1. Couldn't pick an undefeated team. That is jumping on a bandwagon.
2. Couldn't pick an expansion team. They seem made up.
3. Couldn't pick a team in Dallas's division. That would be a hostile home front.
4. Couldn't pick Buffalo. Because they are Buffalo.
5. Wanted to be in driving distance, in case I ever actually wanted to attend a game. (I won't).
6. Wanted to be able to afford a ticket once I didn't get there (Wife just paid $1k to see Dallas in Dallas lose to the Patriots).

But all that aside, my main reason was Ernie Davis.
