Oklahoma City already has pro football-The OU Sooners. By any measure OU football has an enterprise value larger than some of the smaller NFL teams, such as Jacksonville Jaguars, Cincinnati Bengals, or Nashville Titans. So much like Austin Texas or Columbus Ohio don't have the NFL, our market isn't big enough to support 2 teams.

When I was paying attention to the Las Vegas MLS expansion efforts a couple years ago, I recall MLS is already committed to 35 or 37 cities total. And OKC is not on the list. A league going from $20 million (or so) franchise fees 12 years ago to $350 million today is as big a gamble on the future as it was 48 years ago when Pele signed with the New York Cosmos of the NASL.
