As a United fan, we (well, a lot of us) hate them with a passion and wish they'd FRO back to where they came from. Saddled our club with $600 million of debt which we have to pay back through our season tickets. Results have been good so far but we feel like we're on the edge of a very high precipice and one slip....

Oh, and in answer to the OP, Man United. NQAT.

The Glazers,..seriously,. I just erased a 500 word rant. I don't like them. They make money, and if something of theirs doesn't make money, they will bust it up and sell it off. I feel bad for the MU ticket holders.

The Bucs are the best team that money won't buy. I trust the Glazers as far as I could throw Raymond James stadium.

In Boston sports fans favorite hates are:

baseball - Yankees, hands down, largely as a matter of tradition and habit, but fundamentally because Harry Frazee basically sold off the cream of the talent of the then dominant Boston Red Sox baseball team to found the Yankee dynasty.

football - probably the Jets, because of Mangini.

basketball - Lakers.

hockey - Les Habitants (Montreal Canadiens), again as a matter of long and honorable competitive tradition.

The Bruins had a hilarious ad during last year's playoffs about not dating in the same division. Ill try to find a link for it.

I hate them because they can buy any player in the g**d**n world and not break a sweat.

I hate them because they lord it over my team, the lowly Mets!!

I hate them because.... I love to hate them!!!! I wish and pray daily for their demise. I pray for a giant meteor to smite them for the philitines they are... Oh where oh where are the ancient plagues of old?

Who else is there?

ManU?

Italy?

Dallas Cowboys!!!!

Grrrrrr.... I'm ****ed.

"I hate them because they can buy any player in the g**d**n world and not break a sweat."


I use to like the Yankee's a loooong time ago worf in the Mel Stottlemyre/Roy White/Therman Munson days when they had little money and a assortment of guys that weren't all the best players but had TRUE CHARACTER and won on sheer determination and will to win. To them a division championship was a big thing.


The Yankees are now a bunch of high priced premi donna hookers willing to work for anyone with enough cash to buy their services.

Possibly the Collingwood "Magpies' in Aussie rules football
(unless you are a devoted Magpie fan)

Hockey, the Maple Laffs. It is hilarious listening to TSN, Toronto based, moaning and groaning about the Laffs as if there wasn't any other teams in the NHL.

That's an understatement for what they did to the Yankees.

My condolences, Worf. Another year suffering as the insufferables celebrate.

I wish MLB would take the World Series away from Fox Sports. Besides not really enjoying Joe Buck and Tim McCarvers play by play, I'm sooo tired of the constant Fox self promotion. This year they even managed to wrangle their way into the singing of the National Anthem by the "stars" of Glee the "new hit series" on Fox. What a joke.

I simply quit watching MLB after the Yankees beat my Padres with more than a little help from the umps, especially in that first game...I figure that if a power hitter is making over $3 million a year plus the endorsements he gets from playing in NYC, he doesn't need five strikes.

As long as big city teams like the Yankees can buy the best talent, Major League Baseball has no integrity or competitveness.

Other teams I deeply and truly hate:

1. The Denver Broncos

2. Arizona State (I grew up in Tucson, home of the University of Arizona).

3. UCLA and the Pac-10 officials who have propped them up(see above)

4. The San Antonio Spurs (Suns fan)

5. Any team with a quarterback named Manning

Not right now there isn't

Well, congratulation to Johnny Damon for winning another ring. The Red Sox should NEVER have let him go.
