When they are bad, everyone disappears. When times are good, everyone shows back up. Look at attendance numbers and TV ratings.It’s almost as if some Sox fans want us to perpetually be a small fanbase, low attendance, small revenue stream franchise. If you’re not from the South Side (specifically south of Cermak) or S/SW suburbs, if you haven’t been a lifelong fan, you’re lesser of a fan. By this insular logic, we’d have the smallest market size by far in MLB.
