And to prove that point, below is a 2014 map (I could not find a more recent one) that shows how popular teams are. If you want to see the underlying populations, or compare the popularity of two teams head to head, click on the link below the image. For example, comparing the Bengals to the Bills shows the Bills have 1.02M vs just 847K for the Bengals. So, yeah, in stark analytical terms, who does really care about the Bengals? BTW, below that is a map of the most hated teams. Guess who wins that contest? :)

In general, I think NY fans dislike the Cowboys more than the Pats. But in 2014, I can see how it could have been the Pats. Interesting that people hate the Yankees but not the Giants, which implies it's not a hate New Yorkers thing.
