the_grateful_ted Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Why is Phoenix in the east and why is new Orleans in the west?. Also some of the new team suggestions seem like minor league baseball team names, not pro football names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeerGuyJordan Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 In consideration of Columbus being forced back into the Western Conference, I would offer them the following caveat: All divisional games could be played at the starting time of their choice - so if they were to go to Chicago or Vegas, they could start the game at 7:30 ET instead of 7 Central or 7 Mountain (8 ET/9 ET).So many people are talking about Columbus being forced west, but I really think the burden is more likely to fall on Detroit. Looking at the coordinates of their arenas, Detroit is further west (not by a large margin, but still). Of the two clubs, Detroit can much better shoulder the extra costs as compared to Columbus.

TrueYankee26 Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 CFL, MLB, MLS & NASL, NFL, NBA, NHL, College football v1 & v2, FFLBy 2030, Major League Baseball has totally modernized. The DH has been implemented in all games, instead of just games in AL ballparks and the annual All Star Game. Two die hard baseball fans, one of them, a fan of the New York Mets from Long Island and his twitter friend turned real-life friend, a Cincinnati Reds fan originally from a small town in Kentucky who moved to Brooklyn, were disgusted when Commissioner Manfred announced DH in NL baseball. They formed their own baseball league, the National Baseball League. It is going to have 40 teams. No DH, no replay.

Either this prediction or something similar MUST happen someday. Let's be honest. That way, there will be a great well-balanced schedule for all teams; when one team faces its other 5 division rivals twice (home & road), and faces the other 6 non-division teams once (3 home & 3 away, with home-and-home series alternating every 2 years) for a total of 16 games instead of 18 or even 22. For the playoffs, instead of 6 spots, it should be 8 (2 division semifinals & 1 division finals per division). That way, there won't be any crossover divisional matches. Just pure East vs. West finals/series to dispute for the Grey Cup in every single season, as the way it should be. 1 Quote Florida State Seminoles fan for life (mostly on football, basketball and baseball)! 2011-12 ACC men's basketball conference tournament champions; 2012, 2013 & 2014 ACC football Atlantic Division champions; 2012, 2013 & 2014 ACC football regular season champions; 2012, 2013 & 2014 ACC football conference bowl tournament champions; 2014 NCAA D-I FBS BCS national champions!

(I posted this in another thread)... The CFL needs more teams because fans can't take seriously such a small league. Sure the Grey Cup is a fun national pride event... yet when they keep telling me 'the real season starts Labour Day' then why should I care for the previous 3 months?? Don't get me wrong, I love that the CFL plays all summer & ends in winter, it's cool.

I want at least 12 teams in the CFL. I agree with you on that one. And I'm not from Canada. But in order for the CFL to have more than 12 teams or upto 12 as the max, I bet the league itself needs to do too much scouting on cities with legit football stadiums, plus the money investments and the fan support.
