America's Team

The Green Bay Packers may be tied for the worst record in football they're #1 in America's hearts:

Once again this year, the Green Bay Packers and the Dallas Cowboys remain no.1 and no. 2 respectively in the annual Harris Poll of the nation’s favorite professional football teams, among US adults who follow pro football. Support for the Cowboys remains the same, while the Packers support has slipped a bit from last year. Rounding out the top five teams are the New England Patriots and both Pennsylvania teams: the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Philadelphia Eagles.

Almost one-half of all Americans follow the NFL. 16% of them love the Packers. Roughly 23 million love the green and gold. I shouldn't be surprised. Just about anywhere you go you can find a bar devoted to the Packers every football Sunday.
