Message: [QUOTE="Ghost, post: 1076397, member: 581"] Soccer will only put franchises in cities where it will do well (which is fine, and very smart). The other sports have expanded quite a bit - which I would imagine waters down the numbers as they head into markets that are a bit less passionate historically (or have no history). If you pulled all the southern teams out of hockey, would that make hockey the number two sport statistically by attendance???? I used to think soccer would thrive here, grew up playing, love it - but it won't. Although every four years we will hear that it will. [/QUOTE]
