Thor99 Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 The Yankees are the highest selling merchandise and most recognizable franchise in all of sports. More than the Jets and Patriots. For most teams in the league, attendance shoots up when the Yankees are in town. The Yankees mean a hella lot to baseball man, you can't deny the cold hard facts. That being said who the **** cares. Pats-Jets on Sunday, you and me both don't know the Yankees and Red Sox exist on Sundays. Go look up who has the best road attendance in baseball. I'll wait.

serphnx Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Go look up who has the best road attendance in baseball. I'll wait. The Montreal Expos! I didn't say necessarily that the Yankees have the highest road attendance btw, I just said most teams have higher attendance when the Yankees come in town, and that is definitely true, and was definitely true during the championship years.

I didn't say necessarily that the Yankees have the highest road attendance btw, I just said most teams have higher attendance when the Yankees come in town, and that is definitely true, and was definitely true during the championship years. The same is true for all big market teams. The reasons are obviously clear. It is not only the Yankees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pats have crushed the Red Sox in head to head ratings matchups for the last decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pats are more popular than the Red Sox. The local and national media fuels the Red Sox fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highly doubt they were blowing up the ratings in 98 99 and 2000;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
