EvilChameleon Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Would you follow them to that new city? Would you pick another team? Would you just stop watching the NFL?

neo_prankster Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Probably just pick another team. Otherwise, I think the league's excuses for not expanding beyond the 32 team structure instead of letting teams move as of late are ridiculous.

ltjets21 Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 It is a tough question, being a Jets fan it is something I likely will never have to experience but at this point I have built up too much hatred for the Giants to switch to them. Following the Jets would be like following any other random team and since I already have went through so much with them I would most likely stick with them. If I were to move to another area there is a chance I would adopt that team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeauxColonels Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 There's really no way to know unless it were to happen. if i had to venture a guess, though, I would probably stop following the NFL as much and put most of my focus into college FB and the Premiere League.

osctheg Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I would probably become a vikings fan, since a lot of my family lives there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynasty Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 It depends on where they relocate to. But in most cases, I'd still follow my team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckeye Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I didn't follow when the Browns moved to be the Ravens, and I most likely wouldn't follow them if they left again. I'd probably go to another close team like the Colts or Bengals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnPheitseog Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Stop watching. The only reason I care now, is because Buffalo has a team. Even having a Buffalo team in the league, the NFL is getting harder to follow and care about. Formerly known as DiePerske Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnWis97 Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 When I lost the North Stars I was done with them. I had friends that, while they did not really follow the team in Dallas, were pulling for them in the 1999 finals. I tried to cheer for the Red Wings (why? Uniforms, why else?) but it did not take. In fact, their first finals was vs. the Devils...I was kinda pulling for the Wings, but when they lost I shrugged my shoulders and was glad that Neal Broten won a cup. So I was not exactly hard core. If the Vikings moved (which looked like a possibility a couple of years ago), it would probably be the same thing. I would not have followed them. I'd have been (even more) soured to the NFL and would have a passing interest come playoff time. My real NFL fandom would most likely be done.

The_Admiral Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Well, my team did move, but they weren't local to me. I suppose I could go back to being a Bears fan but the Bears are even more annoying and distasteful than they were when I gave up on them, so why? Most likely I'll just go back to not watching any football. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sec19Row53 Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I'd cheer for a team with no owner so that there's no risk of moving. Oh wait.... It's where I sit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJM Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 If the Cardinals ever left AZ I would probably pay less attention to the NFL honestly...probably just watch more college football and hockey.

kroywen Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 It's probably sacrilege to say as a Jets fan, but I'd probably wind up rooting for the Giants after a couple years. I don't really have anything against them at this point, and they'd be the sole remaining local team. Luckily not something I ever expect to have to worry about, but that's the most likely scenario.

Bruins Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Wherever Tom Brady and Bill Belichick go, yeah, I'm gonna root for that team. I would root for the Iceland Patriots if it came down to it.

Cosmic Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 There was a point a few years ago where I was mostly resigned to the Bills leaving. The local college team (also my alma mater) has basically no shot at moving up in CFB, so I was hoping for a CFL expansion team. It wouldn't have been a guaranteed success, but I think it could have been something special. A part of me is actually sad that it didn't happen.

LMU Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I hopped from team to team after the Rams left (hated the Raiders) eventually settling on the Chargers since they were the "local" team. Now that the Rams are back I'm back with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBGKon Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 If the Buccaneers left Tampa, it would probably depend on where they went. Most of my family is near Detroit so I would likely become a split fan with the Lions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 I'd be done with the NFL. I'd only watch MAC football and the college playoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrimalCookie Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Yeah, see, this is where the situation gets strange. How, exactly, did Orlando get a team? Do we really have 4 teams in Florida now? What bizarro world is this? But in all seriousness, my team did leave - the Oilers. I stayed with them until they rebranded, and then was totally done with the franchise in general. I then picked the Dolphins (because I had to pick the one Florida team that didn't have success in the late 90s/early 2000s), and then picked up the Texans when they came around.
