Anyone within the Rangers geographic "area" will tell you in a heartbeat that it's nice the Rangers are in the Series but how are the Cowboys, Loghorns, Aggies, etc. doing? Football was, is and always will be king in Texas and the Rangers will always be the stepchildren.
The Rangers do a horrible job of promoting themselves, even the Mavs do a better job.
I have always pulled for the American League so I hope the Rangers win but the Cardinals because of their roots are much, much more popular in Arkansas. All those native Arkansans like Dizzy and Paul Dean through Lou Brock, etc. playing for the Redbirds and the fact St. Louis was the only area team and had their AAA team in Little Rock, made this State a Cardinal haven although in NW Arkansas the Royals are trying to chip away with a very successful AA team.
