Texas Rangers high noon showdown. Not in our lifetime. Fun anyway. What would they be called?
The Boys. Dallas Boys. The Drive. Dallas Drive.
Diesel?

With your heart and mind. Let's toss around some ideas. Envision possibility at your place. Talk also about rebranding and travel-team-like co-location feasibility combinations. Spitball !
The Boys. Dallas Boys. The Drive. Dallas Drive.
Diesel?
Oakland baseball will be a ghost in those parts.
Those Redwoods are big beauty. Angels can float and fly and I wish they would hop California Angel style again from the Inland Empire every once in awhile for Sacramento. SoCal to sacrament. Or is religion racism now? Do Anglo-Saxophones now object?
I give up on making Angels California again
Pacer country. NASCAR nod.
In a perverted twist, …….is it the Jazz?
You ain’t nothin but a hound bear. Tennessee Grizzlies would be a spread out rebrand. Remember Big Country Reeves? But is Texas big country?
Let’s be honest. It’s a country@$$ accent. It’s the entire NBA

Who is the countryassest?
Probably Braves Country, right? Dirty south.
Country would be lower in numbers though? If, so wouldn’t the Pirates or Reds fly the flag? West Virginia. Iron mountain. Deep Kentucky spread.MLB big dawgs tubewise are NY, LA, Chicago and Toronto.
Or does Todo’s tornadic spread center mass at the heart of the windy land? But saying Kansas CITY is too reminiscent sounding of from where some city slicker buys their salsa from nEw YORK CiTy! [like in the commercial? If you’re thinking Rangers, Rockies or ‘Backs, well isn’t that more wagon west?

Indianapolis about never comes up. Proximity of Cards, Cubs and Reds hurts it. Indiana White Sox, anyone?
Nashville and Charlotte taunt Utah and Oregon for the diamond. These territories are the hot big four of whose next.
Orlando and Montreal won’t stop. Vancouver popped in. Central Texas screams. Should the west oasises nab bigtime tailgate before the apple pie and porch breezes?
Sorry for saying Sht-outta'-Luck.
But look at the ambiance and market regions.

Sacramento is sandwiched between the Giants and Mariners in the golden state of already-baseball. Portland of the Oregon-maybe Soviet Union would get it before you. But Utah will get it before you. Denver will finally have a next door neighbor to fight. Great logistics and elbow room following. And its a tetris piece on the way to Las Vegas. Choo choo. Chew chew.
North Carolina has grief from Nashville's brightening star. I'd rather a move for the Rays lube it all.
Orlando & Montreal? The temperatures are meh. As i've spoken on this blog before, the California Angels & Florida Markins again with multiple smaller ballparks could solve all of this.
Orlando is pretty. I'm sure you're all pretty.
Louisville, Dayton, Memphis, Evansville come to mind.
Cities like Cincinnati can take a promotion, right? Whats going on with Deluth?
I think Madison, WI too. Take some time to peruse the SPHL also. Promote Evansville.
SPHL below
Goatheads! I love it. If Tahoe has a team, so can Portland and a lower-than-NHL attendance Phoenix or Tucson.
There are some real doozy markets without biggest league hockey. Wisconsin is a built-in rival practically for Chicagoland.
Meece sound good? Or something tagged to Wisconsin better? Chicago seemingly cut them off at the pass with existence of their AHL affiliate Wolves. Wisconsin Wolves has the ring to it. Get them back for jacking the wolves and do Milwaukee Matadors? What’s a good Wisconsin name? Dam Beavers!
But back to Matadors: do some exhibition in Monterrey and re-uinform as the Snow Mexicans. Do a roller blade apparel and equipment deal in those communities to jolt the seeds of the game down yander. We are in fantasyland as it is.
What’s unofficially on the expansion table outside of that Lake Michigan magnetic proximity?
Portland and Austin are esthetic thoughts on a north and south pick. Cleveland also. Houston and Atlanta are screams of market size. KC and Cinci lack arena big hardwood and ice. Argue your point.
What in a name, what is the name?
Ohio Heights? Aviation?
Flight, Power
Ohio Squadron, the Wings, Sorties, Highwaymen, Diesel
Roaddawgs, Roadsters, Coasters
Arsenal? Armada?
Whatchoo got?
Call the arena Touchdown Jesus arena or Subway Footlong Jesus Arena. IYKYK.
Don’t we all love Wikipedia? Yes.
Did the Glory only win one game and play for one season? Yes.
I was thinking about NFL Europe thanks to the YouTube algorithm https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=yyGJde9lqUc and I had to pop a stop at wiki to remember how long the league lasted. I definitely forgot about the American based teams. Give it a look.
Drew Bledsoe vibes
NFL wants more foreign currency, and London is a world financial center [and mongrel Empire still]. But just because you can does it mean you should? What about America?
Orlando?
Louisville?
San Antonio?
SLC?
Portlandpotty
Even…Boise before England?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forbes_list_of_the_most_valuable_NFL_teams
The Vancouver Canadians are an A-ball MiLB affiliate of MLB. They could probably simultaneously play that club in the same ballpark with a new trip-A team. Is it SLC’s affiliate by then?
Montreal, figure it out. Are you the high ball affiliate of Carolina or Nashville?
Take a look at that spread. You can consider pro-towns up north like those in Alberta or Winnipeg too. Or Portland or Boise, and maybe say Lexington, KY or Charleston, WV to the east. Consider Evansville. Of course any number on the map could take a promotion.
Any wildcards for a new MiLB squad for you? Casper Cowboys and some ‘realiving of West Virginia Power? The Mississippi Braves are no longer. No real money in Misses Sip? No team in New Orleans anymore either. Consider existing locations with clubs sharing.

