So I'm a Cubs fan.But I swear I'm not here to troll. ^^

Anyway, I have a question for all of you. I always wondered where a new franchise builds its fanbase from.

Did most of you just transfer over from being fans of the Expos to being fans of the Nats? Are some of you misplaced and disgruntled former Orioles fans?

How about baseball newcomers? Did having a alternative baseball team in the DC area make some of you former non-baseball fans into Nationals fans?

This has always made me curious and I really would like to know. Thanks for reading and replying and it's nice to meet ya'll.
