Espn State by State Polls

This is an incredibly interesting tool that gives more detail to the question.

For example, when questioned about who was going to win the Seahawks/Panthers game, you could see the Northwest favoring Seattle, and the East Coast favoring Carolina. Those votes essentially cancel each other out, and the results for a neutral state are usually the same as the overall country.

The poll that sparked my interest in it today was what sports person are you most sick of hearing about?
Artest, TO, Bonds, Bode, or Theo?

TO ran away with the votes with 45% (Artest 24%) but what was interesting was that in every state across the country and even international votes, TO was the winner. I figured that at least Artest could carry his own state of Indiana, where it was closer, but not enough. TO reigns supreme in levels of annoyance.

  1. How about a link? And while you're at it, could you put a link to pricegrabber on that post too? I'm lazy.
