR’s Tribune sister station, KTLA in Los Angeles. The remaining two Rams preseason games will be broadcast nationally. “We are proud to partner with the Rams organization, and we look forward to presenting the quality sports broadcast that our viewers and Rams fans have come to expect,” said Lanesey. “This completes the trifecta, as WB 11 is the local station for St. Louis Cardinals baseball, Blues hockey and now Rams football.” “KPLR’s sports broadcasting experience is unparalleled in the market and we are pleased to join their organization to provide the best possible coverage of Rams football during our 2004 preseason,” said Wallace. “We thought it was important to be on television during our 10th anniversary season in St. Louis.” About KPLR About the St. Louis Rams
