Welcome To New England Nation

It seems like all of a sudden the entire world of sports revolves around New England. Cartoon by Drew Litton, Rocky Mountain News
According to Drew Litton of the Rocky Mountain News, the sports world nowadays revolves around New England. Indeed, even though we are living in Denver, it's fairly satisfying to be a New England fan in this region. Because of the success of both franchises in recent years, both the Red Sox and the Patriots have strong national followings, so it's been easy to find fellow fans in our area, although "Spygate" did somewhat hurt the Pats image. Every Sunday, we join about 20 other Pats fans at the Blake Street Tavern in lower downtown Denver ("LoDo") to watch the Pats play. We're pretty vocal, so we probably sound pretty obnoxious to fans of other teams!
