A region.
Sports teams are not ALWAYS named after cities (they mostly do, but not always.)
An example is Golden State Warriors, an NBA team named after California's nick name "Golden State." Nobody would think that Golden State is a city because a team has this name.
Also, you can ask your friend to find New England "city" on the map.

New england must be a region since old england is a region.
As for the sports team, I mean it's all fixed including the name.
As for the states - I say its New Hampshire, Vermont, Mass. Conn., and RI but not Maine. Maine sucks.

It is a region. It is also a team named for the region (since all the states are rather small there they kind of share).
