NBA Expansion Looming: Seattle and Las Vegas or Vancouver
JH42XCC replied to colortv's topic in Sports In General
Obviously, a resurrected Seattle SuperSonics will be Team #31 in NBA's expansion plans. As for the 32nd team, it's a toss-up between Las Vegas, Vancouver, Kansas City, Louisville, and some dark horse cities like Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, and St. Louis. Additionally, I'd like to see the T-Wolves move to the Eastern Conference's Central Division since they're geographically closer to the teams in that division than they are to the other teams in the Western Conference's Northwest Division. -
Rumor has it that Myrtle Beach could be moving down to the Low-A Sally League, so for the Cubs, their path could look like this: AZL > Myrtle Beach > South Bend > Tennessee > Iowa Also, the last I checked, it appears Richmond will remain the Double-A affiliate for San Francisco.
-
The only way the Minnesota Timberwolves move to the Eastern Conference is if the NBA expands to 32 teams by resurrecting the Seatlle SuperSonics and expanding to either Las Vegas, Vancouver, Kansas City, or St. Louis. Also, both conferences would have to go with 2 8-team divisions

Considering that Salem-Keizer and Tri-City are both on the cut list, the Northwest League could bring up Billings and Idaho Falls from the Pioneer League to replace those two. Though, I would've liked to see the NWL relocate one of those teams to Grays Harbor, WA, and the other to Victoria, BC. Another possible scenario is that the NWL stays intact with all 8 of their as-of-now-current teams. (BTW, Montana is considered part of the American Northwest, according to wikipedia) Also, with the Red Wings now as the Nats' Triple-A affiliate, what does this mean for Richmond? Do they re-up with the Giants as their Double-A affiliate? Do they drop down one level to High-A and join Brooklyn, Hudson Valley, and potentially Aberdeen, Jersey Shore, and Wilmington (DE) in the new Mid-Atlantic League? Who knows?
-
Well, Spokane and Eugene are open. So I believe that both the Padres and Giants will be affiliating with either of those two.
-
What are the chances that Richmond drops down to High-A and join the Mid-Atlantic League along with Brooklyn, Hudson Valley, and possibly Aberdeen, Jersey Shore, and West Virginia (Morgantown)?
-
Why not Old Dominion University's Kornblau Field at S.B. Ballard Stadium?
-
I dunno which is worse: The LA Rams rebrand or this?
-
Never thought I'd see the Red Sox in pinstripes

This series is going great. Can't wait to see what you do for the New York Mets.

Just thought I'd leave this here.

I went with Wisconsin for the Brewers because... oh, wait, I just realized UW-Madison's baseball program was shut down in 1991. So UW-Milwaukee would actually make sense for the Brew Crew. Also, I was thinking Villanova would be a better choice for the Phillies over UPenn or Temple (the latter disbanded their baseball program in 2014). As for the St. Louis Cardinals, I'm starting to think either SEMO or SIU Edwardsville might be excellent options.

Here's what I would like to see for the remainder of this series: Baltimore Orioles = Maryland Terrapins Boston Red Sox = Harvard Crimson or Boston College Eagles Chicago Cubs = Illinois Fighting Illini Chicago White Sox = Northwestern Wildcats Cincinnati Reds = UNDECIDED Houston Astros = Texas A&M Aggies Kansas City Royals = Kansas Jayhawks or Kansas State Wildcats Los Angeles Dodgers = UCLA Bruins Milwaukee Brewers = Wisconsin Badgers Minnesota Twins = Minnesota Golden Gophers New York Mets = St. John's Red Storm New York Yankees = Fordham Rams Oakland A's = California Golden Bears Philadelphia Phillies = Penn State Nittany Lions Pittsburgh Pirates = Pittsburgh Panthers St. Louis Cardinals = UNDECIDED San Diego Padres = San Diego State Aztecs San Francisco Giants = Stanford Cardinal Toronto Blue Jays = UNDECIDED
