MP109? Wolves now 118th in fan satisfaction rankings
Posted on April 24th, 2008 – 4:18 PMBy Michael Rand
A little over a year ago, ESPN released its 2007 “Fan Satisfaction Rankings,” listing the Timberwolves 109th in the overall experience among teams in the four major pro sports leagues and spawning the McHale’s Project 109 (MP109 for short) nickname around these parts for the rest of the season. Well, those were the good old days. The Woofies didn’t have far to fall, but they still managed to tumble to 118th in the 2008 version of the rankings. As Fasolamatt notes, only fans of the Falcons, Lions, Maple Leafs and — drumroll please for last place — the Knicks are worse off. The Vikings “improved” to 110th. That was before Jared Allen, though. All bets are off for 2009. The Wild is the top local squad, checking in at No. 31 (about where they were last year), while the Twins fell from 14th to 39th. Your thoughts?
FYI: Not that you wouldn’t, but be sure to check back here tomorrow. It’s going to be festive. Trust us.
