You think just because I have a weird idea about organizing the leagues that I say sports ball? Someone who said sports ball wouldn't even have enough interest in sports to be thinking about this

You probably think I say hand egg as well

So you? Because people who say sports ball are the type to be condescending to people who actually watch sports and say shit like "I don't get why people watch the super bowl sports ball is pointless"

One team per state is such a hilariously bad take that it feels like someone who focused on too much anime in the 2000s would say

I am not being condescending to anyone, though.

So you expect the 580k people in Wyoming to support 4 teams, and the 40 Million in California to also only have 4 teams.

And good luck figuring out the travel arrangements for the 4 Hawaiian teams.

If they're all able to make do with 2 senators then I'm sure they can manage 4 sports teams.

Each province can have a team i guess and the wnba can take part too

But anyway, I'm done worrying about this. Apparently my idea would not work. I still think it would be an improvement if it was possible though.

Why are you telling other countries what to do?

NHL
MLB
NBA
NFL

If I was some powerful person who commanded all 4 of those leagues, I'd set it up so each pf those had 50 teams. 1 per state. Places like New York, Illinois and and California would have to lose some teams. But each state would have 4 teams to represent them, 1 per sport

Everyone in the state would have pride for their team instead of just people who live in a particular city

People take pride in a team even if it's based on a city rather than the state. People tend to pick whatever team is the closest as that's what they'll more likely be able to go to games of. Like in Virginia there is a lot of redskins I mean commanders fans.
