I am from Utah as most of you know and I love sports. I am not a fanatic but not a casual observer either and i know of the success of the sports teams in Boston the last couple of years. knowing this and being from Utah I see everything Boston. Boston hats, Boston stickers on the back of cars, and the Boston t-shirts, jerseys and everything else that can be sold so that a team from across the country can make a buck. I know what you are saying this always happens when a team starts to win (I did grow up in the Micheal Jordan years of basketball and the Brave era of baseball) people are going to jump on the band wagon and love whatever team they can see winning a title. but the last couple of years there has been this thing for Boston. The Patriots, the Celtics and the Red Sox are all over all everything even in the west even though the Bruins are never mentioned poor poor Bruins.
I mean we should have pride in sports that is one thing that never changes in this world is sports. But there is one thing that I need to say with all of the sports team and towns in the world we need to stay out of Boston. yes you might say New York and L. A. are big names too but the Yankees win and have won since the day they started and L. A. is close enough you could go watch an game and still be back to Utah in one weekend.
This is also a problem because it takes away from the Jazz we have a team in Utah that has been in the playoffs of most of the last two decades and people will still wear Celtics stuff rather than the Jazz. please support the Jazz they are the only team that we have and if we support them we might get bigger and better players and also maybe even a football or baseball team.
