Re: Can any team move cities?
The Colts were pretty 'iconic' in Baltimore and the Browns perhaps even moreso in Cleveland.
The Rams probably fell a little short of that status in LA.
The Dodgers and Giants were thought to be kind of untouchable in Brooklyn and NY but that was a long time ago.
I think the leagues could strongly discourage a move of the Yankees or Red Sox and suggest that the owners sell the teams instead. I do think MLB would find a way to prohibit such a move.
