San Antonio can support an NFL Team. I have 0 idea why folks are suggesting they cannot. 

Jerry Jones' interests cannot stop it

The UT Longhorn can't stop it

The lack of fanbase can't stop it

A finite resource (NFL Teams) can

I agree that there is enough potential population and resources for a joint SA/Austin NFL Team. Musk has the money to buy a franchise, build a multi-billion dollar complex, pay the relocation fee and fund the Team till it builds a fan base and becomes profitable. 

Bengals don't. And that is the point of this discussion.  

As related to Houston - it was an NFL city already. Texans just filled the void that Oilers left behind. 

Cowboys, Longhorns and Aggies are real hurdles that any NFL Team that would relocate to SA/Austin has to overcome. Unlike Houston, you have to build from scratch. 

As far as Jones, the relocation fee will tell alot. As the great Frank Reynolds crooned "you have to pay the troll toll"
