It looks like the Oakland Raiders are looking to move to Oklahoma City in a few years.  Part of OKC's continual development plan calls for an Oakland Raiders stadium.  I'll get a link this evening, but this would be awesome have two professional franchises in Oklahoma

That would be a horrible idea. Isn't OK City basically in the Dallas market anyway? Dallas would dwarf a pro team in OK City so bad it wouldn't be funny. Plus, if a team can't make it in Jacksonville or Oakland, why OK City? I just think that would be a bad move.

That's what they said about the Mavericks dwarfing the Thunder.  We all see now that generally the Thunder is better than the Mavs, at least the past few seasons.

Boo!  OKC isn't big enough to have any pro sports team, even the Thunder.  I want the Jaguars to move to LA instead.

If OKC is too small (which a metro of 1.25 million and an anchor city of 600,000 is not too small), then Salt Lake City is too small for the Jazz and Memphis is too small for the Grizzlies, among other places.
