Chiming in: the Next Two Cities for Expansion

MLB expansion got a bolster with talk of getting rid of the American and National Leagues for Regional brackets.  And balance of east west hints at Montreal and Portland.

Some folks think the NBA expands before MLB, though basketball seems most susceptible to powerhouse imbalance in the competition realm.

The NFL with Vegas will spurn conversation.  And more desert hockey is likely to have Quebec be more passionate in a conversation,.... more so than a city of Angels with a super injection of Chargers and Ramrods.

MLS, as always, seems chaotically crazy in the expansion cosmos.

MLB:  Portland and Montreal
NFL:  Portland and Toronto
NBA:  Seattle and Louisville
MLS:  Sacramento and Nashville (if Columbus doesn't move to Austin), but if so:  Cincinnati.
     No way I would've thought any of these before a Carolina Charlotte team.
NHL:  Quebec City evens it out...... .  But later, hmmmmm Seattle/Portland ...and little talked of Indianapolis?  Toronto 2 seems deserving.

    For the record: I'm feeling my NFL votes would be for like OKC and Louisville. MLB not Montreal unless they shared with Vancouver, but for Portland (sharing with Vegas as a West Coast brand) and Charlotte (Tampa sharing the Marlins and leaving. NHL QC. MLS California Republic and FC Cinci.
