Austin is UT country 95%, followed by Dallas Cowboys 4% and Texans 1%. Not too dissimilar from San Antonio. IMO Cities are far too close together to bring in another viable franchise, especially with the Cowboy footprint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All paid by tax on hotels/rental cars. Yeh the hate for Spanos ran that deep. Meanwhile they spent easily on Padres new digs. Locals have no one to blame but themselves. Enjoy the Padres and stop complaining, that was your choice. Oakland has best fans but bureaucrats have continuously botched pro teams since 70's. Seals, Raiders twice, Warriors, and soon the A's. Portland is the land of unpoliced riots. I would venture cautiously there. Although Portland Riots has a good ring to it for nickname and historically connects to the city.

Toronto...outside of the US and also the Centre of the Universe. Would love to see how the league would justify plopping a new franchise 100 miles away from an existing team.

PetermansRedemption Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 I have pounded the table for San Antonio to have an NFL team for years. I lived in San Antonio for a few years for work. Cannot believe they only have one professional sports team. Huge city, yet lots of available land in the suburbs about 30-40 minutes from the city center. In addition, they have the Alamodome downtown that can hold a team while a new stadium is being constructed. Also only 1 hour south of Austin, so you can pick up some fans from there. I think it makes more sense than Austin as well because it’s farther away from Jerry’s world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fully aware, I mentioned Riverside/San Bernardino because most people in places like WNY can't comprehend the sheer size of Southern California. Both in population and distance. I know I never understood it until I moved out here many years ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have VA Beach, Norfolk, Suffolk, Chesapeake, Portsmouth, Newport News and Williamsburg...but they would never get a team because all those towns could never reach an agreement on a stadium. Also Daniel Snyder would block it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sort of but not really...the same stadium teams and Eagles Jets/Giants are not new 21st century franchises, they are either long-established franchises or relocations. I am also guessing that those are also two of the most population dense areas in the entire country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Einstein Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 3 hours ago, hondo in seattle said: I’d Endorse Portland. Metro population about twice as large as Buffalo’s. Oregon needs a team of their own. San Diego. Screwed by the move of the Chargers. They deserve a team and have the population to support one. International Toronto and Mexico City… the biggest cities North and South of the border. No Fly Riverside/Inland Empire... They have the Rams and the Chargers. Orlando… Florida already has three teams if you count Jacksonville. Oklahoma… with a metro area of 1.4m, it’s too small. (But, then again, a team there would represent the entire state). Austin… It’s a growing, vibrant city but Texas already has two teams. San Antonio… Ditto Do San Diegans care about football? If I recall, they voted to oust the Chargers.

There's plenty to support the Bills and a Toronto team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
