Re: Wisconsin District Rankings

If the WI-IL district had a team density like Michigan, that would be rather a far distance. And geographically, the LP of Michigan is the vast majority of teams, and is a land area comparable to Wisconsin or Illinois individually.

PS: The only time I know of so far where there has been a change to a district border happened (in 2016?) with PNW where the one Alaska team wanted to be part of the district, and so PNW is now WA, OR, and AK.

PPS: Woo! 1,000 posts!
