I think the problem is that you would need 8 new teams, LA TO Portland, LAv2 CHIv2 SanFran Vegas SanAnTonio are the only teams I can see being added with LA and Sanantonio being the only ones really adding anything to the media pool.

Because the CB is designed so that the players now get the TV money and everything else goes to the NFL/Owners/Costs I can see them doing this but it would cause a big riff in the next CBA contract talks. Also that would be one hella large league.
