We’re eight weeks into football. While most are concerned if our players are kneeling or not, we here at The Hot Take want to move forward and focus on the 28 states that don’t even have professional football teams.

That’s right. More than half of the states in the United States of America don’t have a football team.

So if kneeling or not kneeling offends you, maybe it’s time to move to one of these 28 states that are so progressive and so ahead of the curve that they don’t even have a football team. Here they are in alphabetical order:

Alabama

Pecans might be this state’s official nut, but we think this state is nuts to not have an official football team.

This is Alaska.

In this state you legally cannot push a live moose out of a moving airplane, you also can’t cheer for their football team, because they don’t have one.
