The Carolina Panthers are too close to have a team in Raleigh. Could Richmond really support a team? I hope they don't expand.

To all you young guys about to graduate college, don't do it! edit I think the real problem with an international franchise is not the game travel, it is living in another country. Look how much trouble the Toronto Raptors have and Toronto may as well be in America distance wise. It is the currency problems, exchange rate, tax issues, etc. Ribsauce fucked around with this message at 14:40 on Aug 3, 2014 |

I thought you had to be a big city to have an NFL team. People are tossing around Mobile and Charleston. Neither even break 200k. Richmond barely does (if it even does, I don't know). Little Rock, are you serious? Raleigh is half a million (double all those cities), has a good economy, and I would not think we would have a chance at a team, and that is before factoring in the Carolina Panthers.
