"get an expansion team"
go online, go to amazon, and order an expansion team!
The valuations are through the roof because this is a scarce asset. There are only so many teams available and new teams dont become available often and expansion is limited and very difficult to "win" the right to a new team.
You need land, a stadium, governor backing, local political backing, development permits and know how, etc, etc just to be considered. AND in a location the league decides to expand too.
Or you write a 2 billion dollar check and a team is yours (Relatively Speaking)
