Top 10 teams I love to hate on.
Jul 09, 2008 | 1:12PM | report this

Being a Boston sports fan there isn't all that much to complain about these days. However, I'm going to do my best to do so anyways. Hopefully in doing so I can insult and anger every blogger on this website. So without any further ado here is my list.

 

10. The Tampa Bay Rays

Now before this year I had nothing against the Rays, they were the loveable losers who got in a couple of fights per year with the Sox, but now they are in first place. Now this doesn't bother me that much, but all the writers are acting like they called it. The problem is they have been picking first in the draft virtually for 10 years now. So everyone knew eventually the talent would have to prevail. It's okay though in 3 years these young stars like Longoria will have new $100,000,000 contracts with the Soxs and Yanks and all will be right with the world.

9. The Portland Trail Blazers

A surprise pick to some, but I am basically jealous because of the absurd luck that has hit this team. They win the NBA draft lottery against incredible odds to secure the best center prospect this decade, and Darius Miles experiences a career ending injury, ridding them of his rediculous contract. Also, Kevin Pritchard is milking the former Celtics Ainge, Mchale, and Bird in trades virtually every year. Lets review Bassy Telfair for 7th pick=Randy Foye, Randy Foye+ Cash+ Brandon Roy, Kareem Rush+ Jarrett Jack=Jerryd Bayless. That is insanity I think the NBA should institute a new rule banning teams from making more than one trade per year with former Celtics. Grizzly fans I would watch yourselves Pritchard might be able to milk Chris Wallace with a Mayo and #### for Diogu and Frye trade.

A lottery pick gone and all I got was this lousy Through the Fire DVD.

8. San Diego Chargers

Now the Chargers used to be my second favorite team up until a few years ago. They are the next dynasty in the NFL and are likely to throw the Pats from their perch atop the AFC. The real reason for all the animosity is Ladanian Tomlinson whose jersey I own, but haven't worn for a number of years. Two years ago he cried and claimed disrespect because the Pats celebrated their victory by mocking Sean Merriman, BIG DEAL!! but LT made an issue of it, and was a sore loser a la Bill Belicheck. What any real player would have done is waited until the next year and get revenge then, but Tomlinson didn't and instead sulked on the sideline saying his knee hurt while teamate Phillip Rivers played his heart out. I can't see myself respecting a team with Tomlinson on it, and  that is why they rank at number 8.

7. Montreal Canadiens

Being 100% French Canadien with relatives in Quebec and New Brunswick this seems somewhat sacreligious, but let me tell you nothing is as satisfying as making fun of fans who are so passionate and drink so heavily after the Canadiens are eliminated. While I am just a part time hockey fan, I would have given anything to see the Bruins eliminate the Habs.

6.  New York Giants

Now this doesn't entirely stem from me being bitter about the Pats loss. No it is more that the fans their are so fickle. Before the Superbowl the fans were calling for Eli and Coughlin's jobs, but now 1 victory later they are ready to enshrine them into the hall of fame. I'm just wondering how many games it will take for them to turn on the Giants again. My prediction is by Week 2.

5. USC Trojans

Now my BC Eagles never face them, and likely won't for quite some time, but here is my problem, Why do they need 6 Five-Star recruits at every position? The last time i checked only one player starts at each position, so why do recruits risk probable future NFL careers by going to a school where their is a good chance that they will never see the field? Also, Pete Carrol was at the helm of the Pats during their decline from Superbowl contender to an average team. Finally, what kind of name is the Trojans? Who would name their team after a ancient city of which nobody is certain even existed, whose people got fooled by a gigantic wooden horse? I'm just saying.

4. New York Jets

Is it the fact that they are the Pats longtime rivals? Nope. Or how bout the fact that Mangina is a snitch? Not that either. It's that stupid J-E-T-S JETS! JETS! JETS! chant. We get it Jets fans you can spell simple words, we are proud of you.

Fireman Ed can spell and he is excited.

3. Los Angeles Lakers

Since I was born after the Celtics Lakers heyday I am new to this rivalry, but after the finals I can proudly say I know why it exists. Lakers fans are idiots it is as simple as that. The fact is on these blogs as most of you can attest to, Lakers fans say so many rediculous things that I can't even tell if its a true LA fan or somebody just parodying them. Over the last week I have seen Lakers fans predicting a threepeat before they have even won one, another lakers fan convinced that the Lakers would have won the NBA finals if not for the Refs, and finally somebody saying KOBE!!! is underated despite being widely considered the best player in the game. Hopefully the Trail Blazers and Celtics can put them in their place over the next 5 years or so, because I can't imagine listening to them after they win an NBA championship. You know what scratch the Blazers off the list the world needs them.

2. New York Yankees

This is an obvious choice being that I'm the type of fan that I am. Besides for their egomanical owners they can sucessfully manipulate the MLB to get whatever they want. When The Sox try to trade for A-Rod MLB blocks it, but the Yankees offer a similar package and they allow it. They spend 60 mil per year more than any other team. I know the Sox are the same way, but to manipulate a quote by Lewis Black "The Yankees are such ####s that they make the Red Sox look like ####s in comparison." (Lewis Black, The White Album)

 Sorry for the obscure Monica Lewinsy reference but it had to be done.

1. Indianapolis Colts

Finally, the mecca of them all the Colts. Now besides the fact that the Pats have owned the Colts in the TB vs. PM era, I take so much joy in watching the Colts lose. Tony Dungy may be a good guy and a good christian, but the media makes him out to look like Jesus re-incarnated, and since apparently Pats-Colts matchups have turned into good vs evil it is always fun to root for the bad guys. Most of all though is Peyton Manning. While he is a good guy, and his commercials are funny, the #2 reason why I watch football is to see those rare wonderful Manning face sightings.

 Now this is why I watch football

 O yeah at least Randy didn't moon a female athletic trainer like Peyon Manning. (Why did I bring that up? Because I'm Petty)

Honorable Mention

The Toronto Blue Jays

Every year their fans say this is they year, and every year they are the proverbial puching bag.

 

So that's my list. I welcome your comments on the teams you love to hate on.
