- Why does Cali have 3?
- Why are there 32 NFL teams?
- Why can only 11 men be on the field at once?
- Why is it called football?
- Why does RG3 look like he should work at Good Burger?
- Who has the answer to these questions?

- Why does Cali have 3?
Because we have a population of 38 million, roughly twice that of Florida?

I definitely agree, but were you aware that the state of California, also know as The Golden State, has a population of roughly 38 million? This may not seem like a lot to the average Joe, but that is twice the size of Florida in terms of population.
16
I really think you are forgetting that California's population is twice that of Florida.
10
I heard that if you take Florida's population and multiple it by two you get a bunch of clones.

BUT WHY DOESN'T ALASKA HAVE 6? ITS HUGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
3
Alaska is not huge. It is the 4th smallest state in terms of people that are actually in it.

yeah, I think he was joking champ

Hahah I know. I saw the opportunity to take it a step further and i did.
1
I was talking square footage my man and it was a joke ;)

Hahah I know. I saw the opportunity to take it a step further and i did.

I thought RG3 did work at goodburger?
2
It's a big ass state with lots of people.
46
People who went there to die. Who are already fans of other teams.

Man, the Cowboys are really on another level...
Edit: No more 8500% home attendance.
19
Well 9000% attendance at home certainly helps.
6
the NFC east is on another level

Dude, Washington fans, stop giving Dan Snyder money. Vote against his incompetence with your dollars, it's the only thing he'll understand.
3
Every time you buy something NFL licensed with a Packers Logo on it you are giving Snyder money. Every time you tune into the Packers game, you are giving Snyder money. They could stop going to games, but that's not going to put much of a dent in Snyder's pocket.

How do 13 teams have over 100% attendance at home?
2
Standing section tickets.
9
Damn Chicago. Are people sneaking in? Your attendance percentage is unreal. Literally. It had to be wrong.
1
Maybe Pittsburgh should add some pools to their stadium.
1
I find it hard to believe we're eighth in attendance.

That akward moment when the steelers away game has a ton of black and gold in it.
-57
Congrats, a franchise that's been around 60 more years than another franchise and has had a shitton of success out-does a franchise currently in rebuild mode.
38
That awkward moment when the Steelers have no secondary.
6
Why does Ohio have two?
Why does freaking Missouri have two?
32
I never considered the fact that Missouri has 2 football teams until now. That is kind of strange.
27
KC and StL are both border cities and pull in a lot of fans from neighboring states.
11
Hey now.
6
You're an allstar!
17
GET YOUR GAME ON GO PLAY

Los angeles Chiefs

No disrespect, it's just that one would think that a state with 2 teams would have a higher population than Missouri.
5
I just learned that St. Louis was in Missouri.
A couple months ago, I learned that Kansas City was in Missouri (I thought it was in Kansas).
I don't really have a good grasp on geography outside of the east coast.
3
Technically, Kansas City is in Kansas too. Just not the sporty one.
Also, do you mean just now with St. Louis or just relatively recently? Because I would think that the whole Ferguson thing would have cleared that up.
2
I tied Ferguson to St. Louis but I did not tie either of them to Missouri.
Kind of strange but I never really associated the Rams to a state like I do for other teams.
1
Don't feel too bad. I just found out in the last month or so that New England isn't a state.
Edit: Getting downvoted because I'm bad at east coast geography? Nice
2
Kansas City is in Kansas as well. There's Kansas Citys in both states.
0
I don't really have a good grasp on geography
So you are an American?
-7
For years I always thought Kansas City was in, you know, Kansas.
9
Well you wouldn't be wrong...there is a Kansas city, Kansas. But the more well known one is in Missouri.
6
It is in both states. Just nobody really bothers with the Kansas part of the city.
4
Because Kansas sucks.
5
Really wanted to defend Kansas because my mom's from Topeka...but I got nothing. Andy McKee is pretty awesome?

How dare you use logic
3
Ohio also has almost double the population of Missouri.
5
The Columbus Cheifs would be nice.
-9
Cause Ohio and Missouri both have large cities?
2
St. Louis has the 19th biggest metro area population in the country. KC is 30th. Both are totally reasonable places to put football teams.
2
Because it has three times the population of a state that has one team, or half the population of a state with six teams.
19
Shit where's this state with 6 teams? Did Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Maryland fuse together when I wasn't looking?
9
Yeah they did.
6
Huge football market
14
The same reason NY has three teams. Market size.
Inb4 "Lel there's only 1 team in NY"
14
Where's the LA team?
-11
St. Louis.
13
Oakland.
10
San Diego.
5
Not cool man
1
Gators, Miami, FSU, need I say more?
9
Yeah say UCF
12
USF
1
Ew.
7
Jacksonville State???
2
Florida, New York, and California all have 3.
Ohio, Missouri, Texas, and Pennsylvania have 2.
Washington, Georgia, Louisiana, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan, Colorado, and Maryland have 1.
Arizona, North Carolina, Minnesota, and Tennessee have state teams.
New England has a regional team.
And I don't even know what to call the Redskins team. District team?
The other 24 states ain't got shit.
9
Technically the Carolinas have a regional team...
8
wouldnt the jets and the giants also be regional?
2
If you think deep enough all teams are regional.
7
Minnesota is a "state team"
2
You're right. Correction made.
2
New york has 3 in name sake only...
1
Redskins play in Maryland. So two Maryland teams.
-4
Well the Giants and Jets play in Jersey so the whole list would change according to stadium location. I'm just going off team name.
3
Why does Green Bay have a team?
7
=(
3
seriously, I spend a lot time explaining to my overseas relatives why Green Bay has a team
2
Because Halas gave them money to stay afloat.
1
because they can.
it's not as weird as 2 hockey teams in florida.
6
Meanwhile Seattle, the first U.S. city with its name on the Stanley Cup, has none. Neither does Portland or Hartford or any number of other real hockey towns.
0
it's a big state
5
for you
11
To poop on
5
I mean we are passing New York or we already did.
1
Why does Texas only have 2?
3
We deserve 4 teams.
And they all have to be Texas related.
Rick Perry is the mascot for the Austin Allergies.
1
Yeah Orlando really needs one
1
All the other huge states have 2-3, NY has 3, Texas has 2 California has 3 maybe 4 in the future.
1
Cali has 3 teams. Soon to be 4
1
Eh if the raiders end up moving its still 3
3
It's the fifth most populous state, with 3 metropolitan areas of over 2 million people...
Why does New York have 3 teams? It's the 4th most populous state.
1
What do you need to own an NFL team? Money.
Who has money? Jews.
Where do Jews live? Florida.

Don't worry one is going to London soon

That is without a doubt the dumbest thing anyone says about us.

Florida is actually three seperate states masquerading as one state: South Alabama, Disney World, and North Cuba.
Eh, South Georgia.
Nope, live in pcola definitely South Alabama
