>2 teams from the same fucking city belong to different conferences
>could hypothetically meet in Super Bowl
How the fuck does that work? If you aren't gonna put them in the same division at least put them in the same conference.

Also
>New York gets 2 teams
>L.A gets 0
?????
Why? They are both in the east. Same deal with yankees/mets and cubs/sox.
>>63826239
Which is dumb and ruins potential GOAT rivalries
Why make it so there's more travel time?
>>63826211
>2 teams from the same fucking city belong to different conferences
>could hypothetically meet in Super Bowl
But it avoids the far more likely possibility of them meeting in the playoffs.
>>63826255
When one team sucks everyone hops on the others bandwagon. If you're rivals that won't happen.
>>63826467
Which is good you idiot
>>63826211
>could hypothetically meet in Super Bowl
Which has happened litterally 0 times in 49 Owls and is unlikely to happen anytime soon.
Plus: In the last 3 Champions League finals, there was one purely German and one purely Spanish final. Nobody complained.
>>63826211
Because of TV
CBS has the AFC and Fox the NFC
That's the reason 2 teams will move to LA, they both want a LA team in their hands
>>63826467
This is what I always assumed happens in New York.
>>63826211
this. fucking this. a thousand times this
the 2000 world series was complete bullshit
>NY vs NY
fuck you
>>63826540
i complained
>>63826540
Still had the potential to happen regardless
>>63826438
I dont care if they meet up in WC/first round, I don't want th having the chance to meet up in the final of the tucking sport
Just make them divisional rivals and watch ratings for their games soar
>>63826524
Unless you run one of the teams which means your team has no fans and ends up being eternal basement dwellers.
A smart junior high grad like yourself can probably understand this.
>>63826624
Works fine for Clippers/Lakers and Rangers/Islanders right now
Eventually both franchises go through inevitable ups and downs and end up with roughly the same amount of core fans.
Surely a NEET like you can understand this, no?
>>63826651
Except everything you said is wrong. Lakers and Rangers are 2 of the most valuable teams and brands in sports. Clippers and Islanders are mid tier at best.
>>63826211
Different divisions, different conferences = more fans & more $$$. That's the NFL's only goal.
>Jets/Giants
>Ravens/Redskins
>Steelers/Eagles
>Rams/Chiefs
>Texans/Cowboys
>Raiders/Niners
>Bucs/Dolphins
>Bucs/Jags
>Panthers/Titans?
All these teams close to each that only play once every 4 years.
>>63826467
This.
When the Cubs made it to the NLCS this year, all the Sox fans still mocked and hated the Cubs. When they got swept, it was almost like we were the ones who won.
The NFL purposefully does this. I guess their eggheads have calculated that they male more money this way. Kinda makes sense, given that the average New Yorker just roots for whichever of the two teams is doing better
If both the Chargers and Raiders move to LA, one will have to change conference's
>>63830480
^Correct. The L.A. Rams were in the NFC.
>>63826565
Rags/Isles fans hate eachother. Yankee fans are usually willing to root for the Mets, but Mets fans will never root for the Yankees. Football and basketball are kind of like that though.
>>63826211
They share a stadium that shit wouldn't work in the same conference let alone the same division you retarded syrup slurper
>>63830770
Why not? It's reasonable to expect two teams to cannabalize their fanbases.
>MUH LOCAL RIVALRIES
