I always have found it fascinating when people hate a particular team and the team that comes up the most would be the Yankees. I personally, like the Yankees so and like the way they go about things. however i know there are hundreds of thousands of people that would strongly disagree.

So I ask the Yankee haters, why? What about the Yankees makes you hate/dislike them? Im not here to try to convince you otherwise, im simply curious.

Personally, i hate the Cubs. I have nothing against the actual team, its the fans that annoy the shit out of me. their constant "this is going to be the year" only to change it to the "poor us" a couple months in and to blame everything on the damn curse. coupled with their desire to kill anyone who says that the Cubs suck (even though they do) makes me hope they can go another 100yrs before they win the WS.

anyway. so why hate the yankees? or i guess any team really.

Why do you hate particular sports teams?

Baseball
Red Sox - Largest percentage of bandwagon fans. Started the annoying trend of attaching "nation" to their fan base.
Braves - the chop is retarded

College Football
Ohio State - Stupidest most biased fans there are.
Michigan - USC and the SEC are better.
Notre Dame - Ew. That is all.
Syracuse - Always overrated.

NFL
Giants - Ugliest fans. To many people in this city root for them despite them being further away.
Jets - Lucky, second rate team in a second rate state.
Pats - Lucky, cheap, dirty.
Steelers - No their fans don't travel well, there are just a lot of bandwagon fans in every city.
Cowboys - Not America's team. Everyone is sick of them, and Romo looks like his parents are related.
Eagles - Syracuse needs to stop covering them. Choke artists galore.
Dolphins - Ugly ass uniforms.
Jaguars - Pathetic fan base.
Chargers - Pathetic fan base.
Tennessee - Stole a city's team, home run throw forward.
Baltimore - stole a city's team.

i hate ohio state. fuck off, OSU.
notre dame. rudy sucked.
michigan state. the school is awesome, but fuck off with your sports teams.
the white sox. frank thomas sucked. aj pierzynski sucks. i hate you fucks.
the yankees. one time i saw a guy with a yankee shirt that had 26 world series rings, then 5 for the red sox. then it said "count the rings." oh, and while at a tigers - yankees game in detroit, the yankee fans tried to get a 1918 chant going in 2004. good one, assholes. YOU ARE IN DETROIT!
i pretty much hate all new york city teams, because fans feel entitled to remind you that they are the best.
the red sox. their fans are as obnoxious as yankee fans, but they always play the little brother card. at least the yankees have success to go with their gloating. ill give them that. they win. no, red sox fans are just as obnoxious, telling me why the yankees suck. their fans, too, try to get "yankees suck" chants going at tiger games. also, i enjoyed calling a red sox fan out at a tigers game in 05, while a sox fan was laminating on how much the tigers sucked and the stadium sucked. i let him know the price tag on his brand new red sox jersey was hanging off the sleeve, and asked where i could get one. that shut him up.
san fransico giants. hes long gone, but i fucking hate barry bonds.
the atlanta braves. hes even longer gone, but fuck off hank aaron. not everything is race related.

Lol there I go posting shit in the wrong thread again.

Habs...the fans are pompous and rude and can fuck off
Leafs...while entertaining, the fans are drunk, and rude, often to little kids.
Flyers...any fanbase that cheers when someone is injured and boos when he's getting up is straight fucked.

I could keep going, but I mainly hate teams for their fans. I like to jump on the Yankees hate bandwagon, but I really have no opinion either way. I will agree with Mike and Alex, though, about bandwagon Red Sox fans - they outnumber real fans by a seemingly 5-to-1 margin.

Yankees; Spend more on a couple players than many teams spend on their entire teams. Uneven playing field, so they are unlikeable to me. There are other teams that have caught up though; or at least have seperated themselves from the "have - nots."

If you're a KC, Milwaukee, Cleveland, Oakland, and a couple others, you're not going to win. Cleveland used to spend, but no longer do. When they develop good young players, they can only keep them for a few seasons.

These clubs could use a Russian Oil Baron or two to buy them, and spend a shit load of money if they are ever to succeed.

Well in the NFL I hate these teams:
Miami: come one, if you're a Bills fan you're obligated to hate them.
Patriots: Mostly for the up Tom Brady's ass everyone is and I hate it.
Cowboys: anybody but Dallas, America's team my ass.

That's pretty much it, almost every other team I like them some days and don't like them others, depending who they are playing, and I watch every game I can in football, even when the Bills aren't playing.

NHL:
Toronto: Hahaha Rivalry
Ottawa: Rivalry also
Philly: Their fans and such
Montreal: come on, french bastards
Boston: Any Boston team sucks to me
Pittsburgh: Sidney Crosby and the attention he gets, just like the up his ass too much.

CV, to be honest that is a terrible reason to hate a team because they took a franchise from another city, you do realize The Cleveland Browns were once again reincarnated two years after Baltimore got another Team.

Every football team which was moved because of an owner and such has got it back basically, Houston got theirs back, Baltimore, and Cleveland all did also.

_________________

I forgot about one NHL team I can not stand is Washington and why I hate them the 1 dimensional euros on that team and I can't stand OV, the guy never hit anyone face to face.

And another reason I hated Rimouski was Crosby, if anyone can imagine he was more of a baby at 17 then he is now, he actually has toned in down a lot since he has been in the NHL. At 17 if things were not going his way he'd slam his stick on the ice every time.

Gosh, so much hatred. Can I hear a Kumbaya?

I focus my intense eternal hatred on just a few: Dolphins, Cowboys, Flyers, Fightin' Irish

at 24, i would still break my goalstick over the crossbar. you dont think anyone else ever got mad and slammed his stick on the ground? or complained? crosby may whine, but everyone makes it out like hes the only one.

and the yankees never develop players? jeter? rivera? pettite? cano? bernie williams? the yankees buy talent, thats a given. they also have one of the best developmental farm systems in the bigs. thats a fact. and the yankees never bought a series. the wins from 96-2000 were legit. after that is when big stein went on a frenzie. i hate the yankees too, but i wont discredit them for being a GREAT organization.
