Just some thoughts on the potential repercussions of such a division...

I think covid and the political situation in the US will definitely impact some players desire to play in certain cities.
They are human and it would be hard for anyone not to think about these things.
Having said that, comes down to the player and how much they care about those things vs a competitive team, money, weather, parties, taxes, being well known in public or hiding under the radar, media pressure etc.
I imagine there's a pros and cons list each player mentally makes when they have the ability to decide where they're going.
Probably impacts the guys with families differently than the single guys too.
