After months of silence on both sides, Gov. Jay Nixon will hold a media conference call Wednesday to discuss the Rams' stadium situation and the next step towards keeping the team in St. Louis.

Nixon's comments are expected to be general but positive in nature, stressing the state's and the region's commitment to coming up with a solution. Expectations are that there will be no specific details on the stadium plan discussed in the conference call, but according to sources familiar with the situation, such plans will be made public by the end of the calendar year.

It is expected, however, that Nixon will talk about formation of a committee or task force to deal with the stadium issue. It's not known whether Nixon will reveal any or all of the names of committee members Wednesday.
