    Hey Thurm



    Since 1988 five NFL franchises — the Cardinals, Rams, Raiders, Browns/Ravens and Oilers/Titans — have changed cities.

    It's pure conjecture right now, but the slimmest of possibilities exists that the next team to relocate might wind up in Toronto.

    With an 86-year-old owner who has expressed no clear plan for the franchise for after he dies, an address less than 90 minutes from Toronto, and a stadium lease that expires in less than a decade — could that team be the Buffalo Bills?

    Nope

        I don't see Toronto getting an NFL franchise.

        1. They have no stadium.
        2. The Canadian dollar is still worth less than the US dollar.

            No NFL Player is going to want to be paid in Canadian dollars. PERIOD. This will never, ever happen. LA Bills, now that's the one that scares me. If Buffalo indeed has the lowest ticket prices than we had better start raising them. This feels like a setup. We had to move the team, we couldn't get the ticket prices up to match the prices in other markets, etc., etc., etc.

              the canadian dollar is stronger against the dollar than it has been historically. of course, a devalued dollar is official US policy these days. remember the old days, when the ratio was 2:1?
