Poll: What Is Your Least Favorite NFL Team?

Trainmaster : 2/9/2016 11:07 am
Not a sports site, but somewhat interesting as the long off season begins:



Patriots, Cowboys and Raiders are no surprise to me. Jet and Green Bay being so high is a surprise. Frankly, I'm surprised the Giants aren't among the top dozen, being from NY, Eli etc., but I'm glad regardless.

Who hates the Browns? Manziel? General incompetence?

I hate all the NFC East teams. Given I'm on the West Coast, I rarely run into Redskins or Eagles fans. Of course there are band wagon Cowboys fans everywhere.

Also, since the Cowboys training camp is about 30 miles from where I live and until very recently, no NFL team in the LA area, there are local Cowboys fans due to that.

I guess Dallas is #1 hated team for me. While I can't stand Brady and Kraft, once a Giant, always a Giant for me and Belichick. I wish he wasn't the coach of a Boston area team, but at least he's in the AFC. I don't like the Patriots, but the Cowboys, Eagles, Redskins, 49ers, Packers, Panthers (thanks to this year), Raiders and Ravens would be ahead of them for me.


the Panthers slice is small because they've mostly been irrelevant

But lately this group of Panthers, especially Josh "Tears of a Clown" Norman, is getting on my last nerve.

Always the Redskins for me. Always  
Frank in Silver Spring : 2/9/2016 11:21 am : link
Took an instant dislike to them and their fans while growing up in New York. Now for 20+ years in metro DC, the dislike has only intensified.

Eagles are a close second, however.
Eagles 1st and foremost.  
section125 : 2/9/2016 11:23 am : link
Then the Red Sox - (had to do it, less than two weeks to pitchers and catchers)

Dislike Seattle, where ever Jeff Fischer is and 49ers (mildly).

AFC is irrelevant.

Why are the Raiders hated? The 49ers and their band wagon

fans are the worst.
Eagles  
moze1021 : 2/9/2016 11:26 am : link
no doubt about it..

The Cowboys bother me a bit, but it's not even close to the Eagles.

The Redskins are cute.

On the flip side, am I the only non-Pats fan Tom Brady fan? I think the guy is awesome. Root for him every chance I get that he isn't facing a Manning.

RE: Why Are The Raiders Hated ...  
Trainmaster : 2/9/2016 11:30 am : link
I suspect it's the non-trivial amount of gang banger / thug fans.

I went to one Giant-Raiders game (Raiders home game in the LA Coliseum) in the 1980s. Never felt so unsafe at a game. Later that year, some Raider fans threw a guy in a Steelers jersey down a flight of concrete steps, giving him a skull fracture.

I'd suspect the fans are a big part of why the Raiders made the top ten.
Eagles by parsecs

Not really the team--despite the cheating scandals. I kind of like BB grouchiness.

Eagles may just beat out the Cowboys as least favorite, probably because the Giants have been their bitches lately. That and I went to school near Philadelphia. I haven't been able to generate a deep hatred for the Skins since the 70s.

Recently the Panthers have moved into #5

I used to detest the 49ers. I'm indifferent these days.

I've always been annoyed by the Dolphins. Not a hatred thing, but their uniforms and dumb Dolphin helmets annoy me.

Also, am I the only one who detests Aaron Rodgers? I never had anything against the Packers, but my hatred for Rodgers is steadily growing. He acts like a prick, his dickish demeanor is starting to remind me of Brady.

one of the 3 NFC East teams. I live amongst Redskins fans but they have been down for so long its hard to rank them first. Similar with the Eagles and their empty trophy case but the hate is still strong. So right now of those 3 its probably Cowboys for me. I hate the never ending love they get on NFLN and ESPN even when they suck and I despise Romo.

Outside the NFCE its Patriots hands down.
Eagles  
Steve in South Jersey : 2/9/2016 6:58 pm : link

Cowboys by far  
ChathamMark : 2/9/2016 7:02 pm : link
Then Eagles, Redskins, Patriots. Never really had a bad dislike of the Patriots until my company opened an office in Massachusetts and had to listen to crap about the Giants only winning the Super Bowl against the Patriots twice since they were lucky.
Far and away, the Eagles.  
Don in DC : 2/9/2016 7:10 pm : link
Fuck that team, that stadium, that franchise, those players, those fans, that city. I have never, and will never, hated a sports team the way I hate the Eagles.

It would be an exaggeration to say that I would root for ISIS against the Eagles... but not much of one.

A distant second is Dallas. After Dallas comes the Niners. Then some arrangement of the Vikings, Ravens and Rams.

Someone asked me once who I root for when the Eagles play Dallas. I said, "injuries."

You're calling people idiots because they hate the wrong teams?

It's simple man, I was taught that you kill each other when you play against each other but root for the division when eliminated, then root for the NFL vs the AFL which morphed into the NFC vs the AFC. I had to make an exception with Dallas when Jimmy Johnson got there because as Notre Dame fans we hate Miami more than Disco.

The Eagles and Redskins have never embarrassed us in the playoffs and Super Bowl like the 49ers and the Ravens.

Barring two one and done playoff appearances they've largely been irrelevant since Crystal Pepsi was on store shelves. The Giants have by and large had their number for quite some time now as well. I think that's why, DC area BBIers notwithstanding, you usually see the Skins ranked behind the Eagles and Cowboys when this topic comes up. Don't get me wrong, I hate the Skins. But it's more of a nuisance hate, the way you hate mosquitos or sitting in traffic. Do they irritate you and get on your nerves? Absolutely. But they rarely ruin your day.

To be honest, and I generally avoid blanket statements, I think the most annoying aspect of the Skins are their fans. In my experience they have more blind homers incapable of objectively looking at their team than the other division teams. Remember that group of tailgaters that called themselves the Dead Teee Crew? Worst group of fans ever. Ever. Regardless of the sport or team in question. Worst. Fans. Ever.

Dislike their teams (Raven/ Cowboys), other wise, I'd be ambivalent toward both teams.

I actually like Tom Brady (still think he's the Gold Standard in NFL QBs), but Bilichick and Ernie Adams running their "skunk works" cheating machine makes it easy to not like them.

I'm surprised at the Jets hate, but I guess all the pathetic bravado and noise gets tiring after a while.

It's going overboard to call someone an idiot over it, but the idea of rooting for the division once the Giants are eliminated from contention is completely foreign to me and makes very little sense. When the Giants are eliminated my focus immediately goes to hoping whoever is left standing crashes and burns.

I mean, really, were you hoping the Skins went on a Super Bowl run? You don't shudder at the thought of Snyder hoisting the Lombardy Trophy? God, I feel like I ahave to take a shower just for typing that...
