They move there and immediately convert. It's the darnedest thing.

But, I don't think I like any teams who have multitudes of fans in other locales who have never lived in the general area of the team.

It's not the teams' fault they have loads of douche bag fans. I know that. But here we are.

Just razzing you pete.

I think there are a lot of Cubs "fans" because it's a very easy team to like, the anti-yankees in adorable packaging. They are also one of the few teams that you have been able to watch on national TV for decades

I think I am supposed to cheer against Cleveland because of the racist logo.

This is complicated.

Cleveland has two positives: AL and small market

Neither outweigh being Cleveland or the Indians

C'mon pete

I do love Eddie Vedder and Bill Murray.

If Cleveland wins, think of how many Cubs fans will forever hate them. Wow.

Pete · « **Reply #2110 on:** October 30, 2016, 10:49:11 PM »

But, Theo Epstein will probably win a couple there, so no big deal over the long haul.

I know its tsc, but its damn hard to cheer for the rhe cubs. Only one or two likable players. I mean come on, guys like Schwarber? Gross City.

Cleveland fans are worse than cubs fan, imo. After all the "Cleveland against the world" stuff, I just want to make a shirt that says "Let's all gang up on Cleveland" and wear it around.

This is how much Cleveland fans think of their team. The Indians ranked 28th out of 30 teams in average regular season HOME GAME attendance...less than 20k per game.

great job of rallying behind the american league champions by american league fans in cleveland.

Cleveland is gross. Nobody outside of Ohio cares if they win and according to bones129's link not many people inside Ohio care either.

mocat · « **Reply #2121 on:** November 01, 2016, 11:02:23 AM »

the 0-8 cleveland browns average 67k fans per home game (92% capacity) but the american indians can't get 20k fans in the seats. weird.

Hey check out this picture of the Cuyahoga River flowing through beautiful downtown Cleveland. It's still on fire after all these years!
