RE: Another look at the NFL-AFL merger: LA, SF, & DAL to the AFC
The tv contracts might look a little different—

The AFC would own the West, have a split presence in the South and Northeast, but virtually non-existent in the Midwest.

The NFC on the other hand, would own the Midwest. I also think there Northeast presence far outweighs the toe hold the AFC would have: NYG, PHI, WAS, BAL, PIT > NYJ, BUF, NE

Maybe the tv packages become more division based—rather than receiving all 3 divisions of 1 conference, a network might get 2 from 1 and 1 from the other:

Package A: AFC East, AFC Central, NFC West
Package B: NFC East, NFC Central, AFC West
