I don't think anybody was altruistic in saying, you know what?
We need to help out the little guy here.
Because I don't think anybody is that philanthropic.
I also saw something that you have the potential for a hockey team.
No, this would be a soccer team.
Okay, here we go.
The MLS, according to my source, is looking to move the Vancouver Whitecaps of the MLS to Vegas.
So if that's the case, Vegas is going to have NFL, baseball, NHL.
They'll have the NBA, and then they could have the MLS.
A decade ago, even one of those teams in Vegas was a long shot.
You know how many people are in the metro area?
2.4 million.
That's 25th largest in the country.
It'll be interesting to see if they can support all of this.
Now, they are banking on tourism, certainly for football.
But, you know, 81 games in Vegas for baseball, hockey.
You're going to have 40-some games with the NBA.
I mean, that's a lot of sports.
In an area that can support it.
And tourism has been down in Vegas for a few years now.
