we will be ending our 11 year relationship with the Express, and it looks like we will be signing with Nashville....
there are a few problems with this:
1) our new AAA team will be playing well outside our geographical domain
2) we will eventually lose the Austin area and most likely central Texas as a major fanbase
3) Nashville's stadium is run-down. it wouldnt meet the new AAA stadium req's if it were being built today....meh
Hopefully the new stadium in Sugar Land can be finished soon enough to possibly move the AAA team there in the foreseeable future.
#2 is what concerns me the most
