Why? It's pretty much just a list of the top MSA. Only a couple teams break the exception.*

*These statements may not be true, it was just a quick glance.

rangers have a lot going on for them. for one, they're experiencing there 1st real success they've ever had in franchise history, they're under new ownership, just got a gigantic tv deal been to backtoback world series and are in a large market that's been untapped b/c the team has been so irrelevant the entire time it's been here

Toronto could be much higher if they started to win and got the city back into the 1990s like moments.

its the 4th biggest sports market in North America... though ill admit it hasent made much a difference fot baseball as of late. It did in the 1990s though. SkyDome was packed every game, and ud be lucky to get ur hands on a pair of tickets.
