PS

The “White Sox” state is WAY too large. and it goes too far north.

We need a world map.

And a bigger Cubs country.

Shouldn't there be various splotches

of Cubs territory all over the country thanks to WGN?

And I’ve never met a Rangers fan. Ever.

Okay, "Wendy: hot and juicy redhead." Give this a try.

1. “Ranger’s Country” should be beige with small, light blue dots, mostly centered around Dallas Fort Worth—disappearing altogether either when the Rangers reach 20 below .500 or a month and a half before the first Cowboys preseason game, at which point the media forgets they exist.

2. “Twins Country” should extend over most of North-West Wisconsin, at least in my experience.

3. As much as we hate to say it, most of the unincorporated territories are peopled by fans of the big market clubs to a large extent - i.e. Yankees, Red Sox, Cubs- and probably some West Coasters as well.

4. And in general, each of the borders would be blurred, especially when the border is a hostile one—e.g. Cubs/Sox, Cubs/Cards

With Cubs legend Ron Santo...

Cool Map...

and very accurate when it comes to central Illinois (where I live). There litterally is a line you cross where the majority turns to Cardinals and it’s mapped about perfectly here.

However, how can the Cards have seemingly more land mass? Impossible!

We should consider invading them immediately.

Bull-a-CRAP

I live in Central Illinois as well, and what I like to refer to as the Banks-Musial Line looks nothing like that border.

That's Nike for ya.

I bleed blue... and red, but that's not my fault. I didn't get to choose that one.

Well, this map is wrong on so many levels.

For starters,

The oppressive regime that is Soxdom is far too large.

Met land is too small, and does not include parts of Northern New York.

Oakland (couldn’t do much with that) is just plain too large.

The Commonwealth of the Houston Astros is too small.

Cardinal nation should be taking serious bights out of Kansas, Nebraska, Kentucky, most of the South, and Oklahoma.

Last, but certainly not least, Cub Nation should include a good portion of Nebraska, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and all of Northern Indiana. With, a small noncontagious territory in part of Phoenix Arizona. in Illinois, the Banks-Musial line should descend from West to East almost like a staircase, eliminating that two Cardinal bulges into our territory.

Who painted this?
