Think a MLB team in shreveport would be successful? Guy at work is a huge Astros fan and said La should try to get a team in Shreveport. Draw fans from texas, oklahoma, Arkansas and Miss.

to have a MLB team, a metro area has to have 2mil+ in population, Shreveport misses that by about 1.7 million.

An MLB team wouldn't even be successful in New Orleans.

there would have to be maybe 10% of the city at the games. plus there is a team in Dallas already and that would take away attendance too.

Why would you say Shreveport? If any city would get an MLB team it would be New Orleans or maybe Baton Rouge, but they still wouldn't do it.

Yea, they could attract people from Arkansas and East Texas. I don't see how it wouldn't work.

This is the worst thread I have ever seen on any board on TD.com. There is zero corporate presence in NW LA, NE TX and SW AK. No chance at this EVER coming to fruition. The entire premise is laughable. Your friend is a MORON.
