Good one. These shifts are so slow that it sometimes takes 15-20 years to notice the change. Like in 2026 of course a growing company or sports franchise (say MLB) would pick Nashville over Portland, Oregon but in say 2012 that would’ve been laughed at.
@conorsen In Castaway he’s mad that the Titans went to Nashville over Memphis and I remember thinking “yeah that doesn’t make sense, that’s a reasonable reaction.”
