I'm glad that the Eagles still play in South Philadelphia (after moving there with the Phillies in 1971), yet while Jeffrey Lurie had the site selected (an abandoned food distribution center on Darien Street and Pattison Avenue east of the old Spectrum), the Phillies almost railroaded the Eagles as the former wanted to put their new stadium in Chinatown north of the Vine Street Expressway (I-676) and local opposition nearly forced the City of Philadelphia and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to cancel the proposals unless the Phillies built their new stadium in the South Philadelphia Sports Complex. Thankfully the Phillies did comply, because had they did not, the Eagles would have either relocated to either New Jersey or Delaware, or even left the Philadelphia Metropolitan Area altogether and relocated to Los Angeles (with the latter causing the same uproar that happened when the bankrupted former owner Leonard Tose almost sold the team to a group of businessmen from Arizona that would have taken the team to Phoenix).

There's a lot of stuff that went into that happening. You had teams moving to the West Coast in the 50s, which lead to new stadiums being built and old ones torn down. Then in the 60s and 70s you had the "multipurpose stadiums"-cities decided that rather than build a new football _and_ baseball stadium, they'd build one that could handle both sports. They were OK, I guess, for football, but it made watching a baseball game a lousy experience. What's more, many of these "cookie-cutter" stadiums looked almost identical, so if you turned on a baseball game, you couldn't be entirely sure if it was in Cincinnati, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, or St. Louis without seeing which team was wearing their home uniforms. Fortunately, a couple of decades later they finally figured out that a multipurpose stadium didn't make anybody happy and they started building sports-specific facilities, so now only (I think) Oakland and Toronto have multi-use stadiums, but the Rogers Centre in Toronto is really cleverly designed so when it's used for baseball it feels like a baseball-only facility, and there currently isn't a football team that calls it home. But all this switching around means that fans in most cities have come to expect a brand new stadium every generation. Don't get me wrong-they'll bitch about the cost, but they still want a new stadium.

Owners love good looking state of the art stadiums but don’t want to pay for it or any upgrades. They’ll moan about moving until someone gives in. People will vote for it if the team is good or beloved. As an example, Green Bay and Wisconsin would build a new stadium from scratch if need be.

What Snyder is doing is done by cities when they want to knock down historical sites, nature based negligence basically ignoring upkeep to drive down the value and usefulness of the venue to force the local municipalitys hand in knocking it down and in Snyders case under the threat of relocation of the redacteds to a new market entirely. Regarding the location, the redacteds had a prime opportunity to go back to the site of RFK and build a new stadium. Unfortunately Snyder likes money and decided to play DC, MD and VA off of each other for funds until he pissed off the most powerful mayor in the US Muriel Bowser. Maryland basically dedicated themselves to the Ravens so that leaves Virginia. My guess is that Snyder is eyeing the Sterling site. While 45 minutes away from DC It sits in Loudon County which is both the fastest growing and wealthiest county in the United States.

The NHL's insistence with keeping the Coyotes in the Phoenix market is something else. Building the arena in Glendale was a mistake from day 1. Glendale never negotiated in good faith and what fanbase the team has is mostly located on the other side of town anyways, making getting to the games a chore. Phoenix is also a very fair weather sports market as it is with a lot of transplants who keep their old team loyalties. That's on top of the organization's ownership and competence issues. Just an all around mess.

This team should've been relocated a long time ago to Quebec City, but Canada will never receive a new franchise (through expansion or relocation) ever again as long as Gary Bettman is calling the shots. He still can't stomach the fact that no one wanted to keep the Thrashers in Atlanta and reluctantly approved their move to Winnipeg. And a potential move of the Coyotes to Quebec City will cause a lot of headaches when it comes to division and conference realignment as the Red Wings refuse to move back to the Central Division and the Canadiens and Maple Leafs will also have issues with another Canadian team entering their Atlantic Division

Minnesota here - I remember growing up with the Metrodome where both baseball and football were played. It smelled funny with moldy concrete and gray and white colors everywhere. Also at baseball games there was a huge 50 gap between third base and the sidelines. Some of the best nosebleed seats were 30 feet from the worst good seats. Just an all around goofy and stinky design since they were cramming a rectangle and a diamond into a giant square. Then we had a huge debate on whether we needed a new stadium and public funds should go toward it. Afterall, the Metrodome worked fine, didn't it? It turned out the answer we a huge YES. The new stadiums are so nice. It turned out we led sheltered lives throughout the 80s and 90s. It got so that it was harder to get minor league baseball tickets than Twins tickets. The Saint Paul Saints had a wonderful stadium! Each game was like a special event. (side note - if you remember the blowing up of disco records at Wrigley field - that guy who came up with that owned the Saints. He knew how to take care of fans and make the games fun!) After the opener at the Twins new stadium, nobody ever remembered what the Metrodome looked like.

