OMG, no, their fan base covers six states, which, even though the states are relatively small, is a pretty big base all things considered. The Red Sox are huge where I grew up. It's the biggest sport in New England. And generations have been waiting aeons for them to finally win. There is such a history of their many close calls. I don't remember ever not following baseball. Other sports I became a fan of as I got older, but baseball has been with me forever.

In this country sporting teams don't get a following unless they've had at least a few years of sustained success. We are kind of sports mad though and we've killed the sport of cricket cause the other teams now suck so much. Seriously when England is the second best in the world, something is seriously wrong lol.
