The Metro Areas of those cities are both significantly larger than Columbus (not to mention, they are not college football dominated areas).

Cleveland MSA = 2.9 mil
Cincinnati MSA = 1.9 mil
Columbus MSA = 1.5 mil

Columbus would be a terrible place for an NFL team. Not only is it too small and too close to two NFL markets, but I remember walking from my hotel to the stadium for the Washington vs. Ohio State a few years back, and one of the OSU fans came up to me, we had a nice conversation and he said something like "this is our contribution to the world, we are not a pro town, we don't want pro sports, Buckeye football is what we do."

Na man I don't think you read it wrong at all, Columbus is the largest city in Ohio. It's just not the largest Metro Area, they are two very different things. But for the purpose of this discussion, it's metro area that's what matters.

Another example of this is that the largest city in Florida is technically Jacksonville (while it's not even close to being the largest MSA). It's just all about how far the city extends and how close to the city center the suburbs creep. To stay in Florida, in Miami the suburbs creep very close to the central city (i.e. Carol City where Rick Ross is from), so the result is that the population of the city of Miami is technically only 350,000 but the Metro Area is huge.

Phoenix is the same way, the metro area is almost the exact same size as Seattle's metro area, but the city of Phoenix is twice as large as the city of Seattle b/c Phoenix's city limits extend way out into the dessert, while Seattle's stop much closer in.

Portland would be koo if you see the luv the beavers,ducks an trailblazers get.
But I doubt oregon would ever get a team.Even the high school football games are like them things you see on mtv's two a day.
Only thing I really see is the nine men national an 11 men national football leagues.

ALL I KNOW IS THAT LA SHOULDN'T HAVE ONE. THEY'VE HAD TEAMS BEFORE BUT NEVER STUCK AROUND CAUSE THEY COULDNT SELL TICKETS. I SEEN YOU SOME THE OTHER DAY WHEN THE RAIDERS PLAYED THERE AND THE SEATS LOOKED HALF EMPTY. AND THIS WAS WHEN THEY WERE WINNING, THEY EVEN WON A SUPER BOWL WHILE IN LA

The notion that San Jose should have an NFL team (and therefore, the Bay Area should have three NFL teams) is laughable.

It's about the metro area, not the city size, and San Jose is part of the San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose-Vallejo metro area. How many times do I have to tell you guys.
