Biggest American Cities With No Major Sports Teams

Posted on 25 Feb, 2013, by in Featured

A large population in a city or a metro area doesn’t necessarily mean you get to have a team in the NBA, NHL, MLB or NFL.

Posted on 21 Feb, 2013, by in Football

In 2014, the Big Ten, or B1G as others prefer, is going to be a 14 team conference, wit Maryland (from the ACC) and Rutgers (from the Big East) joining the conference that’s mostly been about the Midwest for so many years, but in its own attempt to become a Super Conference, is leaning South, trying to break up the ACC.