Ten more teams by then. Hypersonic jets do more for Tokyo and London?
Essentially it’s 7 more states added into the NBA
Pittsburgh Power
Cincinnati Diesel
Louisville Colonels
St. Louis Showmes, the Showmen
Kansas City Talls
Omaha Oaks
Albuquerque Trucking
Boise Barons
Seattle SuperSonics
Mexico Monterrey Aviation
I thought about Ohio Aviation located between Cincinnati and Dayton. Mexico Roughriders. NBA 2050 and 2100 posts have been done in this blog before. This is another stab. What do you got jotted down?
I’ve tossed possibilities around on this blog over the years. Should I do Ohio Heights, Aviation, or St. Louis Showmen, Move the Pelicans to Vegas? Louisville Herd?
Click years below
The anti-Americanism got so strong and ghetto that most of America hates you now. If SuperSonics come back to Seattle it probably would just turn ghettoer, so I’m not actually in favor of it. Seattle Suburbans. Portland suburb bins. Oakland is where the black lies are madder. New Orleans refugee class people mostly just refugeed elsewhere.
Move the Saints to Alabama. Or, San Antonios has a ring to it. The Pelicans can get a 52 genders change to Louisville. Trailblazer Las Vegas.
You can bounce the Trailblazers, Pelicans and Saints. Kick commies, rocks, sand. Touch grass. Touch soccer balls. Ball all you want.
If Portland had to get a team, take hockey. You are not apple pie. You are the Rainbow Coalition with Jessie Jackson wearing a dress and makeup. Oakland, are you Africa? You seem Baptist Muslim.
We done.
Pelicans? Clippers? Thunder?
I wouldn’t do that to OKAYSEE.
But I would def move the Clippers. San Diego or Seattle? My preference would be Louisville. I’d even take them in Cincinnati. Move and rebrand the Pelicans, too. Maybe take them to Vegas.
Los Angeles went without the NFL for 2 decades!
Will Austin get NHL or will they be tethered to the Stars? Atlanta probably still needs more time, but what’s up with the likes of Cleveland, Milwaukee or pinko Portland? Quebec City FOR REAL. Nebraska Diesel?
What about baseball?
And, I’m only going to speak seriously for a change, so here we go:
Nashville, Charlotte and Montreal are in the east.
Austin and San Antonio have a fight on their hands in the future under the big sky umbrella of Texas, as Rangers range. Samsies for NFL really.
Salt Lake City and Portland out west. Not sure if Portland is American anymore, but Sacramento might have the money.
Churchball: seems like many o’ weekly venue could handle the roadtrip worth of fans. Birmingham can tailgate like Green Bay. Only a million less people in Alabamy over Cheesehat. Likely Alabama would be on its own. Mississippi would still be Saints. Falcons are Falcons. Can we slide Louisville in there?
San Antonio is kind of short & curlies around Cowboys & Texans. Ditto Austin. El Paso meh. Much in the same vein as Alabama is around the oasis Albuquerque. San Diego is an emptiness of sorts. Portland Potties. Kind of leaves the Utah Mountains in my mind. https://sportleaguemaps.com/football/nfl/

Seattle is pretty obvious. Vancouver lost their shot.
St. Louis too tired of black people? Same with Pittsburgh? Don’t need even more spiderheads in Cinci either.
I think Louisville big time beacons bball. Without the Vegas vacancy the old Super Sonics would be a blazingly easy choice. Nobody taking me up on the two town West Coast SuperSonics brand. It happened before with the Kansas City- Omaha Kings. Vegas being more touristy I believe of all towns, part timing it could be pulled off there.
Major baseball and football
Major super cricket and national Elbow ball. Some teams play home in a different jurisdiction
It’s just a technicality that NewJersey and the crowded DC beltway and NYC know all too well.
Could the Monsters of Midway rebrand to the Chicago Fightin’ Jacksons? Are we still in Kansas anymore?
Louisville would be better than Jacktown Floorduh, would it not?
To hell with a Londonistan move.
Relocate the Chargers. Recoin them Power. But to where?
Portland Power?
Utah Charge?
Idaho Diesel?
Toronto Power? Norde Force? Mounties? Huge market.
Louisville Lightning? Kentucky Downs? Anyone attached to the Jags brand?
