While most folks think of the US and Europe as places for an American Football expansion team, I think it is time we head West (or really far East) to Japan. Specifically, Tokyo. What better place to introduce the game than Japan’s largest city. While American-style football isn’t hugely popular or well-known in Japan, I think an expansion team would garner a lot of interest in contrast to the popular sports of baseball and soccer. The Tokyo metropolitan area is the world’s second-largest, and largest metro economy. Tokyo could easily support an expansion team, both financially and population wise. Tokyo would be a perfect place to build a base of passionate followers for the game of football.
In homage to one of Japan’s most prominent contributions to pop culture, the team would be named the Tokyo Titans, with Godzilla as the team mascot. One can easily imagine the giant dinosaur stomping all over the team’s opponents, lasers shooting from its eyes. No puny Yeti or silly Otter could ever be a match for one of the most feared behemoths of all time, Godzilla!
In conclusion, its time to bring football to the continent of Asia, and Tokyo is the perfect place to resurrect the Titan Godzilla!
