San Antonio basically had the Raiders. They let Las Vegas come in with the new stadium. Nobody is coming to San Antonio to to play in a stadium worse than the one they are trying to get away from.
Weren't they willing to build a new stadium when courting the Raiders? I know this is old but I swear I remember someone saying a new stadium wouldn't be an issue
@@Itshadow306 Man I truly wish. I'm a Packers fan but I'd root for any San Antonio team. We would need Austin though. We have to be honest. Austin and San Antonio sharing major sports teams is what would get us over the hump
@@markanthony1004 I agree 100% San Antonio and Austin should combine as one region at 5 million people which be more than enough to support every pro team.
I think San Antonio needs to keep an eye out on the Charger situation, there is an internal family feud that might force the sale of the team and they are not wanted in LA, most people still view them as San Diego. While I think that they should go back to SD, San Antonio would be a great option under a new ownership with a complete rebrand where the team name and logo would be more specific to San Antonio. The Charger name, colors, and history would go back to San Diego.
We do have another Pro team in town, an Arena Football team. The San Antonio Gunslingers, they just finished their first season and looking into bigger things for next year. Local owners, sponsored by local businesses, with local talent. Too bad media and the city didn't even bother on paying any attention to them.
Arena football is a joke and has been in this city numerous times. This city is just not able to support a NFL team with the reach of the Cowboys and Jerry Jones deep pockets.
San Antonio needs to get another hockey after the Rampage left, and for football, the best option is the XFL. And currently, San Antonio has an indoor football team named the SA Gunslingers playing this March.
This video didn't acknowledge the San Antonio Texans of the CFL from the 90's. How can you give them an NFL team when this media outlet omits it's CFL involvement? San Antonio will never get another pro sports team because it thinks it's big time and isn't
As much as I would want to see the Brahmas have all sorts of success in the relaunched XFL, I would honestly love to see the NFL bring a franchise to San Antonio. I don’t care if it’s via relocation or expansion. I know for a fact that the city is diehard ready for an NFL franchise and has the market to do so. I’ve even got a few name ideas that would be perfect for their identity. Hopefully if the NFL smart, they will jump on this sooner or later.
@@WMFilms25It’s actually pronounced “Cavalry”, and that’s one of the names I thought of. The other names are Spartans (since the Alamo Defenders faced similar odds), Defenders (though it might clash with DC), Stallions, Knights, Coyotes, Archangels, and Wranglers. Thoughts?
I hate to say it but I wouldn't be surprised if the Spurs move to Austin or Vegas ngl we're too often behind the other big 3 cities in Texas. It seems every great idea that gets approved ends up being tapered down because old people don't like it
Build the stadium in New Braunfels and the combined San Antonio Austin region is more than capable of supporting a team. Team Name: Texas Outlaws Edit: I'm convinced now that the AT&T center has failed as an arena. It has done absolutely nothing to the east side. I don't want any more money spent on the arena. It's time for San Antonio to invest in a new arena downtown to keep the spurs here for the next 30 years.
That’s the future i think. San Antonio and Austin will eventually be like Dallas-Fort Worth, a massive and cutting edge mega-metropolis, with New Braunfels and San Marcos as main midpoints connecting us. Maybe even our airport & sport stadiums will be relocated there. It’s exciting to think about, decades from now, i think it’s gonna happen.
I live in New Braunfles and to be honest its not a good idea, what we have here more is real football and baseball, real football would make a bit of sense there could be a youth team created by select and ajax players, as for baseball the little league all stars could work. Although we have that, having 4 real football teams in texas is a bad idea, MLS has no competition compared to Liga MX so it would attract more, but it would end in tragedy as for baseball we have a whole lot of astros fans here so them converting would be near impossible. We have a good foundation but no good structure, moral of the topic new Braunfles aint ready to have anything.
Magic I guess? That sounds so damn stupid. Austin/San Antonio have to put in a bid together and start thinking about the suburbs off I-35. Austin has the money and San Antonio makes up for the population, but Jerry Jones is still an issue
Bro if we get an NFL team in san antonio, the team name should definitely be based on the alamo because of the alamo dome and the history. Also every fan before kickoff in the stadium should shout "REMEMBER THE ALAMO" as an omage to the battle of the alamo. It would make it seem as another battle is about to take place, and it is technically
Greg Simmons comments of saying he does not know why the hockey team left when they were averging 7000 people in attendance and that SA was not the worse in attendance. You can tell Greg has been there a long time and not to see it. SA is the 7th largest City in the US and with almost 1.5 million people you would think a Franchise Owner would get way more in attenedance no matter what sport it is. And as an owner you are there to make profit. San Antonio is loyal to 2 Teams. The Spurs and Dallas Cowboys. The new soccer Team and UTSA are doing well now so that is a step in the right direction. I used to live in SA and love it but that is how it is down there.
Major pro sports ain't coming to San Antonio. It's a secondary US market. You can pull out all the stats for San Antonio, but it worth a hill of beans to convince pro leagues to place a team there. Lucky the Spurs don't leave for Seattle in the next few years
As much as I would love to see more pro sports here in SA, I hate to say that stories like this give San Antonians false hope. The reality is that San Antonio's unique culture as a city just doesn't translate to a market that is on the level of Dallas, Houston, or even Austin. All three of those cities are all about the individual. We're all about the family. How many SA families would honestly break their tradition of watching Cowboys games after Sunday Morning Mass, just for the new team in town?
Spurs suck booty haven’t watched them in like over 5 years mainly because of pop, I wouldn’t mind if they get sold to LV hell to be honest with you I wouldn’t even notice.
TEAR DOWN THE ALAMO DOME, AND MOVE THE AT&T CENTER THERE why tf the spurs play 15 mins outside of downtown
This will be the ultimate way to go!!

