From a distance standpoint, I see Atlanta staying for a few more years. However, more and more teams in the West are popping up, and I definitly agree that this issue needs to be addressed.

However, many Eastern and Midwestern teams are crowded into sponsor centers, i.e., some teams rely on shared sponsors for travel fare AND competition fees. While this makes it more competitive, sending everyone to California becomes exceedingly difficult.

I see Denver, Salt Lake City, and St. Louis as possibilities in the future (region-wise), as well as Chicago. Chicago I am sure has the capacity to hold teams, and I am not familiar with the others capacity wise. As Nikhil said, Indianapolis is very well-geared to hosting.

I will likely not be attending college in Indiana, so I don't feel that biased considering Indianapolis a pretty decent Championship venue. From a standpoint of access however, Detroit and Chicago probably beat out Indy.
