(@Landmass Wave, please do the alignments after this post).
More on 1962:
The MLB adds two teams to the NL, the New York Mets and the Houston Ravens. (no teams are added to the AL, despite Toronto, Montreal, San Diego, and Dallas).
The Giants, Dodgers, 49ers, and Pirates stadiums all open.
As part of the new stadium, the 49ers rename themselves the San Jose 49ers.
The NASL sees the new 49ers stadium and says, "Hey, that's cool lets have a team play in that", and the San Jose Earthquakes add 9 teams to the new NASL.
The Washington Senators move to Minneapolis, MN and become the Minnesota Millers (the minor-league team name, but I changed the "city" to Minnesota, with the Vikings as precedent).
The Miami Dolphins rename themselves the Florida Dolphins.
Neither football league is interested in Houston at the moment, nor is the NBA. Not even the NASL.
