And as long as there are cities with NFL teams there will..................ah what the hell i dont have a pun for this but here are a few NFL worthy cities and a few cities that dont even deserve the hype.
Number 3 best NFL worthy village is...........................
3. Las Vegas.
You know about 10 years ago this could have been possible. But with Roger Goddell it's about as likely as a Sea World coming to Rwanda. The NFL is trying to create a league of fine young men that are good stewards and good athletes. But hey it's Vegas!
Pros-Viva Las Vegas! No Problem selling tickets. No problem rasing money. It'll be a popular team. Gives nevada people something to like besides casinos and brothels.
Cons-It's Vegas! Gives NFL "bad" name. There will be lots of scandals with players. Not exactly the most "veagasy" thing. Takes away UNLV fans.
2. Portland, Oregon.
The Portland trailblazers have stayed. I think an NFL team could not only thrive but flourish in Portland. Plenty of people and fans.
Pros-Simply an ideal NFL city. Just a good family place or single place. The city is very comparible to NFL cities.
Cons-It's a little bit boring. Rainy weather.
1. Toronto.
Can you see it now the NFL goes N ternational! Toronto supports CFL and NBA team.
Pros-International. No shortage of people. Canaidiens go to bills games alot.
Cons-It's the NFL. Not the IFL. It's not america. We'd have to sing O Canada. It's too different.
Honerable mention.
Raleigh,
Birmingham,
Honolulu.
Now the worst ideas
3. Virginia.
Not a city but who cares. No the NFL doesn't need Virginia. Virginia i believe is the largest state with no team. But tell them to look up and down and they'll see one.
2. San Antonio-
With a huge cowboys fan population here all talk should be....eliminated
1. LA-
I'll be cold and dead in the ground before an NFL team ever again enters hollywood.
dishonerable mention-Columbus, Albany, El Paso, and San Jose
I've heard scuttlebutt that the Rams are considering moving back to LA IF the Raiders move back as well. But LA has USC and the Lakers. LA is a Lakers and USC town.
Raleigh, NC wouldn't be bad if the Carolinas were to be considered for an expansion team and the Panthers weren't in Charlotte. Portland would be a GREAT location for an expansion MLB franchise.
Thank you for the Portland mention. I live close to there and we would love a team but the city government doesn't want to help build a stadium. We had a local Indian Nation offer to build a baseball/football stadium for us all the city had to do was OK a casino within the city, nope wouldn't go for it. Now I'm rambling
Against any professional team in Las Vegas. No need to have a Canadian team and Hawaii is too much travel. Los Angeles has problems for an NFL franchise. Portland doesn't seem to be a viable option for a number of reasons related to financing and attendance. There is no need to expand the NFL it has enough teams already. If I had to push a button for a city to have an NFL team it would be Salt Lake City but with the problem with the church of LDS frowning upon competition on Sunday I don't think it would work.
Heres a city that could support a NFL team we already have one of the best ticket sales for the NHL but one thing that would stop it is we have the Buckeyes..
I heard that young Rosenbloom, who inherited the St. Louis Rams, promised the St. Louis fans he would not move the team to his hometown, Los Angeles, but now I hear that he may be considering selling the team to Los Angeles people who would move the team back...
Love Michigan football. Carolina Panthers. UNC Basketball. Detroit Tigers/Red Sox. Actually I'm not a Tiger guy. My parents love them but my uncle(who i was close with) gave me a Sox hat for my 6th B-day. When I saw MY hat on TV. I guess that was the moment. I'd like to see more successful Tiger seasons but at least I've got the Red Sox to cheer me up(although they don't look too good).
I guess my story is Born in Michigan moved to North Carolina at 13 and saw first ever home panthers game. I loved them for some reason.
