This time, if they go with that earlier start....do it one week later, or TWO weeks after the Super Bowl. Let fans wind down and actually wake up on a Sunday morning and realize there's no football on and go "oh man" Then really pour it on with the hype.
As for Seattle.....it's just a too crowded sports market now and the SeaDragons barely snuck into public consciousness.

Re: Merger timeline speculation
Disagree on the wind down. You have to keep that routine to keep the viewer attention span. Give a week off, and they'll move on to something else.Sounder wrote: ↑Mon Nov 06, 2023 10:16 am This time, if they go with that earlier start....do it one week later, or TWO weeks after the Super Bowl.

Could be where Penn plays too. But to keep costs down they need to be out of the city and that means SubaruGDAWG wrote: ↑Mon Nov 06, 2023 12:07 pmSo it's either the Linc or Subaru.4th&long wrote: ↑Mon Nov 06, 2023 12:02 pm

Where Penn plays is very busy, because it's not only Penn Football, but also track and field and lacrosse, so there may be some scheduling conflicts.4th&long wrote: ↑Mon Nov 06, 2023 12:15 pmCould be where Penn plays too.

Howard Balzar: Teams not set but likely ones are...
>> Howard Balzer@HBalzer721
Cities not absolutely set, and things could change, but hearing Orlando, Houston, Seattle, Las Vegas won’t have teams. Still fluid.

With the Houston stadium situation, it's definitely possible neither team plays there next year
