What sort of a monster hates the Jags or Texans?  
Deej : 9/18/2017 12:00 pm : link
If you have the capacity to hate the Jags, you either (1) are a Jags fan, or (2) have deep anger issues.
So when they call Dallas America's team

Not sure if I can buy

I don't hate the Pats @ all.

Some of it is yankee/redsox crossover, some of it is exposure to the fan base.

I was always indifferent to the patriots until I lived in boston and dealt with the fan base. Completely insufferable, and this was nine years ago.

Yeah we own them, but their fans are the worst.
I love the Pats

Esp when we meet in the Supe
Still a shame that Landon Collings dropped the easy

pick last time we played the Pats in a regular season game, but that will make Pats overconfident when we meet in the Super Bowl this year.

Don't care much for polls or popularity

I'd be a die-hard Giants fan til the day I die even if they were the least popular team in America. Being popular means nothing to me. It probably gets skewed from luke-warm football fans who hang their hats on front runners and most hyped teams.

As for me and my house, we the serve the Lord (and BLEED GIANTS BLUE regardless of what others from around the country think of them!)

They are "Americas Team" and this is why.

When you put the most hated with the most loved you get Dallas at 50%, the highest of any team.

When Dallas plays a game 50% of the audience has a vested interest in the result.

This is just one of many indicators that Dallas is "Americas Team" and 2nd place is not even close.
Of the top 10 most loved  
NoPeanutz : 9/18/2017 2:13 pm : link
nine have been competitive during the last 10 years. The other was just born on third base.

Is that why you hopped on their pathetic bandwagon? They were popular? Congratulations on not having the balls to pick an "unpopular" team. Dallas is at the top of the list of hated because of their fanbase.make no mistake about it. The most annoying and least knowledgeable fanbase in all of sports. And they never shut up. Nobody on the planet has an ounce of respect for any Cowboys fan outside of Texas. Not because you can't root for a team outside of your own state. You absolutely can and many people do. It's the REASONS that people choose the Cowboys as their supposed favorite team. And NY/NJ Dallas fans are the absolute worst. You just want to throat punch every single one of the clueless nitwits.

They are not "America's Team". That is a marketing myth. It makes it easy to see who falls for marketing hype and who doesn't.

America doesn't have a "team", and if you argue otherwise, you're one of those who fell for some stupid marketing hype. I guess you can pat yourself on the back for that.
Eagles don't show up in the top/bottom rankings ...  
baadbill : 9/18/2017 3:06 pm : link
... and while I consider them the Giants #1 rival, I don't hate them the way I hate Dallas (the only other sports organizations I literally "hate" are the Flyers and Canadiens ... I'd actually be happy if all 3 were banned from the leagues).

Congrats.

it's always the same with dallas fans

they hang on to that little factoid like it's their lifeline. They all say it as if it's some badge of honor.

No one really cares. I'm a Yankees fan and the last thing I pride myself on with them is their immense popularity. If anything it's kind of annoying to me. What I love about the Yankees is their tradition and image. They aren't perfect but they just conduct themselves in a manner that other teams should strive for. Same with the Giants.

Dallas is a fucking toilet.
I mean I find BB and TB kind of annoying  
Knee of Theismann : 9/18/2017 5:16 pm : link
But it has nothing to do with my Giants fandom, so this is kind of surprising. Overall I'm pretty much indifferent to the Pats and mostly just feel joy because it reminds me of our 2 super bowl wins over the 5X champs.
