1. Do you have lists of cities where there are sports teams now?

Do you have a list of U.S. cities with their populations?

You'll need all of that to answer your first question.

I already answered the second question.

4). A: Besides population, other factors include the fact that there are fewer local persons that can be recruited for the team, which would result in being unable to obtain superior players but merely adequate ones. Also, another factor is the possibility that wealthy companies would agree to support an athletic team -- especially if there were a large enough amount of people within a couple hour's worth of a drive to the home city?
Answered by Ms. Sue
Most professional athletes do not play for their home town.

Answered by Ms. Sue
For this assignment, a city with a large population is one with a pro sports team.

Also, Ms. Sue, did you believe my geography report required any editing?
Answered by Ms. Sue
A city with a large population is a city with a pro sports team.

I don't think your report needs any more editing.

Then perhaps the cities I would select for the location of a football team would be New York, NY; Los Angeles, CA; Dallas, TX; San Diego, CA; Phoenix, AZ; Portland, OR; and Milwaukee WI; Sacramento, CA; San Antonio, TX; and Oklahoma City, OK?
Answered by Ms. Sue
Don't most of those cities already have football teams?

New York Giants
Dallas Cowboys
San Diego Chargers

No, I researched them and New York Giants, for example, are not located in New York City but in somewhere else in New York.
