I guess i jumped the gun there a bit. I heard rumors of that happening, but after doing a little digging, I realized its mostly rumors.

The truth behind it: the bills are increasingly playing their games in Toronto, and they may move to Toronto after 2012.
-The Sabres have played a few of their homegames in the Blue Cross Arena in Downtown Rochester, but it looks like no move is coming out of it.

My point about this was just the fact Orlando has connections with Miami. But in reality I feel both Tampa and Orlando can compliment Miami, I just feel like Orlando does it best. Not saying Orlando wins every category but overall I think it is the best compliment to Miami in the state. Sure we don't have the professional sports teams and world class amenities(We Do But They Suck), but the atmosphere, the entertainment, tourist, airport, restaurants, things like that. But either way whichever city compliments Miami best I would be ok as I love both Orlando and Tampa.
Thing about that, it does not have the second tallest building in the state outside of Miami.
The Atlanic coast is more important then the Gulf coast of Florida? That may or may not be true. It comes down to more then number of ports. you have to factor in the number of tourists, the size of the posts and amount of trade, ect. And don't forget what the largest port in the state is both in land and trade, The port of Tampa. Even if The Atlantic coast is more important, Orlando is not even of the Atlantic so I don't see your point. Orlando may have more connection with Miami due to location. And it may complement Miami's entertainment, tourism, and airport, but I think Tampa complements Miami more so in amost every other category. Including skyline because even if we dont have the tallest building in Florida outside of Miami, we do have the second largest skyline. But thats all my opinion. Tampa and Orlando are very close, so its all very debatable.
