The first step I took when trying to come up with an expansion team idea was to decide on a location. I noticed that an area that is underrepresented by the current teams is the Midwest. There are no Midwestern NSFL teams and the Kansas City Coyotes are the only DSFL team in the Midwest. Looking at the Midwest, the largest city is Chicago and they would make sense as they have a good history of supporting sports teams. Chicago even previously had representation in the DSFL, so it could make sense as a location for NSFL expansion. In terms of a mascot, I looked up the state animal of Illinois and it was the white-tailed deer. This would make sense for the location and would fit well in the NSFL since there aren't any other deer based mascots, so it would be unique. So the name that I came up with was the Chicago Stags. For the color scheme, I like the idea of choosing a color scheme that matches up with an existing NFL team because that makes it easy for graphical purposes and for choosing pictures for articles. The color scheme I decided on was navy and red. It would fit nicely since there aren't any NSFL teams with navy as a primary color and the navy and red color scheme fits with both the New England Patriots and the Houston Texans so it would work nicely for graphical purposes. I think the Chicago Stags would fit well among the current NSFL teams and could be a cool idea for an expansion team.