As a Houstonian I'd love to see SA with a NFL and MLB team
As a San Antonian we thank you
Angels and Jaguars need new homes and San Antonio can use more teams built a new ballpark and stadium in New Bruenfuls.

Jeff Bezos has his eyes on them but he would definitely keep them in LA since he had the money to do so
St Louis will get a NFL way before San Antonio will get a sniff from the NFL
@@davidbuswa9425 and loose a team again lol😂
@@michaelbetts8379 At least St Louis had a NFL team to lose. SA always lost whatever teams they had
That would be good but they will have to build a stadium. The Alamo dome isn't going to persuade a team to move to the city.

Exactly 💯.. It's pathetic..

The XFL is dead.
I miss the Rampage so much, Vegas got them too, as well as our city's WNBA team.
too bad cuz the alamo dome is SUPER OUTDATED now. no nfl team would ever wana be stationed there :/
24 of 32 teams have to say yes but both Cowboys owner and Texans owner both have to allow it and they'll never allow it.
The owner of the Texans said he'd be fine with it
True Jerry Jones would be a problem but hey he is not going to be around forever.
It deserves a new NFL team.
San Antonio needs another sports team. I say this as a Floridian.
Agreed the city is too large to only have on pro sports team
I’m from
Toronto but San Antonio deserves a nfl team they can support one just hope thechargers attendance still sucks

They are trying to go big time your right they wanted a mlb team mls and a nfl team
But they want a nil team and nothing’s wrong with that
San Antonio Outlaws Sounds good to me
Raiders dipped when they heard free 700 million in tax payer money in last Vegas

Thoughts?
I always felt that SA supported the Gunslingers of the USFL in 1984 with solid attendance in both 84 & 85
Moving here from the other side of Texas please bring more sports please!!
We need to stop saying we are the 7th largest city, when our metro area comes in at 24th, our market is just not that big enough
We're bigger than green bay, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Jacksonville, Nashville, Indianapolis, and Charlotte yet they have nfl teams, nba and mlb teams?
@@keeganbrown9967and New Orleans

16:34 being from laredo and now living in maine. the real questions are. have u been to the river walk , and are u a spurs fan hahaha
NFL would probably have to expand to 36 teams before San Antonio gets a team
Property taxes have been rising in recent years. No thanks!
Well now the spurs don’t even want to play here and the NFL and MLB won’t let us have teams even though we are the 7th largest city in the U.S.

Maybe a soccer team. I heard there are so many Mexicans there. They don't watch America football
@@luperamos7307 No because Austin has one now. You can make the same case that Austin will never get an NBA team because the Spurs are too close.
