    I actually don't mind the Lakers. I hate the twolves, spurs (that's solely on aldridges shoulders, used to love them with Robinson, Duncan, Rodman, Elliot etc.), sounders, Seahawks, and the majority of ducks fans (the bandwagoners, if you don't call beavers little bro, we can talk about the ducks all you want as I've followed them since I was a kid)

    Was a fun team to watch, it seems like NCAA doesn't have the magic it once did. Just dominated by one and done super teams and the occasional veteran group.

    Saw him playing in the D league a while ago. He's still Mighty Mouse. Jacking up 3's from downtown.

    God I hate the Ducks! At least we smoked them in our first game. We have been disappointing so far, but I still have hope we can turn it around.

    I've never hated the Beavs, but it just hasn't really been a rivalry for a long time. I can't remember the last time they beat the Duck football team. The Simonton era? I imagine if the Beavs started consistently beating Oregon, or making it interesting, the rivalry would heat up again and the smug attitude would diminish, or at least be replaced by a pure hatred. That's how it's supposed to be. The kind of hatred that existed between the Huskies and Duck fans. It's not supposed to be a smug, condescending attitude, which is what it currently is.

    I live in Lane County and what puts me off about the Ducks is mostly the rabid fans...I was watching a Ducks game at a party once and people got so angry over something like an offside call that went against them, although the score was like 61 - 7 at the time....really poor sportsmanship...tried to talk about the Beavers baseball coach Casey and it was like an angry mob turning on me....really some crazy fans...I support all Oregon sports franchises across the board, but the Ducks fans are the worst snobs I've hung around

    Personally, I never understood the Kent hate.

    I liked Ernie...although I questioned him playing his son Jordan big minutes...Jordan Kent was an incredible track star, but not much of a basketball player.

    Oregon's top 5 in the country in RPI. They're still underrated nationally, just like every other team in the Pac-12 except for Arizona (they're overrated).

    The smugness reminds me of Seahawks fans. Which is very likely because there are a lot of hawks and ducks fans.

    I'm not a huge fan of huskies either. Went to the game in Seattle a year or so ago against the Beavs. wore an orange hoody under my jacket and some drunk dude got up close to me yelling "it's not hunting season boy"

    Okkkkkkkkkkk

    I've been to my fair share of OSU football games over the years and I can say, without reservation that Duck fans are the worst. They've forgotten the days when they were mediocre or worse. A bunch of boorish poor sports. Even the females. Husky fans are a very close second. Surprisingly enough, I've found the USC fans to be the classiest.

    Smug comes from very little competition. It vanishes when someone is humbled. Duck fans haven't been humbled by the Beavs or Huskies in a long time.

    Yep. And the bandwagon ducks fans will go away.

    My buddy is a niners fan. He said he was at work and a guy was talking about the Seahawks after they lost to carolina. Said he. Was never a football fan until about four years ago. Said he has learned in that four Years not to get so worked up about it so he was gonna take a couple years of fandom off.

    How convenient

    Beavs ruled baseball for a long stretch...humbled the Ducks baseball program regularly..Ducks are finally having some baseball success but the Beavers were the best in the nation not so long ago

    Very true. The difference is usc acts like they've been there before. And they are tired of little bitches (in their eyes) pounding their chests and acting like they are champions when they haven't even won anything yet

    And the ducks were so jelly of that national exposure, they decided it was time to start a baseball team themselves
