Would have to go LA - especially if you include college UCLA and USC trump AZ and AZ State

Lakers and Dodgers - but they do lack a NFL team - that still boggles my mind - Jacksonville FL has an NFL team and LA doesnt

Yeah Greenbay population 101,000 has NFL
LA population 3.8 million (17 million in metro) does not.

That has to be the most ridiculous comparison yet. ^^^ The one about GB and LA.

Nice. I choose Phoenix only because the cardinals are pretty good, but i am not sure how theyll fend this year. The suns are great, ASU baseball is 1 or 2 seeded.Coyotes got into the NHL playoffs for the first time. DBACKS suck though. Why doesnt LA have an NFL team-ill start that thread in the sports section! Thanks!

I voted Phoenix, I'd rather have 1 team represented for all 4 major sports than 2 MLB, 2 NHL, 2 NBA, but NO NFL? thats a big gap.

Yeah I'm so with you on that one!

I like the Lakers more than the Suns, but Phoenix has it all. Besides, the Suns are REALLY good anyways.

Yeah a lot of people don't realize Phoenix has a nice little sports town going on.

Los Angeles is stronger in college sports. UCLA has more NCAA championships than any other university in the country at 105 now and USC has 87 (the third most in the country). Plus, both exceed in sports and academics over the Phoenix schools!
