They can easily take this team elsewhere. There are likely several cities that would like an NFL team. Be careful what you wish for. Then everyone will be complaining about not having a team for years.

And then we’d get an expansion team within 10 years. NFL doesn’t want to lose the Phoenix market

As a former Seattle Sonics fan, I assure you this is a major gamble regardless of the market fundamentals.

We're the fifth largest city and 10th largest metro area, and the NFL owners hold the annual ownership meeting here every spring. Nothing's guaranteed, but sports leagues like this market. I have no doubt we'd get an expansion team or another one moved here within a decade.

It took LA 21 years but ok.

Fair point. Although a major reason LA took so long to get another team was because they didn't have an NFL-ready stadium until Kroenke bought land and built one. State Farm Stadium already exists, and it's publicly owned.
