First that comes to mind is the Tampa Bay Rays.
Then the Jacksonville Jaguars.
I would almost prefer Montreal over Tampa as the site of MLB. I figure that Tampa could share the Florida Marlins. Or the Rays could co-locate with Nashville, New Orleans and/or Charlotte as the Southern Rays.
I also figure that Jacksonville could share a Southern moniker and co-locate with central Alabama.
I would also look to share the NHL's Nashville Predators with Atlanta and deem them "Southern". And yeah, I realize that selfish of me. Most of us recognize Atlanta is missing MLS.
Some Cities in the future, even if that future is far away for other major league towns:
MLB: New Orleans, Nashville, Charlotte, Indianapolis and Columbus
NBA: Pittsburgh, Cincinnati/C-bus, Nashville, L-ville, St. Louis and KC
NFL: Louisville and Toronto stick out starkly in my mind.
What am I missing here?

| East and West of the Mississip |
Speaking of KC, let's look more out west, also:
Vegas, Portland, some SLC and Albuquerque, some OKC and San Antone.
NHL in Houston, Seattle, Cleveland and Milwaukee...stuff like that.
