If you support them and push them to the nfl. It would be two maybe three years before you guys get what you want.

Add 12-16 new teams in a seperate league, all teams in cities that do not have teams. Possible/likely locations: Los Angeles (for two teams), San Antonio, Birmingham, Las Vegas, Mexico City, Salt Lake City, Portland, Oklahoma City, Louisville, Richmond, Guadalajara. These teams are NOT farm/development clubs for the NFL; they are entirely seperate franchises. 2. Games played on Sunday and one Monday Night Game (broadcast as a doubleheader with the NFL game) 3. A Five-Year Committment. during that time, decide to a) fold the division b) take a few successful teams into expansion teams c) make it a farm league or (my favorite) d) promote the annual champion to the NFL, replacing the team with the worst overall record, and have the runner up in a playoff game with the second-worst record. I'd love to see the Detroit Lions sweat it out over being replaced by Los Angeles, or Mexico City have a shot at the Raiders to join the league. And yes, I know English Soccer does it, too. I know a good Idea when I steal it. I say we go the other way…create several new teams, and a second-division league, operated and endorsed by the NFL:
