Title: US sports, fans and franchises...
Post by: local hero on February 06, 2011, 11:13:40 AM
i was pretty shocked watching some nfl doco on sky sports the other day, how the fuck can a team from one part of the country be uprooted and moved to somwhere else after being supported for years by the people of that state?

how do you allow this to happen, there'd be riots if this were to happen in football ( soccer ), the fans simply wouldnt allow it!

It often happens when the team wants a new stadium and their current city won't build it, so they move to a city that will. It's just business.

its just a bunch of guys running around - attaching any more emotion to it beyond entertainment value is sad

We have college football. Something 10~20 times better than pro sports. You european wankers wouldnt understand though.
