AZB spent many years living in Santiago. While his historical mannerisms (particularly with the treatment of women) have frequently been called into question by many folks (including me), his facts about life in Santiago are reliable. However, to his credit he's mellowed out a lot lately.
That said, the same is true of Hillbilly (likely THE expert on Santiago on this forum), waytogo, Cobraboy and Bob Saunders (thouth they live in Jarabacoa, a nearby town), and others. If you seek the best information, I would check with all these folks as well.
And, actually, it's "Rangers lead the way."
