Unfortunately all the major sports league will have 32 teams sooner rather than later

Highly doubt the other major sports go for that kind of expansion. Who would wanna add 2 more owners to eat off a multi billion dollar pot?

That's not to say certain markets will be intriguing, but it would be for relocation, not expansion (example: Rays possibly going to Montreal one day)

I guess ideally, it would be:

the Kings move back to Kansas City, And the 2 expansions teams would be Seattle & Cincinnati (The state of Kentucky loves basketball, and Cincinnati is close enough to pulls those fans in).

Manfred talked about the possibility of expansion recently so :manny:, the fact that he talked about it says something. The incompetent and greedy NHL is already starting the expansion process with Vegas and Quebec. Idk if the NBA will do expansion anytime soon. But I believe all the major sports will have 32 teams in 10-15 years tops, ever underestimate the greed these leagues have.

from what i heard places like Norfolk-Virginia Beach, Pittsburgh, Kansas City, Nashville, Vancouver British Columbia, Las Vegas,Cincinnati and Seattle had good markets and would be great for team expansion, also NBA consider Baltimore, but according to city officials Baltimore does not have that much money to support a basketball team. but what you brehs think ?

Aka Baltimore ain't paying those fakkits to rip off the tax payers :russ:

KCMO......Sprint center and area around it is a great spot for a pro team. But I don't know if P&L would welcome that many black faces in their establishments
They might though, we've had concerts down there without any real incidents. Usually shyt happens in Wesport with the youngins, but they've put a stop to that as well. The fact that NBA has held exhibition games at the Sprint Center for the past few years should let them know that it's possible.
