    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (porky88)</div><div class='quotemain'><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (BearsFan1)</div><div class='quotemain'><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (vikingfan)</div><div class='quotemain'>I don't know if LA can hold a team (historically they haven't been able to). I don't know what's wrong with the people there, they just can't seem to support the NFL.

    I think having 3 teams in Florida is absolutely silly - Ohio is a huge football state and could actually support three teams. Columbus is a big enough town to support a team...

    BF1, obviously retracting on market size doesn't work. Green Bay is a fixture and always will be. The franchise is too historic to move or retract...</div>
    Makes sense to me. If you have enough talent for 32 teams, you might as well put them in the best 32 markets. If you have enough for 28 teams, put them in best 28 markets. Good bye Packers</div>
    You can wish that all you want. GB is owned by the city and they even have stocks. So really everyone is capable of owning the Packers to some extent. Heck I have some shares. I'm part owner of the Packers. So because of that the Packers can never move unless they go bankrupt. Considering their season tickets are sold out for the next 50 years that's not likely to happen in our lifetime.

    So go with 28 teams. Just take the 27 best markets and then the Pack.

    Frankly I think it's find the way it is. L.A. seems to be more of a college city anyways..</div>
    I know about those "shares" they are non controlling non profit shares. I.E. souviniers.

    Whats the faster way to manufacture money: Printing and selling non-controlling and non-profit "shares" or your business to morons or cutting out the morons and printing the money yourself? I guess it depend on how good your printing presses are....
