I'd like the Rams to move back to LA. The Raiders are a good fit for Oakland, dirty franchise, dirty city. The Cardinals should move back to St. Louis. That way they dont have to play in that desert.

Personally I thought the best solution would have been for the Cardinals to go to L.A. earlier this decade, before they got their new stadium. They had no recent history binding them to AZ (until 2008, of course) and the city/state probably wouldn't have missed them anyway, since so many people there are transplanted fans. (Then again that's been said about L.A.) The team would've got the new stadium they had been waiting over a decade for, and the divisions wouldn't have gotten messed up.

The problem there, of course, is that the team likely would have needed a new name, logo and uniforms, which would have cost money, and the owners wouldn't have wanted to pay for it. (The Bidwills are notoriously tight.)

I wouldn't mind seeing the Rams back in L.A. either. Nothing against St. Louis, but it would be the best current answer since (again) this move wouldn't require any changes to the divisions. If the Jaguars go to L.A. it won't make sense to keep them in the South; but putting them in the West means that division won't be made up entirely of teams from the AFL. That's a big deal to me.

I really need a new sig pic

Bringing you snarky commentary since 2008.

I don't mind you tossing barbs at the Bidwells as they confirm that Gregor Mendelson was correct. Congenital idiocy breeds True, through the generations. Great Granddaddy Bidwell was an idiot; Granddaddy was an Idiot; Daddy was an idiot; and "Mikey" is an Idiot, as well.

But Phoenix is now the 5th largest city in the Land, and pushing the 4th Houston, so both cities merit NFL Teams. The Bidwell's never changed their uniforms ever since they were the Chicago Cardinals, in existence for 27 years prior to the formation of the NFL, in 1920. That was before they were the St Louis Football Cardinals, in 1960.

But they are not the only Team too cheap to change uniforms. The LA Lakers makes no sense. How many lakes are in the California desert?

Unlike the Land of 10,000 lakes from whence they originated as the Minneapolis Lakers. Nor do the LA [Trolley] Dodgers make any sense, since they don't have any trolley cars to dodge in the automobile city. But then, the Utah Jazz is an Oxymoron too.

The only descriptive team name abandoned is still, the Houston Oilers. That fit as well as the Steelers, another apropos name.

My ideal scenario would be:
The Colts return to Baltimore;
the Ravens return to Cleveland and re-name themselves the Browns;
the Browns move to Indy and call themselves the Toothless Hick Sheep-Loving Fanboy Dooshbags;
and the Jaguars (in easily the worst market in football) move to LA.

Realistically, however, Weird Uncle Al will prob. have to die before the last move can happen.
Until then, no soup for you, LA.

Jaguars should move to L.A.

Nope! They move to the largest, unrepresented, and unclaimed, city... San Antonio. Meanwhile Buffalo shuffles off to Toronto. LA is Raiduh' Country!

Plus LALA land deserves da Raiduh's. They are made for each other.
