Looks like you need to upgrade. Tell her you are expanding your own league.

Nice! That is some entrepreunerial foresight there! (though they say in biz you can't be afraid to fail, that might not be good advice here)

I don't know why they wouldn't just put an expansion team in LA. Spare one of the actual NFL cities from losing their team. But OKC I could see getting an expansion team. Or 'Bama. Although Bama has always been a college football state.

Speaking of expansion, Goodell just announced that NFL Network's Thursday night games will expand. Weeks 2-15 now. With every team on at least once[/quote]

I watch all NFL games whether they are good matchups or not but the goal of getting every team on Thursday night is going to lead to some AWFUL matchups. And the Thursday night schedule was never exactly a strong one to begin with.

The NFL is trying to create new jobs. 106 of them.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Re: 34 teams in the NFL?!
 

I suspect it's all a ploy by Goodell to get more cities beyond LA as relocation opportunities

Re: 34 teams in the NFL?!
 

two teams in LA probably...

Re: 34 teams in the NFL?!
 

Hhhmmmmm....three nights of NFL Football....I LIKE IT!

34 teams huh? How is that going to work? 32 teams make all divisions in both conferences even. 34 is just going to over load a division or two unless they completely rework all divisions again. Am I not seeing this right?

Re: 34 teams in the NFL?!
 

I am all in favor of expanding but not this way. I love football and hate this time of year. I think if the NFL would parter up more with the Arena League and use the teams in the NFL it would increase ratings and give more opportunities for the future stars of the league. For instance I would root for an Arena League team that wore B & G and was called the Redskins. I remember when Dallass had there team. Although they were not the cowboys they wore blue and sliver, I found my self rooting against them.
