    I don't see any team worth hating in this era.

    You could legitimately hate the "Bad Boys" Pistons because they played right on the bleeding edge between clean and dirty and the Lakers and Celtics were always hate-able because of their history. But now all of the players get along and there's hardly any more beefing or real rivalries, so I can't really work myself up to care enough if the players won't.

    I hate some fans of teams but the only team I always want to see lose is The Lakers.

    Houston is working its way up from dislike towards hate (but not there yet). But Howard and harden bug the fuck out of me.

    Ain't that the truth. I wonder if it has anything to do with the whole social media era and people can post thoughts hiding behind an electronic devise.

    That's always how it has been for me. It comes down to who you know. As I grew up my friends all were Raiders and Cowboys fans. In 1966 my sister moved to Pittsburgh, sent me a Steeler jersey, and the rest was history.

    In baseball my friends were Dodger and Yankee fans, so I became a Giants fan waiting 50 years for them to win their first series. Over the years I hated the teams who I knew the most fans from. Lets face it all fans are annoying if they are winning. Lakers, Celtics, Bulls.......if they win, you end up hating them. The one exception are Washington Huskie fans. I usually don't hate fans of teams who suck for so long, but I will always hate them. Too many arrogant pricks for me to forget. Same with my time in Utah. I will always despise the Jazz and BYU, even if I like their players.

    One my good friends lives in MPLS. He's tellin' me that they should just send the team to Seattle because nobody but Hockey players want to play in MIN.

    hahaha.

    I do gotta say though, I was visiting MPLS over July 4th for his wedding. 1. Nobody works in that city past noon (every day during the week the streets were just filled w/people partying!) and 2. its like a clone of a pinch of Seattle mixed w/lots of Portland.

    If you aren't leaving flecks of foam on the screen, you ain't doing it right!
