    Remember these Chuck Norris Facts

    1. When Chuck Norris does a pushup, he isn't lifting himself up, he's pushing the Earth down
    2. According to Einstein's theory of relativity, Chuck Norris can actually roundhouse kick you yesterday
    3. There are no such things as lesbians, just women who have not yet met Chuck Norris

    Mine are loosely based on:

    1. Rich History / Success
    2. Fan Loyalty
    3. Market Value

    From a historical perspective: Dodgers, Cardinals, Giants, and Reds or Cubs.

    Based on recent performance: Cardinals, Braves, Mets and Dodgers.

    No love for the Braves? Now I'm no Brave-lover, but c'mon! Their hats & merch are everywhere, they've got major TV exposure w TBS, and history? Great history, all the way back to Boston! Home Run king Hank Aaron was a career Brave. Those great years in the 90's....i dunno, I think some of you guys might be sellin' them a bit short.


    Other than that, Dodgers, Mets & Cubs

    Problem with the braves... the fans in Atlanta got spoiled and stopped showing up at games. I included St.Louis because of the rabid, devoted, gracious fans.

    Mets are anything but a 'marquee' team...as they are essentially second class citizens in their home city. The same can be said of any two-team town. Marquee team, Cubs or White Sox? Marquee team, Knicks or Nets? Marquee team, Dodgers or Angels?

    Next four would certainly be:

    -Dodgers (LA is second only to NY as a media market, combined with the rich long history of the organization)
    -Cubs (Chicago's another big market, with a long history as well)
    -Cards (great fans, long history)
    -Tigers (recent success has pushed this historically rich team to the front)
