Great idea, but still not as great as D.C.

Portland should be on the bottom of the list. Portland only has one major franchise and for good reason - Paul Allen (Blazers owner) wants to keep the Blazers as the only game in town. Now the Blazers are a big joke and should be one of the worst teams in the Western conference this season. Portland doesn't have an MLB grade stadium - will the city pay $500 million for some stadium just like its big brother Seattle? And Portland is only 2/3 of the size of Montreal, why not go to East to a larger city (DC, heck, even New York - it had 3 teams in the 50s, it sure as heck could support another one now)?
