For the second year in a row, here is the autism spreadsheet I've created ranking each city in North America on their ability to attract sports teams and winning players. Each City is given a PSPI rating by multiplying the number of teams the city has by the number of championships those teams earned in that city.
Special Rules:
>WHA Championships count for the former WHA teams. If the Nordiques ever come back they get theirs too.
>CFL and MLS teams only count for half a team. CFL and MLS Championships only count for half a championship
>Championships only count if they were earned in the city the team is playing in. The Cardinals NFL Championships don't count for Chicago or Phoenix
Bigger markets dominate the top 5, but once you get lower there are some outlines, like Montreal.

Here's last year's ratings
>>68747372
>>68747383
Where's Indy?
>>68747466
I forgot them kek
Gimmie a minute
>>68747547
Thanks famalam
>LA a good sports city
mc kill yourself my man lmfao
>>68747547
Noticed you forgot San diego, NOLA, and Charlotte/Carolina too.
>>68747372
>the asterisk on MLS
>>68747661
Add Devils to the New York area as well, and I think every team is on there then.
>>68747372
Do ABA titles count?
>>68747661
>the city of me
>>68747591
Purely objective measure of their ability to get championships. Shitty fans don't matter if you can offer money and the ability to live in LA
>>68747890
I go by Wikipedia, so if Wikipedia lists them under championships then they do.
>>68748066
Cause for the Nets, it says 0 but they have 2 ABA titles, Pacers have 3 as well.
>>68748101
It does indeed, I'll fix that as well.
Any other ABA teams I missed?
What's the asterisk mean here?
>>68748162
MLS and CFL count for half because while they are top leagues in their sports, they aren't top level sports
>>68748138
The rest are teams that don't exist anymore from what I'm aware. When it's all finished up can you post the updated list with the added cities and teams?
>>68748242
yea, working on it now. i'll fix last year's as well.
>>68748288
Thank ye. This is good work you're doing, it lets everyone know where they currently stand at.
>>68747372
This is some major league autism but I approve
>the shantytown of seattle
Alright here's 2014-2015 fixed
>>68748443
And here's 2015-2016
Biggest movers are St. Louis dropping 4 spots from losing the Rams, and Kansas City overtaking 4 teams thanks to the Royals WS win.
>>68747372
If you're going to count Minneapolis titles for LA in regards to the Lakers then you should count Philly titles for Bay Area in regards to the Warriors
>>68748479
>>68748443
Dammit I forgot the Devils.
Doesn't change the rankings tho so I just fixed it on my end, no new screenshots.
Greater NYC has a score of 530 with them.(9 Teams, 2 half-Teams, and 53 Championships)
>>68748616
You also forgot san diego :P, and the nets two titles.
>Atlanta
What a shot hole
Worst sports city in the country
>>68748614
Didn't mean to count them.
>>68748642
Nets have their titles, i just counted them in the whole while forgetting to put it next to the team
OK, is this good or did I mess anything else up?
>>68748759
Besides that I still didn't put the Nets titles next to the Nets :P (53 is the correct total for NYC tho)
>>68748759
Looks good to me, definitely keep this thing going on here.
Green bay/Milwaukee is ranked pretty good for such a small size of the population. Shame we're carried by only 1 team.
>>68748813
I plan on just posting it once a year at the end of the NBA/NHL Finals.
Maybe one day I'll do one for top level Euro divegrass teams, counting League Wins as x1.5, Champions League wins as x1, and Europa wins as x0.5
>Toronto is 7
>not 6
