Baseball is an extremely regional sport in terms of popularity tbh. Even aside from the fact that its popularity is declining. It’s very northeastern + St. Louis and Chicago in terms of where it’s popular. Also California because of all the northeasterners who moved there. There aren’t many teams in the south or west because it’s just not popular in those regions

Florida doesn't deserve teams and the Braves are a criminal human trafficking team. What I'm saying is the south doesn't deserve teams. Give Montreal their team back cowards.

The better rationale is teams go wjere the market will make them the most money. Historically wealth-producing centers arent in the souts. The area historically has been agriculture-heavy. The north is (was) factory and financial institution based.

Sometimes teams are moving to get public funding for stadiums. There's no reason for a team to be in Las Vegas instead of Nashville.

Technically still part of the Empire, but the Canadian province of Ontairo has among the worst of those:  We've got the Union Jack, sure, but then we've ALSO got the flag of England. Just, you know, hanging out next to each other.

How are things going down there, anyway?quote:“I want to reiterate our unwavering claim for the islands, and I commit that during our government we will be able to have a clear roadmap so that the Malvinas return to Argentine hands,” Milei said Tuesday, using Argentina’s preferred name for the islands, whose sovereignty is the source of a long-running dispute with the United Kingdom. quote:Milei, who was sworn into office in December, said the “best tribute” for those who died during the conflict was to “defend the unwavering claim for Argentine sovereignty” over the islands. lmao

I don't even mean that, just that I don't think people in the UK actually like the government they just don't do much about it.
