Team placement over the entire continent is the comparison point. Should you lump most of your teams in a 500 mile radius or spread them out. With the lumping that goes on, why should the media give a rats ass about the rest of the teams in the US when you have ratings to reach in this lone segment of the population (with a high degree of population density)?
You may think it isn't a team by team, city by city issue but the bottom line it is for the market always desides.

Every owner of a sports team wants a winning team and they want to make money from it. and where there is a team that is losing money then they have to find a way to make more money though building a new home to play in or moving to a better market where they can better success.

If there was too much Northeast Fixation there would be one team after another after another losing a lots of money and can you say there are that many.

Remember it is all about the money and all the teams are fixed where they can make the most money.
