The thing that people should know about the Red Sox love is that it stretches all the way to Maine. If you go anywhere from eastern CT-RI up through Vermont, New Hampshire, etc.. it's Red Sox nation. Then you watch the Red Sox play in tampa and it's all sox fans.. you watch them play in Baltimore.. it's at least 30% sox fans or more and they are LOUD.. you watch them play in Oakland, same thing..

I'm not trying to discredit the love for the Yanks, they have crazy amounts of fans everywhere. Like I said, it's close.

Football.. The Cowboys are an obvious pick, but I would say the Dolphins, Raiders, Steelers, Niners, Redskins, etc.. are all pretty equal in fanbase around these parts..

Though where I live I see 70% Pats, 20% Giants, 5% Jets, and then everything else.
