With the Angels/Indians playing in Miller Park, I was thinking more things should be at neutral sites.
Reason #1: How about a 17th NFL game for everyone. Each team plays one game in LA, so there's no expansion team there. Each team still gets 8 home and away games. Add a week to the season so 18 weeks. 16 weeks of the year there's a game in LA, between a different of the 32 teams. Or rotate that game in multiple places besides LA, like England, Mexico City or wherever.
Reason #2: Or say this year, Milwaukee could offer the Bucks up to play at different places like Branson, Anchorage, and Cheyenne. No lose situation. Bucks fan's win because they don't have to watch and people in those towns see real live NBA action.
Reason #3: The Badgers really struggled this year with neutral site games. 3 of their 5 losses came not at their opponents arena but at a neutral site. I think they would have benefited from playing in a neutral arena more often. Maybe the 50/50 fan base confused them.
Reason #4: Why even have city names attached to some teams? With the Heat, Diamondbacks, Marlins winning championships with players that were there for only one or a couple seasons do those towns even identify with them? Sure Miami and Phoenix are big time cities but no tradition might as well start a new trend.
One of my least favorite discussion in sports is if a team should be tanking its games to get better draft position. The NFL goes straight by record, it's hard to lose a football game on purpose though, you can get hurt. The NBA you only increase your chances through the lottery. I am proposing a system that the team that gets the most lottery balls would be the team that is eliminated from the playoffs first and then each team follows in place. You can't justify tanking games when you are still mathematically eligible to get to the playoffs.
This past weeks American League games held in Milwaukee between the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim vs. the Cleveland Indians of Milwaukee was quite a success. Having attended the game on Wednesday, April 11th I was able to witness numerous references to the movie Major League and contests about Cleveland Indians players I knew nothing about. If you were unable to attend the game, it is too bad because I do not think I will ever be able to get seat that close to any major sporting event ever again for only $10. As you can see we were able to get at least one ball from our great $10 seats. This was the second American League game I saw in 2007, as on Friday, April 6th I was in New York to watch the Yankees take on the Baltimore Orioles. Having now travelled to see games in both Boston and New York in my life, I must say that Red Sox games are way more entertaining, primarily due to the fact they are real fans and don't boo at everything that does not go there way. 
One of the things I realized from my week of watching Amercian League baseball was how much I miss this and it brings me back to my youth. I started thinking about it more and I think we all should consider trying to watch the Brewers in 2008 play at an American League ballpark. What are you thoughts?
When I was working out on Wednesday, I was watching the Hot List on ESPNEWS and was surprised how fast the women's college basketball season moves. Here is why I am surprised:
