-------------------------------------
The list of pro sports "traitors" is quite long.

Starting with Baseball:

In no particular order:

The Braves have moved from Boston to Milwaukee to Atlanta.

The Athletics have moved from Philadelphia to Oakland with a stop some
where else I can't remember.

The St Louis Browns became the Baltimore Orioles.

The Washington Senators became the Texas Rangers with a stop some
where else I can't remember.

Another Washington team became the Seattle Mariners with a stop some
where else I can't remember.

Can't remember if the Expos were an expansion team or not but now they
are in Washington DC.

Switching to football:

The Rams started in Cleveland, then Los Angeles and now St Louis.

The Cardinals started in Chicago, then St Louis and now Phoenix.

The Colts started in Baltimore then snuck out of town in the middle of
the night to Indianapolis.

The Browns started in Cleveland then snuck out of town in the middle
of the night to Baltimore and became the Ravens thanks to Art Model.

There are more but you get the idea.

Don't follow basketball but there have been more moves than teams.

Somehow the Lakers and Los Angeles just don't seem to fit.
