Topic	If an owner of one of the major sports teams in your city threatened

Only one team has been added in the 21st century, and only 11 teams have been added since the NFL and AFL merged (2 of those being AFL teams that got in a few years after). The only way I could see it happening is if one of the existing teams were sold to a city, which would never happen. I think the NFL's focus on expansion now is outside the US, given the increasing number of international games each year. Overall though I was focusing more on the financial viability of that kind of ownership rather than the likelihood. <cite>rjsilverthorn posted [p:979451879] in If an owne...
