I just thought it oddly constructed or specific. If it’s a warmer climate thing, the Jets moved south just three years later. Heck, Nashville started within five years, Atlanta in six, Columbus in seven–but that may be unreasonably stretching the window for those three, offering a slightly smaller sample size.

I just found it odd.

He states in the article that people have criticized moving into these markets, so he looked at how they’ve done and chose these 3 because they entered the league in the same year.

That’s like calling the Thrashers, Ravens, Titans (NFL) and Thunder (NBA) expansion teams.

Now, they look terrible. Seems like they got everything right on the first try, then kept changing it for the worse.
