I’m never quite sure how much credence to give to the annual New England Sports Survey, which is conducted by Sudbury-based Channel Media & Market Research.
In its quest to gauge fans’ opinions and perspective on Boston teams, athletes, and media personalities, it sometimes comes up with some … well, let’s call them perplexing results.
And the questions themselves sometimes have errors, such as one this year that referred to Alex Cora as the general manager of the Red Sox. (Come to think of it, don’t you kind of wish he were?)
Then again, it did rate me, Christopher Gasper, and Dan Shaughnessy (tied with Greg Bedard) as the most favorite sportswriters this year, so as far as I’m concerned from now on, this thing is unassailable.
