I was saying NY state has 8 teams, and I assumed it was the Sabres you had forgotten. Or it’s possible one of the 8 doesn’t play in NY anymore. I’ve got: Mets, Yankees, Bills, Knicks, Nets, Rangers, Islanders, Sabres. Ha! I did totally forget about the Buffalo Sabres! You're right - there are 8 MLB/NFL/NBA/NHL teams that currently play in the state of New York. So, NY state has lost 6 teams over the years (w/ 2 of those still playing in the NYC metro), but still have 8 teams playing within the state boundaries. ....and I'm only counting those 4 sports leagues, of course - not MLS, WNBA, etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to look them up.....they're the LA Clippers now. The Braves of the NBA moved to San Diego first and then Los Angeles.

You forgot the Syracuse Nationals who moved to Philadelphia and became the 76ers, this was after the Warriors left Philly and moved to San Francisco.

77 Hitmen Posted Sunday at 05:35 PM Share Posted Sunday at 05:35 PM Here's an interesting look at just how much of a sweetheart deal the new stadium deal is for the Chiefs and how bad it sounds for Kansas taxpayers: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nitetrain8601 Posted yesterday at 09:38 PM Share Posted yesterday at 09:38 PM On 12/25/2025 at 7:19 AM, WBWSF said: From what I've seen most people in KC and Missouri aren't too happy about the Chiefs moving out of state. Even the Missouri politicians aren't happy about it. The more I've thought about it the more I find it amazing that Illinois hasn't approved the Bears Arlington Heights site. It would be a great thing for the area. If something doesn't change and Indiana offers the Bears a tremendous deal the Bears are going to move out of state, The states of Kansas and Indiana view a NFL franchise as an asset. Even tho the money is putting more money into the NFL billionaire owners pockets Kansas and Indiana think its worth it in the long run. Fans and politicians will be pissed if they leave, but it’s the very same folks saying don’t give them a dime though the Bears are asking for money for infrastructure around the stadium. Bears leaving kind of has to happen tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
