    So, who did Auburn, N.Y., piss off to be No. 399?

    I guess you would have to go a step further and say that Pennsylvania is the best state because of three championships - The Phillies, The Steelers, and The Penguins.

    I am not hating by any means, but wouldn't a city need to have a team in all four major sports to win this title?

    And Philly No. 2?

    Fuck that.

    Detroit... the Wings are awesome, the Lions are hilarious to watch, the Tigers make it interesting and I think Detroit used to have a basketball team too.

    I guess, but I always find it strange to lump Philadelphia and Pittsburgh together. They are very different cities and farther apart than you think. Philadelphia is much closer to New York than Pittsburgh and Cleveland, Cincinnati, Washington and Baltimore are all closer to Pittsburgh than Philadelphia is.

    How does a city with only two major league sports franchises get to be ranked No. 1?

    And they will make themselves heard. (See Ryan and tstumpf, with more to come). :)
