Dolphins/Saints in San Antonio?

thats kind of an unfortunate thing to be happy about
 
I was considering flying to New Orleans for the game instead of my usual trip to Miami. I'm glad I decided to stick with tradition.

My heart goes out to everyone effected by Katrina
 
Lets just say in theory that the move to San Antonio is permanent. Does the city of New Orleans own the rights to the name "Saints"? Would they keep the name, or change it like the Browns did after the move to Baltimore?
 
Move to San Antonio instead of L.A.? What the hell would they be thinking...
 
I still dont get why the NY Giants get 9 home games cuz of this?
Wassup wit dat Tagliaboo??? :confused:

they'd change it...no doubt

but since Texans is already taken, they'd have to be creative. It would have some Mexican/Old West influence I'm sure

if they moved to la la land, they'd be moving in another 2-3 years anyway because of lack of support. LA has had how many chances to support a team, yet can't?

Admittedly. But instead of having to buy a $250 plane ticket and a $200 hotel room in what's left of the French Quarter, I'm going to be able to drive down the morning of the game and back that evening. Hence the :cpatch: :friday:
 
well i guess i should chime in here since i'm one of two San Antonians on this board...

i hope they get a chance to play here - the Alamodome is a nice facility that the Spurs used to play at until SBC built the SBC center which is nicer, bigger, and has more capacity. The Alamdodome is kind of small for a NFL football field stadium, but will get the job done.

There is NO chance whatsoever that the team relocates here permanently. I do not see that happening - too much politics behind that.

Besides, the "indigenous" people here aren't much for NFL fans.... the Spurs are the thing down here, and every other car has a damn spurs sticker on its back window. They love their Spurs down here.

I personally don't care for them. But it would be nice to be able to watch a Dolphins game in person for the first time in ten years. I know if they do come, myself and Yardman13 will be at the game with Jerseys on... Just look for probably the ONLY aqua and white jerseys in the house ;)
