Those are the oldest teams in each american state.
>>152535623bullshit pic without college teams
>>152535623there's no way the 49ers are older than the dodgers, the dodgers existed before ww2
>>152535623Shit msp
thirdie shit>arizona cardinals founded 1898
>>152535704It only counts when they relocated. It's a stupid map since college teams aren't includedAlso:>NJ>New York Giants
>>152535704The 49ers never moved and were established 1949. The Dodgers moved to Cali in 1957 with the Giants. And if you wanted to give it to the transplant teams the Giants are considered slightly older than the Dodgers.
>>152535730The giants play in new jersey and no one gives a fuck about college teams zoomie
>>152535623DC should be Wizards/Capitals since the Commies play in Maryland while the Wizards/Capitals have played in DC since 1997
>>152535755Not giving a fuck about college teams is an archetypal zoomer thought
>>152535803NTA but if you included college teams the entire map would only show colleges. No pro team ever came before their amateur counterparts. Atleast with pro teams you get some variety.
>>152535803Unless the zoomie is college aged and thinking that college is the bestest most important thing ever in the solipsistic jerk off session that defines zoomerism. But the not knowing the giants play in jersey was the real tell
>>152535819>if you included college teams the entire map would only show colleges.So?
>>152535900well here is the map you wanted
>>152535920Literally killed the thread lol
Any other lifelong Vegas Golden Knights fans here?
>>152536228>and Wisconsin still has no nhl teamKek what a cultural desert
>>152535623college football was around long before the NFL
>>152536791It wasn't a professional sport retard
>>152535920What happens at Transy?
>>152536825OP didn't limit it to professional teams.
>>152535623I assume this is only counting the top leagues, and those sparsely populated northern states have teams that play in the lower leagues
Sporting Kansas City plays and has its stadium in the state of Kansas.Unfortunately, they share a metropolitan area with that garbage that is the Chiefs of the NFL.I wish that someday there would be a state that truly only had a major professional team in Major League Soccer (MLS).
>>152536846>Transylvania university Shit I was hoping that you could tell me
>>152537072>>152536846https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transylvania_University
>>152535623I count 23 states without a team. Sad.
>>152535623>no collegewhat's up with the vira lata inferiority complex to Us Americans?
>>152535920except you'd need a map of oldest American Football team in each state (the vast majority would be 1880's-1890's)
>>152535623You missed some states, tard.
>>152535623Zero heritage. Fake sports. Sad!
>>152535803I assume college teams weren't included because then every stat would just be a college university.
OP's map must be when the team set up shop in that state because the Atlanta Braves go back to 1871 in Boston, while the Falcons only date back to 1965.
>>152535623>cowgirlsAt one point, they used to be good but now and for the past 25 years, they fucking SUCK
>>152540552That and it would require more research because lots of early college teams were very loosely organized. Does it really count if a dozen frat boys played soccer in a field against the local YMCA one afternoon 120 years ago? Pro teams have much easier to define start dates.
>>152535920Santa Clara was before Sacramento or San Francisco? Bizarre
>>152535704The Angels are literally the first team from when they were in the PCL
>>152535732The Angels were established in 1905 as the LA Angels of the PCL. They ended up moving and then reestablished as a American league team 6 years later like the Browns
>>152535704yeah, in brooklyn
>>152535732>The 49ers never movedRelocation is not what the map says though. It says oldest teams in each state. Its a shit graphic desu
>>152535730Giants play in Jersey and have been for years. Earlier than when the Jets moved in, and before the Devils came to NJ from being the Colorado Rockies, and the Nets left for Brooklyn.
>>152535636
>>152535819>NTA but if you included college teams the entire map would only show colleges.Good. Pro sports are for fucking faggots.
>>152535636Trvthnvke
>>152536778Holy rent free
>>152535623mlels ins kansas before the Chiefs?
>>152544068>the Chiefs>ins kansas
>Tennessee>a fucking hockey teamSometimes I forget that Nashville was a completely irrelevant hellhole up until 25 or so years ago
>>152544068>mlelsCringe
49ers moved to South Bay 11 years ago what you talking about. They're not even in the same side of the Bay
>>152540437Half of the MLB is older than your country
>>152545440>Santa Clara isn’t the same side of the peninsula as candlestick retard
>>152544751It was nice until it became 'relevant' and got flooded with outsiders
>>152535623You don't know ball
