I am not against Canada in any way. I go up there every winter its a nice place to go and relax. I just have a problem with the MLB, NBA, and soon the NFL. All have sports franchises in Canada.

Toronto Blue Jays=MLB
Toronto Raptors=NBA
Toronto Bills(or whatever name the Bills change it to when they eventually move to Toronto)=NFL


I do not understand how the NATIONAL Basketball Association and NATIONAL Football League somehow includes a completely different country.

Can someone please explain?
No I am not. Haha. My cousin lives up there its an amazing place I just do not understand how an American sports organization somehow has to involve Canada.
 
because we want more exposure internationally...that's basically why we had the World Baseball Classic. back a couple years ago...
