I am a predators fan. I would be more of a titans fans if I didn’t have to listen to you jabronis hyping up some pretty average players but I still hope they do well more often than not.

I am BRAVES forever though.

I think Nashville gets one in the next 10 to 20. Would be weird to switch but I’d have no choice. My only gripe as a Braves fan is it’s in Georgia lol.

I’d get it and wouldn’t blame you. I think either Nashville or Montreal gets the 32nd team. It looks like the A’s/Rays aren’t going to move, so expansion seems likely. Manfred suggested Portland is guaranteed the next MLB team whether by moving or expansion.

Question for you and everyone else, if Nashville gets a MLB team would you switch?

Would take a year or two but I believe I would have to.

Same ? to Brown but swap Nashville with Memphis.

That would be tough. So many childhood memories of watching them on tbs, and being the reason I love the game. I’m sure I would pull for them depending on who, but still would be B4L.

There are some things that can't/won't change. Yankees, Vols, and Redskins (as much as I've wanted to)

Growing up in NY, my 1st sporting event was a Yankees game in '96. Being born in TN and going back there every summer and listening to Pa and my uncle talk about the Vols got me hooked. I was a casual Rangers and Knicks fan before the Preds and Grizz came about, but living down south shortly after their existence made it easy to switch.

I'd pull for the Nashville team if/when they get one, like I do with the Titans, but I don't think I could ever actually change allegiances.

Your hypothetical is different because you're talking about a scenario where a team actually came to your home city vs. one that is just somewhat close by but people I knew actually thought it might be difficult for me to stay a Braves fan when the Expos became the Nationals because it's only a few hours away from us and I'm already (unfortunately) a fan of the football team there.

Sometimes I wonder what those people are up to these days because I sure as **** don't talk to them anymore.
