In retrospect, it makes sense that it'd be a city without MLB.

Even the winningest MLB teams pull the percentage down towards 60%.

Responses:

Yeah, just going strictly by percentages is flawed. And there should have been points off for not having full state of teams in a city. -- nm - Don Homer May 18, 11:23 5

- Oh I don't know. It makes sense if all it's measuring is how much a locale's teams wins. - musubi May 18, 11:26 2
  - Some sort of standard deviation applied by sport would have made it better. - TFox May 18, 11:27 1
    - Not sure how you'd implement that, or why it'd make it better though. - musubi May 18, 11:35
