San Diego and St Louis just lost teams recently. That’s always the 1st look. Meanwhile OKC still wants a football team. Benson was used to threaten to move the Saints to San Antonio before Katrina. There’s ALWAYS some place to go.
Most of these failures have to do with team quality. Both NHL teams that were in Atlanta were TERRIBLE. Hard to build a fan base losing most of your home games. Win a bit, go deep in the playoffs, your like the Sharks or Knights. Winning gets fans. Right now the Bills are winning, if they go somewhere, tickets will sell.
Taxpayers always have a say. But they keep electing whores that love to prostitute themselves for business. Not just sports either. Any time a big business talks about a new HQ or factory the cities line up “what can give you to come here?” And businessmen are smart. Never pay for something you don’t have to. If multiple cities wants to build you a stadium, or a factory, then there’s really no reason to pay for one yourself.
All very true.
Especially the part about, whores
