A - Yes. Although I think several NFL (maybe all?) players are overpaid already, there have been several instances in major sports where big spending fails to translate into success (see Knicks, Yankees, etc.). Small market teams could still compete with the big spenders. So the removal of the cap would not deter me from following the NFL. I would certainly frown upon a move like this stemming from the shortening of the CBA, but I think things will be worked out.

B - Yes. Not hard for me since I'm not from MIN or anywhere close to that area. Although the Vike's move could mean that I could potentially be closer (or farther, I'm in VA) to attending games, I'd still prefer to have the Vikes in MIN for historical and nostalgic reasons. Regardless, I'd still follow the NFL/Vikings.

AB - Yes. ...

yes if there were no salary cap

i think yes if they move, been a fan for a while and i just won't change when they move, it would be harder for me to watch them if they moved a ways away but i'd still be a fan

AB- yes

1.) Yes

2.) I do not know if I could be a fan of a distance team. I hate the packers and bears also. So It would be very tough. I doubt it actually.
