Some comments on teams that moved:

The Kansas City Scouts hockey team becams the Colorado Rockies.
The Atlanta Flames were in expansion team that entered the NHL in 1972,
the same year as the New York Islanders.  (Speaking of hockey moves, 
one could fill a screen with the moves of the old WHA teams, but I won't
go into that.)

In football, it should be noted that not only have the Los Angeles Rams
moved to Anaheim, but they originally moved from Cleveland to Los Angeles.
Also, I believe that the Broncos began their existence in Denver, and that the
Dallas Texans were actually the last NFL team to fold.

In basketball, add the Buffalo Braves, who became the San Diego Clippers,
and the Indianapolis Pistons, who moved to Detroit, and the Minneapolis
Lakers, who moved to LA.
