ESPN the Geography

To celebrate their 25th anniversary, ESPN posted a breakdown of the last 25 years per city/region. Before clicking on the link, I was wondering what they would do with Charlotte and Raleigh. These are two very distinct and distant (170 miles / < 3 hours) areas, but it would help each other's profile by combining the two. ESPN's decision was to combine, however, the "winner"of this contest was San Francisco with Oakland placing below Char-leigh and San Jose also listed separately. That's right, ESPN considers San Francisco / Oakland / San Jose three separate markets while they are only separated by some water while cities over 150 miles apart are in the same area. That is just insane! Other corrections should be the combining of Los Angeles and Anaheim, Washington and Baltimore, and New Jersey and New York.

If 150 miles is considered the same area, then Hartford / Boston, Sacramento / San Francisco Area, Orlando / Jacksonville (or Orlando / Tampa), Cincinnati / Indianapolis, Philadelphia / Baltimore, Los Angeles Area / San Diego, etc. should all be combined.
