I either read this or it was on the Bengals Booth podcast last week where they said the Bengals free agency dealings were necessary to compete with the Reds for spectators next season. I support Celtic FC (soccer), who are based in Glasgow, Scotland. The city also has a rugby team called the 'Warriors'. However, I couldn't give a shit how much that team, playing that sport, spent on new players, I'm simply not interested in watching them over my team. So, is this down to sports fans in America taking an interest in some or all of their four big sports?
It is probably the bandwagon supporters that will jump on and support whatever is most successful!
