St. Louis. Rams were a shit product for years with shit coaching. Fans got tired of it. That Dome was packed and loud during those playoff runs 15 years ago.

2 times the NFL has left for greener pastures. Came back once.

San Antonio probably makes the most sense. They got the populus & they got money. (then also they can do a deal to play a couple home games in Mexico City so mexico can have their own team sorta)

trying to avoid Florida or California areas (they have enough teams)

Maybe Mempis then Missisippi & Arkansas could go see a game

Only real city I can even think of up the middle might be Lincoln Nebreska, but not sure they have the populus to support a team.

Boston Breakers aka the Portland Breakers. My favorite USFL team.

Forgot to insert the quote from the question above. My bad.

yeah, mexico city makes the most sense. they cant do canada. wont work. CFLs too big and canada wont let that happen.

the only other place that makes a lick of sense to me..seriously...upper midwest, or nebraska. theres nothing from minny to seattle for those up north, and nebraska is a football hotbed. midwest needs another team somewhere.
Toronto or Vancouver. Both those cities let NBA teams come to their city, and while the Raptors only remain, it was still exciting to see a NBA game in Canada. Vancouver is a beautiful city and frankly the CFL needs some better competition.

I think you look at areas that really support the college game and don't currently have a NFL team so. OKC, Birmingham, Omaha would be my top 3

St Louis is the answer. They've had the bad luck having 2 shit owners.

San Antonio. If you place a team in the norther part of San Antonio it would be easy access from Austin as well. That market is plenty big to more than support an NFL team. Second Choice would be an Oklahoma team.

Portland would be a good one. They only have the Trailblazers, no MLB team. Plus it'd be nice to see another West Coast team to even out the spread a bit. Also San Jose, but we don't need ANOTHER fuckin' Cali team.

I thought of Utah, but I don't think the religious politics would mesh well with NFL politics.

Mexico City? No way! Altitude is too much!! Playing there takes too much out of players!!

The problem is you need to have enough people to support an NFL team. I thought about Portland Oregon but ... Not enough people. I thought about Orlando but that would be the states 4th NFL team.

I'll go with San Antonio Great city. Has an nba team but not NFL team. Could probably support an NFL team.

I'd go with San Antonio but I don't see Jerrah letting that happen.

That would cut into his fan base.
