That might describe Iowa and their Hawkeyes obsession as there really isn't another team in the state. Wisconsin has the Bucks, Brewers, Badgers and Packers .Happening cities like Milwaukee and Madison. Vacation spots like Door County. The people there just love sports. But I'm just old enough to remember pre-Favre and I can say that the excitement around the Packers was minimal. People went to Lambeau for the experience and history, not because of the current team. After Favre they've had a HOF QB for 26 straight years now. Dudes who got Favre jerseys at 10 years old now have kids in Rodgers jerseys. Generations of plexcited fans with SB hopes every year .That to me is the difference. Bengals don't have that hope usually. And when you do, you're let down drastically. Since Favre showed up in GB, this franchise hasn't even won a playoff game. 

Well I don't know about Bucks or Badgers, but I'm pretty sure the Brewers are not playing baseball during most of the football season... Haven't been to Milwaulkee, but I have been to Madison last year. Like I said, not much to do up there. I suspect not too many vacation in Wisconsin in the winter...
