As far as who has a big market, I would think the Chiefs and Broncos both have huge markets. Chiefs share the entire Midwest with the Bears, Colts, and maybe the Rams. Rams are super new to the Midwest and the Colts are relatively new. Bears are the most popular in that region, but Chiefs are a close second. A lot of hicks don't want to be associated with a Chicago team, so the team they root for is the Chiefs. Broncos have the entire mountain time zone (not counting Arizona).
The Chargers - we're surrounded by a bunch of trailers in the desert, an ocean, the border and L.A., which had its own teams. Mexico, you would think, would support the Chargers, but it's a Cowboys/Raiders/Steelers country (well, really, it's a soccer country - but those who do like real American football aren't usually Chargers fans.)Last edited by thelightningwill; 10-24-2014, 07:03 AM.

Not exactly sure what that means other than I was probably wrong about KC and even Denver having a large media market.
Just don't think market size is something the game riggers care about. Don't know why, but the Donkeys have had preferential treatment since the late 90s. I know the owner, Pat Bowlen, had a lot of involvement in the business of the league back in the day.
