    The Bills were still among the favorites to move west or at least to Toronto. The franchise has already explored options in Toronto and continues to play at least one game per season north of the border. Saturday morning Albert Breer of the NFL Network confirmed AEG has been in regular contact with more than five teams. The assumption is the Bills are the favorites to make the list and perhaps the premiere candidate for the move. At 92-years-old, there is no telling how much longer Ralph Wilson will be around to keep the franchise in Western New York. “If he dies, the Bills would be at or near the top of any list for possible relocation,â€￾ Jerry Sullivan of the Buffalo News wrote (via PFT). “Wilson has no known succession plan. He plans to have the team auctioned to the highest bidder. It’s hard to imagine the top bid coming from someone who intends to keep the Bills in this market.â€￾ AEG would very likely be able fill the role of the “outside bidderâ€￾ to take the franchise out of its home since 1960.

    I was thinking the same, Mush. "Let's wait for him to die, then we'll leave Buffalo. Then we can give California another team that reaches mediocrity once every few years."

    How would the divisions be reworked?

    How many teams have to fail in LA before they stop getting a team?
