OT: Favorite sports team in each state

[Joey007]

Click bait. Just looking for a reaction trying to piss off Cowboy and Yankee fans. Like we believe Chargers rule California? They don’t even compare in their own city.

And Michigan fans. Check Michigan!

Connecticut has been the bane of my existence for 30 years now!! I moved to NYC in 1990, so every trip home had to include a three to four hour stop and go trip on I-95 in Connecticut. I have made this trip so many times and I an honestly say, I have never travelled I-95 through Connecticut without having to come to a complete stop at least once!! WHY?? How can you have a traffic problem for thirty years and not fix it??? Seriously, aside from the Indian casinos, what is in Connecticut?

My only break from Connecticut came after I moved out to Suffolk County and found the ferry to New London.

Now I'm in DC, and I have to come home for a wedding and once again I will be stuck in traffic in Connecticut!

I say just remove Connecticut! Wouldn't be great if Rhode Island bordered NY State!

The traffic situation here is an absolute mess, pretty much every highway in the state is a total disaster. Part of it is bad drivers but a lot of it is just how poorly designed the highways are. Random left exits at terrible positions, constant construction that even once it is finished will need to be redone thanks to some shady handshake deal between some politician and construction company, and highways that should be 4 lanes but are condensed to two. If anyone has ever driven through the "mixmaster" by the Waterbury mall that is all you need to know about the CT highway system.

Twitter mentions sound about right. The methodology must be bad. OSU would only come out on top because the only team that Lions, Tigers, Pistons, Red Wings, MSU, U0fM, etc., fans have shared hatred for is Ohio.

Yep, exactly. I said 2018, but it's actually likely 2017. It would explain the Chargers (they moved to LA in 2017; lots of twitting I bet), the Astros (winning the World Series in 2017), the Supersonics (lots of chatter in 2017 about relocation/Tacoma), and Jeter bough the Marlins in 2017.

Bruins in NH ? Not to dig the B's, I enjoy them as much as the next guy...well, not as much but... No way they are more popular than the Pats. I'd go so far to Say the B's are third behind the Sox.

Most of my family lives in CT and it's a ****show all around. The highways are pretty terribly designed, second only to the traffic farms that exist in VA.

The mixmaster in Waterbury, the 84/91 interchange in Hartford (also 91/15 is ****ing weird), and that weird stretch of 84 between Farmington/West Hartford...completely dumb setup.

I grew up not far from Waterbury and now live right by that stretch in Farmington/WH and those are literally the first two places that pop into my mind when I think of how bad the highways are designed. I lived down in Tampa for a while and to get from Pinellas (lived in St Pete for a while and worked in Clearwater) and there was a lot of traffic but at least it was traffic that made sense. There are a few big bridges that connect Hillsbourough and Pinellas county and at rush hour when everyone is on them obviously there is traffic. I can live with that but when there is traffic at any random time of day for seemingly no reason it is just maddening.

Screw Connecticut....they have always been Giant fans...

Mississippi fails again. Is it just the Manning social media engine?

The Chargers on here is just so bad. I can’t believe they’d rank above any of these teams:

49ers
Lakers
Warriors
Dodgers
Giants
USC
UCLA

I think even the SJ Sharks and Rams are also above them.

Philip Rivers whole family voted. That tipped the scale.

 

[festy1986]

As someone from Maine, I find this to be offensive.

Feels like they HAD to get the Red Sox on there somehow.

Ya right.

 

[festy1986]

and as a follow up, the Chargers are the most popular team in California? Come on people. This dog **** list if you can call it that is not based in reality.

Whats going on over in Alaska that put the Celtics as top dogs?

EDIT

Bills above Yankees. Nuff said.

Hint: look at the name of the organization providing the statistics, and what the abbreviation would be. . . .

[Besides, I believe that the correct answer is UConn basketball.]
