> Chris you are correct, but for reasons I stated in my last post I think
it is correct to put Denver in the central...of course we could go back to
having Nationals in states that touch oceans...oops I had better stop
because I'm getting close to the three "No Nos" that I no longer discuss in
public...I remember when I was a new Football fan in 1967...the Atlanta
Falcons played in the NFL "western" division...and the St. Louis Football
Cardinals played in the East....go figure that one.....I now understand why
that was done..one more day and you folks get rid of me..lol...FB
