Have to move two NHL

 You have to. Squirt gun to your head.

Doesn’t have to make sense, but I’ll say it anyway. And really doesn’t have to make sense.

Really want Atlanta to have a team, BUT Florida Panthers to Portland. Rename them the Potties. Or Commies.

Take the Nights and make them Kansas City- Omaha.

Sorry Miami and Vegas, you touristy towns. Be Florida Lightning. I thought about Austin & Atlanta combo camps for a Southlakes Fisherman brand. Maybe rename KC-Omaha Diesel or Trucking. Think of the cross pollination of hockey fans and non-fans for just the brand.

I’m just funnin’

Dick move to not swipe one of two out of both NYC and greater LA, right?

Okay, Islanders where and Ducks where?

Move these MLB too.

 Las Vegas will need backup.

Put the Triple-A club around Portland. New stadium and a lot more high level ball for them. 

Have the West Coast A’s be there par-time too.

Should the Rays go to San Antonio or Salt Lake City? The 28th ranked media market for Utah’s hearth.

San Antonio is #31 south and west and south of Dallas and Houston’s turf. Well, the Colorado club has no close neighbors so that may help settle that matter.

Previous post discusses covering Charlotte and Nashville with relocation.

Has Nashville and SLC taken over the spotlight for Carolina and Portland ?

 What now MLB, no Carolina Atlantics battling Portland Pacifics?

Mountains vs. Sounds?!

Utah ball

Are these basebally names, or are they more footbally?

Tennessee Trucking

Utah Diesel

I know this much: the apparel would supersede baseball lovers if done right.

Farmers. Fishing.

North Country Lumberjacks. Southlakes Hockey in Houston & ATL. Tennessee Travel. The Band.

Move these MLB

Orioles to Charlotte

White Sox to Nashville

Crowded Chicago and capitol.

Expansion can simmer down a bit.

Color the town reddish darkish

 Last town we scoped was Black & Gold for Pittsburgh 

Cincinnati for more Indoor

Outdoor big leagues is covered for ol’ Porkopolis.

The city is posturing for arena sites.

The Cincinnati Gardens is a ghost with their ol’ Royals NBA shadow and their Beatles echo.

Riverfront Coliseum has for a long time been nowhere near NHL standards, even though many acts have poured through, including a healthy dose of minor league hockey and arena football for a long time.

AHL and ECHL thrived in town simultaneously around the turn of the century. Many acts of hockey, indoor football and elbow ball coursed indoors, most memorably for me being the Cincinnati Rockers, Cyclones and Mighty Ducks at different venues.

I really feel Louisville will garner the Rastafarian NBA before upriver does. Will Cincinnati do more hockey and upscale NCAA tourneys? Sounds about right for Sweet sixteens and great eights. Two minor league hockey teams would be beer and hotdog fun.

We shall see.

Town colors

 Any other market like the solidarity of black & gold colors?

Which of these States will get a team First?

 I’ll put my answer in the comments later.

Flashback to 1945 MLB Multi-Team Meccas

 NYC, Chicago and LA today. 

Yankees were with the Dodgers and Giants.

But did you know St. Louis was rocking two at once? So was Boston. The Athletics bounced from Philly to Kansas City before the Oakland to Las Vegas hop.

Barnstorm Baseball “Home” Team Bananas

 The traveling baseball show of Savannah Bananas is expanding teams.  Drum roll: 

Indianapolis Clowns

Loco Beach is multi-towned, Foxboro, Mass and Orlando among them.

Megabrands?

 Brands are on their own. 

Do St. Louis peops root for LA? I doubt it. Maybe some transient black Israelites do. They always have.

If the Bengals vacated Cincinnati and moved to Louisville, well ...  a lot of big Bengal fans might, and proximity helps. But Bengal nation would barely grow.

Let me guess.

Off the top of my noggin: 

Raiders

                                        

Los Angeles. Oakland. Las Vegas. San Antonio surely would've taken them. I feel even though Texas is far from the original spot, Raider nation is a brand that stays stuck to the dude 

 Portland wishes

...they didn't puff tran knee pipe.

Cowtoys?

Lakers? 

Yankees. 

That’s it right?  Were it not for the economic reality of moving for better job pay and opportunity I would take shot at all the ppl from NY or LA that move far for good job.

Relocations, New Looks MiLB

 Things like Mississippi Braves moving to Columbus, Georgia
