What's crazy is that the Cincinnati Bengals are in the 15th largest market compared to the other NFL teams, bigger that Pittsburgh.
What they don't understand is that it's not the city, the fans or the market that is bad but the ownership that is bad. The Bengals, if owned by someone who does whatever they can to win championships would generate more fans for the team and more revenue for the league.
Moving this team would not do anything but alienate the fans of this team and lose revenue.
Make Mike Brown step down and get an owner that wants to win and the fans will come.
LA's attendance is proving that fans aren't stupid. They aren't going to get excited just to have a team of their own (especially when they can be moved at will), and they realize when a team is crap and will likely remain crap. The Chargers and Rams have a combined 1 championship in 92 total seasons since the merger.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
