Sports Teams You Would Get Rid of or Move

    This was being talked about on the Vancouver Hornets thread, so I ask you, which teams of the four-major sports would you get rid of or move for the better of the game and why?

    And I'm talking about legitimate reasons, not "I hate the Steelers so lets choose them."

    NBA-
    Remove the Hornets and the Grizzlies

    NHL-
    See ya later Nashville, you're headed to Winnipeg.
    Bye bye Phoenix. If a Canadian city can't support you, it is lights out for you.
    (I might even remove some other warm weather teams and new comers because really I could care less about the Florida Panthers and the Columbus Blue Jackets)

    MLB-
    Something needs to be done with these teams from Florida that can't keep fans in the seats.

    NFL-
    A team needs to be moved to LA just so we can stop talking about moving a team to LA. League really wouldn't be hurting if the Jags vanished either.

    NFL - I'd move the Jaguars to LA.
    NBA - The Grizzlies need to be moved. Where? I don't know.
    MLB - Leave as is.
    NHL - Don't follow it enough to comment.

    Does this mean I have to leave now? Can I at least wait until I hit 10,000 posts?

    I'll play:

    NFL: Move the Raiders and Jags to LA.
    MLB: Fine as is.
    NBA: Move the Grizzlies to Seattle. Let the Kings move to Vegas.
    NHL: Gone: Coyotes, Lightning, Predators. Back: Nordiques, Jets, Whalers.
     
  9. Can the league convince the Nuttings that the Pirates are being striped from their power and are being moved to Florida? As compensation they get a condo in Boca Raton and a lifetime membersip at the Palm Beach Polo and Country club for their sacrifice. After all, no other team in baseball can beat that offer. Then, once they leave, pull it off as an elaborate April fools Day joke, and let someone like Cuban take over the team???????

    Yes, I have thought this through, thoroughly.

    KC? StL? Louisville? Seattle? Vegas?

    Vegas will never happen. I think Louisville would be a pretty good place to move. It just seems wrong that Seattle doesn't have a team. There should be a NBA team somewhere in Missouri.
