    I hope that Pegula becomes an advocate for SA to get a team & dilute Jones' TX market.

    That would be so weird. You'd have one of the classiest organization in sports (Spurs) and the sleaziest organization in sports playing in the same city (with the same uniform colors).

    I'm not sure what the NFL's rule on distance between teams is, but I doubt Jones could block it. The NFL is ready for three teams in Texas. Whether its Oakland or someone else... you'd have a hard time making a case against San Antonio.

    But it would be like the Bills moving to Rochester and still being called the Buffalo Bills.
    Na... It's more like the Jets & Giants who play in the state of NJ yet are considered a NYC team.

    I don't know if Jones could block it either, but I guarantee he would try to block it.

    The question is how many of the other owners like Jones, would side with him & vote against a team moving there?

    Distance wise the Giants/Jets are closer to NYC than the 49ers are to San Francisco now.

    Texas is so stupid big, i don't think anyone would call San Antonio "Dallas Cowboy" territory. The closest big city is Houston and that's like 200 miles away, Dallas is like 300 miles from San Antonio... That said, this is just a baseless threat to get the city of Oakland to build the raiders a new stadium
    My wife told me that if I had a dollar for every girl who found me unattractive, girls would find me VERY attractive.

    MY WIFE SAID THAT!!!

    San Antonio is absolutely Cowboy territory. Outside of Houston, the Texans are like the red-headed stepchild to the Cowboys.
