Packers rank high in fan satisfaction; Bucks near bottom

Talk about it

The Green Bay Packers have the fourth-highest fan satisfaction of all 122 pro football, baseball, basketball, and hockey teams.

That’s according to ESPN-The Magazine, which interviewed 80,000 fans for its sixth annual “Ultimate Standings.”

The Packers rose 19 places from a year ago.

They scored highest in the “Bang for the Buck” category – the number of wins over the last three years compared to revenues from fans.

Green Bay also got high marks for coaching, as Mike McCarthy took a 4-12 team to within one game of the Super Bowl in just two seasons.

Meanwhile, the Milwaukee Brewers ranked a solid 13th, up three spots from a year ago.

Manager Ned Yost and his staff got the highest fan approval, followed by the Brewers’ winning potential.

The Milwaukee Bucks dropped 15 places in the Ultimate Standings to 109th – 14th from the bottom.

Fans stewed about the lack of a winning season since 2003 and they expected another inexperienced coach to replace Larry Krystkowiak, but actually, the Bucks hired NBA veteran Scott Skiles this week.
