Being a Supporter is a Full Time Job.

In a recent Virgin Money poll of 2,000 Premiership fans, the results showed that on average, fans think about the game once every twelve minutes.

Seven percent of the fans (properly labeled as "hard core") evidently think about the game once a minute.

The poll was done as part of Virgin's Football Fans Inflation Index, a study into the rising costs of attending matches.

Considering that Chicago Fire tickets for the MLS are running over $200 a match (and thats a Non-David Beckham Galaxy match), maybe Don Garber should conduct his own poll, of how costly MLS tickets are in relation to how many times US fans think about the MLS...or even know about the MLS. I am pretty confident that whatever number they could come up with doesn't warrant $200 dollars, especially considering that its just a bit more, even taking the tortious exchange rate into account, to attend a Manchester United match at Old Trafford. Somehow, paying $200 to see MLS players try their hardest at Toyota Park just doesn't seem right.
