Sorry, but I think this is a bad move. Maybe for football that only travels once a week, but have they looked at the mileage to get to Mexico City? Its not like its just south of Texas......
They couldnt get Vancouver BC on board. What makes them think Mexico City would do better when soooo much further away?

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Wow, Paul Allen must really want to get rid of @HCP.

The first vuvuzela horn I hear, and I'm cancelling league pass

It's like a 5 hour flight. It takes a 5 hour flight to get to Atlanta.

A guy used to bring one of those to my nephew's football games. Everyone hated that shit. He stopped after parents complained.

"We the south!"

 

[e_blazer]

We the most polluted city in America del Norte.

 

[speeds]

I wonder who will be the Steve Francis of this MC team?

 

[BrianFromWA]

LiAngelo Ball.

Lol, but we don't fly direct to Atlanta and then back home. We fly to Denver, then to Memphis then to Atlanta, then to NY then to Milwaukie and back.

That's a round trip for 1 game of a 10 hour flight. Then you have a game the next night or the night after? I dont see this working out.

Mexico City would have a dominate home court then

 

[The Professional Fan]

Team name? (baiting)

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

I can see it now...

"Our own Adrian Wojnarowski confirms that expansion draftee Meyers Leonard of the Mexico City Banditos has been captured and is being held for a 40 million dollar ransom by Cártel de Sinaloa. Rumor around the league is that Neil Olshey is the only one willing to pay that amount of money for Meyers Leonard's safety."

Ha! Wait......what?

I was thinking the same thing, only with less colorful detail.

 

[Strenuus]

But yeah guys... it's for a gleague team. BGD's algorithm failed us.

 

[Mr. Robot]

relocation or expansion of the NBA
if its expansion, Seattle will get their team back, thats for certain
