    You are the new owner of an NFL expansion team......
    What city would you locate it to and the name of the mascot?

    Also you can draft any 3 players in the expansion draft... who would they be?

      The city would be LA. However, I'd have to think about the other couple of parts of the question sir.

        LA is doing fine without a pro team. They have the Lakers, USC, UCLA, great weather and a lot to do...San Diego is not far either. Sure it would be nice to have one but they don't need it.

          San Antonio, Texas. 7th largest city in the US. Has an empty dome waiting. And plenty of surrounding cities to draw from as well(mainly Austin).

          3 players: Adrian Peterson, DeMarcus Ware, and Ben Roethlisberger.(All youth)

            I agree with Panic on San Antonio. The city could and would support an NFL team very well, plus the local paper wouldn't have as much room for all of the Texas Longhorns crap they publish. However, there's no way in hell that Jerry Jones up in Dallas is going to allow that to happen and take away a huge chunk of his fan base.

                Mexico City, Largest city in the world! 100,000+ EVERY Game!
                We would be known as the Earthquakes

                I'd take Tony Romo, Steven Jackson, and Mario Willams as well.

                        LA has had teams before, lets face it LA has things to do people don't care about the NFL out there...

                        San Antonio is nice, but I doubt Jerry Jones would let that happen, although Jerry wouldn't be able to stop it.

                        Vegas
                        SA
                        Oklahoma City
                        San Jose (possible because LA is a flop its been done before).

                          Agree, Willie Bee. If I was the owner. But I think this is less of a pipe dream, and close to being a reality. And it would not suprise me to see someone like Cuban(another billionaire) do it. That would be 3 billionaires in Texas owning football teams and competing.
