ST. LOUIS (AP) — A former Anheuser-Busch executive and a prominent lawyer have been tapped by Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon to consider options that will ensure the future of pro football in St. Louis.

Nixon on Wednesday announced the appointment of former A-B president David Peacock and attorney Robert Blitz. They will analyze the stadium issue that is threatening to send the St. Louis Rams packing and present options within 60 days.

Peacock worked with the NFL on advertising and marketing while with A-B and is a Pro Football Hall of Fame advisory board member. Blitz was on the legal team that helped bring the Rams from Los Angeles to St. Louis in 1995.

The Rams say the taxpayer-funded Edward Jones Dome needs hundreds of millions of dollars in upgrades.