3 problems with the Chiefs moving to Kansas. Coming from a non Chiefs fan in KC and not attacking just from what I’ve seen of the proposal these are the road blocks I see: 1. Chiefs fans complain about how far Arrowhead and Kauffman are from downtown as it is, there is nothing really out there besides the stadiums. Moving them to the speedway would be further away, and the same problem exist with where they are now, outside of the Speedway and Sporting KC there isn’t too much out there. 2. Kansas is dry on Sunday’s until 12. If you live by the state line you cross it constantly sometimes without knowing it and if you cross into Kansas they will not sell alcohol on game days before noon. 3. The money that the Chiefs bring in would be a major loss to the state, and cost the Chiefs money too because even though it wouldn’t be a super long move, it is going to another state with different tax codes and things we don’t think about. Missouri will basically give the Chiefs whatever they want because the Chiefs are just bigger than the Royals. I think they should try to get closer to downtown like the Royals are doing

UTree went in-depth and was fair with "The Trop," reminding people "Tampa Bay" isn't simply "Tampa" or "Hillsborough County" even though the Bucs and Lightning play there. The Rays are in "Tampa Bay" which has several definitions, but for sports is Tampa-St. Petersburg which are two cities in two counties across the actual Tampa Bay. Based on how people are moving, we'll have a third football team which will fit nicely behind the Bandits, we think Tampa Bay Jets might work because of our Air Force Base, New York people won't mind, they'll just move here. It'd make a lot more sense than moving the Rays. Anyways, as the UTree breakdown covers, we don't want to drive over an hour from where most people live to get in and out even for an afternoon game. Do it once, it SUCKS, you understand. One problem has been the Mayor of little St. Petersburg in coastal Pinellas County was been married to keeping the Rays in St. Pete at all illogical costs. Tampa-Hillsborough has great location ideas nearer to where people would like to see a game, but we also hate taxes, especially after the Bucs Stadium. We also don't like Stu Sternberg. How much we watch the team and we go all out for our other champions, who play in actual TAMPA, is obvious, we're watching. The Montreal misadventure didn't help and Manfred should be fired. If we get a Jeff Vinik (Lightning owner and major developer in down near Amalie Arena of the Lightning) atop the Rays with Jerry Jones's wallet and ego, we may get the Major League version, not A-Ball at Steinbrenner Field version, of the Tampa Yankees! Bronx hates you boys! Come share a stadium! Don't call Tampa fans apathetic, New York football fans are so embarrassed they barely let Buffalo stay in the state, atleast our are in Tampa... BAY!!!

As someone who saw the last game at old Municipal Stadium and the first game at Arrowhead Stadium, I can state without reservation that leaving Arrowhead would be a MAJOR mistake by the Chiefs! Chiefs fans are used to going there, there is plenty of parking, easy egress in and out, the tailgating is 2nd to none, the sightlines are superb, the atmosphere is unmatched, the history of the facility is exceeded only by Lambeau Field in Green Bay, the area is safe, the infrastructure surrounding the facility is outstanding and the overall game experience is truly one of the best in pro football. Leaving Arrowhead for a facility on the Kansas side would be (IMO) an enormous mistake and I am a native of Kansas. If you want to spend money on a new stadium, think about saving a chunk of it by upgrading Arrowhead in various ways. Then if you're hell-bent on spending the other portion of the cash, maybe set up a fund that helps to feed the hungry, shelter the homeless and comforts the elderly. The Chiefs are a community-based team, so why not spend a large portion of any proceeds generated on those who are less-fortunate in the Kansas City Community. Who knows, those acts of benevolence might help the Chiefs pick up a few more die-hard fans. And in the court of public opinion, those acts of kindness would go a long way. Long Live the AFL!!!

If Dan Snyder has any say in the building of the Commanders' new stadium, it's virtually certain that traffic to the next stadium will suck because he doesn't mind thousands of fans stuck in traffic driving to his stadium, but he absolutely HATES people taking public transportation and NOT paying him parking fees. I suspect that the new stadium will indeed get built at Landover simply there aren't as many NIMBYs to fight. Sadly, I don't see the team moving back to DC unless someone replaces Dan Snyder as owner. Even so, it will be easier to deal with a place where there is ALREADY a stadium than fighting people who want to keep one out.
