Nashville Predators are leaving....

Today it was announced that the Nashville Predators will be sold and relocated out of the city of Nashville. This would make the 3rd team to leave Nashville this year, the first two being ABA Club Nashville Rythem and the other being the Nashville Kats who folded of the AFL. Fans in Nashville seem to be saddened by the news, however the NHL has not announced if Nashville would be eligible for an expansion team in the future. Currently the city of Nashville is trying to work out a deal with the owner of the Memphis Grizzlies. The Grizzlies would use the Gaylord Entertainment Center for 8 home basketball games, and the Titans would use Liberty Bell Stadium for two home football games. Either way the loss of the Predators will surely hurt the music city.

First things first, that is the absolute gayest name (seriously) for a stadium.

Now onto more serious matters, you couldn't have expected Nashville to stay with the attendence they received. I mean they were one of the elite teams for the past couple years and they got no reaction out of it. If you build a winner and the fans aren't selling out the arenas, then they have noone to blame other than themselves.
