It is apparent to me that the NSFL lacks a presence in the Midwestern United States. Theres's the Chicago Butchers, but that's it. The Southwest has plenty of teams, but it seems like there's a giant Great Plains-shaped hole in the demographic coverage. To fill in this gap and to pull in more fans from the region, I suggest we head 800 miles north of Austin.
My expansion team would be the Lincoln Lumbermen, out of Nebraska. Lincoln is smack dab in the middle of the country, and the Lumbermen would be a great representation of the hard working Americans that not only founded this nation, but expanded west into these territories to stake their claim. The Lumbermen would not only represent the history of the region they will represent, they will also pull in a new fanbase that can stretch across the 4 states that Lincoln is the center of: Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri, and Iowa.
On top of a new base of fans in a new region of the country, the Lincoln Lumbermen would offer a new flash to the NSFL. The Lumbermen would use a green, red, and gold color scheme so far unseen in the NSFL, setting them apart from the sameness we've seen (no offense to Colorado, Arizona, or Chicago).
I think this expansion would be a tremendous success should the NSFL decide to take it on. New fans, new uniforms, and new energy through the league.
