IMO - they should bend over backwards to let them in for free basically - cause it would be such a huge shot in the arm for the league and all franchises; but that would fly in the face of biz-ness/profit motive & gouging deep thinking.

Also wonder what old cheap-skate Braley is expecting to get for the Lions? - did I hear he was asking 15 mil ? = that's a total joke IMO.
I agree with you OV. Maybe have them put up some operating capital to prove they can handle things, but I agree expansion fee if they get greedy could be a deal breaker.
