They could feasibly go as high as 36 teams without expanding their schedule, ending up having teams only play in-conference games. -- nm - znufrii 🦄 May 19, 07:45
I can't see that ever come into play in North America. Who's paying$500M for a franchise that could end up playing in the minors? -- nm - Reagen May 19, 07:41 6
