Harris Poll shows that Yankees are truly America's Team
For the sixth year in a row the Yankees ranked No. 1 in the 2008 Harris Poll of favorite baseball teams but the Mets dropped from seventh place to 10th.
The top-five teams in the poll were:
1. Yankees
2. Braves
3. Red Sox
4. Cubs
5. Dodgers
Bringing up the rear were the Rays, Angels and last, and in this case least among Americans, the Blue Jays. The poll did not survey fans residing in Canada.
One interesting tidbit in the poll showed that the Yankees are the favorite team of:
People who live in the East, Gen X (ages 32-43) and Democrats.

And if the Rays make the Playoffs, they will jump into the top 15. So goes the bandwagon merry-go-round. Still, the Angels at 29 is just wrong and defies all bandwagonisms.
