They could get that Blue Jay treatment
Nah...Theyll get alot of of publicity in the city but the Raptors arent the Jays,they'll never have that country wide support like the Jays had last fall...
Raptors dont have that kind of juice outside the GTA,big part is the perception its a black sport with hip hop affiliations and Canada outside the GTA is mostly lilly white and corny.
The other big part is the history of franchise is terrible while the Jays were like the Spurs in the 80s and then won 2 WS in the earkly 90s..They have a great history with fans across the country...
Raptors would need a decade of 50 win seasons to get that kind of fan support across the nation...As of right now theyre a regional phenom...
The ratings indicate that...
