The West Coast is a great area to live in, it has two Disney worlds, great food and lots of people. Those are all great reasons to live in the West.

But we all know the real way to decide where to live—sports.

All the best sports teams are in the East, the West teams are just second-best to the East. You can see it in the stats and you can see it records, the East has better sports teams then the West.

In most sports the East has played better then the West.

Most 2008 championship-winning teams played in the East.

Here is a look some of the top sports in America, just look at how the East wins most of the battles.

 

NFL

In the NFL, the Super Bowl winning Pittsburgh Steelers and the best record-owning Tennessee Titans are both in the East.

For eight seasons in a row, the Super Bowl winner was from the east or center of America. The west is not looking too good.

 

MLB

In baseball the Philadelphia Phillies won the World Series. The Angels had the best record in the MLB, but the Phillies won it all.

Out of the 21 teams that don't play in the west there are only six teams that had losing records in the west in 2008.

Out of the nine teams that play in the west only three had a record over .500 in 2008.

 

NBA

In basketball, the Boston Celtics won the NBA Championship.

Yes, the Lakers are great and the West did win the All-Star game, but the three of the top four teams are in the East and not only did the Celtics win the Championship last year, they beat the Lakers to do it.

 

NHL

In Hockey it is almost even, but the East beat the West in a shootout in the All-Star game.

This is close and it may be the only Sport that the West is better then the East.

 

MLS

Not many people care about soccer but in soccer it is no question that the East is better then the West.

The Columbus Crew beat the New York Red Bulls in the MLS cup match. Both are Eastern teams.

 

It looks lopsided that the East is better then the West in most sports.

I am not saying the the West does not have any good teams, some of the best sports teams play in the West.

The Angels and Lakers are some of the top teams in the USA, but teams like the Red Sox, Celtics, Steelers, Giants and many others keep the East in front of the West. 

So West Coast guys, time to move to the East, lots of room up here in New York for you guys to make the right move.
