    I somewhat pay attention to the Bundesliga since FS1 airs some of their games. If I recall, RB Leipzig is cheating the hell out of the German system, which requires community ownership of the team. Most Germans that aren't Leipzig fans despise them for not running the club "the German way." There's also some old East vs West German sentiment mixed in there too, with them being one of two Bundesliga teams from what was East Germany.

    It would be nice for there to be some more threats to Bayern's supremacy in that league, so I welcome their arrival.

    ETA: here's an article that explains it much better than me:
