    San Antonio has tried repeatedly to get an NFL franchise. They built a dome under the “if you build it they will come” theory - didn’t work. The Saints relocated there during COVID and they tried to get them to stay - didn’t work. Red McCombs (very wealthy San Antonian) bought the Minnesota Vikings to lay the groundwork for a team in his hometown - didn’t work. I live in San Antonio and it’s weird - it’s a sports town. They support the Spurs, they host march madness tournament rounds, UTSA football and bowl games are popular. I think the league is concerned about dilution. Both the Cowboys and Texans sell a lot of merchandise here…

      I too live in San Antonio. Its been a long and painful road this far getting to this point. In my opinion its our poor city planning and leadership that has cost our city an NFL team.
      .
      Not investing money decades ago into our local universities, our airport, our local businesses, and our infrastructure has caught up with us. Businesses like AT&T left SA for Dallas, young people left for better jobs and education.
      .
      However, the tide has shifted in the last decade.
      . UTSA and UT health are merging. Our airport is about to undergo a $2.5B renovation, multiple manufacturing and tech jobs are growing within the city.
      .
      Lastly there's discussion about PROJECT MARVEL. The construction of a new entertainment district downtown complete with a new SPURS NBA arena.
      .
      Rumor is those plans include major upgrades for the Alamodome. I pray the Alamodome does NOT get renovated. Instead SA should save money (3-5 Billion) and have the plan in place for when the next team relocation or expansion occurs. Then once a deal is made, construction begins

      Oklahoma City would actually make a great NFL city in my opinion. Even with the Oklahoma Sooners somewhat relegating OKC to "de-facto college town status" - the main campus is roughly 20 miles from the city proper - I believe that would only help grow the team's fanbase. The key is to hit the ground running in fielding a competitive team, much like the Thunder did when they came to town. Bonus points if they can sign a few ex-Sooners, or even ex-OK State Cowboys as their fanbase is substantial in their own right.

      St Lo has issues with the city not wanting to get sucked into paying for another stadium. They've had two teams abandon them and screw them over and they don't seem eager to test those waters again. But ya know never known.
      Austin is a no go. The University of Texas football team has one of the largest fanbases in the state and their stadium is literally in downtown Austin (as is the rest of the campus). San Antonio is a better choice since it only has an NBA franchise and no college teams with enormous fanbases. It's also growing almost as fast as Austin and is only a couple of hours drive away.
      San Diego absolutely should get a team. It's far too large of a city not to have and NFL team, it's a favored location for hosting Super Bowls because of the warm weather in the winter and the former Charger fanbase was a good one that was loyal to a team that wasn't all that good for most of it's time in the city. Additionally the NFL has shown a pattern of getting teams back into markets that have been deserted by previous owners.
      OK.... well maybe... However that has always been primarily college football focused and would have some of the same issues that Austin does. And outside of the OK City and Tulsa the state is pretty empty. It's also not terribly far away from where the Kansas City Chiefs play.

    Expansion? Really, doesn't the NFL already have perennial cellar-dwellers living solely off TV rights? Is there really a need for a further dilution of talent? How many more teams are required to keep balance in the divisions? 4? 8?

    • @ashleighelizabeth5916
      @ashleighelizabeth5916 Месяц назад

      They usually add them 2 at a time. For years and years there were divisions that only had 4 teams while other divisions had 5 teams. The standard practice is to add one AFC and one NFC team at a time and they usually (but not always) stick them in the division that makes the most sense geographically. What's been the pattern is to add teams in pairs every 5-7 years until there are enough to form a new division and then reorganize the entire structure of divisions (and sometimes conferences too). In the 60s there was only an East and West division for the NFL and the AFL. Then they added a Central division for both conferences in the 70s. Then in the early 2000s they went to the now current system with an East West North and South division. As to why they want to add more teams obviously so they can make more money. When they hit a certain number of additional teams they will reorganize the playoffs to add more playoff games as well which makes even more money. So far as diluting talent level goes. Well there are 128 FCS teams in the country with an even greater number of FBS teams out there. With over 300 teams to potentially farm talent from I don't think they are going to lower the quality of the product too much by adding more teams any time soon.

The local network sports coverage always includes the Chiefs the same way they always did the Rams and the Big Red. Chief signs and logos are displayed everywhere.

      San Diego (Metro 3.3M, ranked 18th) has a larger market than Saint Louis (Metro 2.8M, ranked 23rd) and San Antonio (Metro 2.7M, ranked 24th). So just based on market, San Diego and Saint Louis should get the next 2 expansion teams. However, (eventually) I see the NFL expanding to 40 teams, with a whole 4 team division in Europe (London for sure, maybe another UK team, and 2 teams in Germany). Then they'll need 4 more teams from North America: San Diego, Saint Louis, San Antonio or Austin, and then possibly Portland or Salt Lake City. I think the NFL needs more teams in the northwest (currently only has Seattle).
