Oh yeah. Him too. My 9'ers are surging, My Texans have clinched for the 1st time in their history, and all I get on ESPN is "The Streak". The only NFL streak I hear about on ESPN is 6 straight Tebow wins. I hear more about Denver than Green Bay. Yeah NOW. But even with that you got the "whats the bigger story" polls that they shill out.

As for the Detroit "Thugs" comments. All good teams usually have one "bad Boy". Proven fact. Name me a pro team that won a championship and I guarantee you they had a guy that people called a "thug" or labeled dirty. That doesn't excuse the Lions. And it's not just Suh either. They lead the NFL in personal fouls, by a pretty healthy margin. And this thuggery has cost them games. Hell, their head coach nearly got into a fight and one of their players f***ing pushed a referee. The Lions were seen as a sort of underdog that was easy to get behind in the beginning of the season. They turned the great feel-good story of the 2011 Season and instead became the season's heels. Which is pretty damn impressive when everyone thought that'd be the Philadelphia "Dream Team" Eagles.

Arsenal. Manchester United but mainly because of their supporters. Coming from down south, there's a fair few of them who just haven't got a clue. They've won so often that when they draw at home to Everton they consider it the worst thing that's ever happened and consider slitting their wrists. I don't mind Man City's gloating at the minute because they've had to put up with it from Man U fans for years so they're only getting their own back. I don't really turn my nose up at them having 'bought' success, doesn't every great team do that nowadays? Whether it comes from a oil rich sheik, Sky or replica shirt sales in the far East, it's all money. I think a reason why I don't dislike City that much is I don't know any Man City fans. At all. The neutral young fans haven't yet been converted to Man City fans yet here so thats one reason why I don't hate them that much yet. Whereas Surrey is swarming with United fans and a few glory Liverpool fans left over from the 80's. I have nobody to take the piss out of when it comes to City.

As a guy from Boston, I should say the Yankees or the Jets, but they often do respectable things. The top 3 in no real order:
1. Steelers: They act like they're America's sweethearts but they play dirty, do tons of dumb stuff off the field and (literally) rape women. This goes for The Lakers too 2. Colts: I hate you and your QB, but I can respect his skills. That said, one player doesn't make a team, don't be such a joke. 3. Chargers: There has never been a team that talked so much and won so little

Boston Celtics: I'm a Lakers fan and the 2008 Finals makes me loathe them even more (the 2010 one will NOT change that as the Lakers should have DESTROY them in Game 7)
New England Patriots: See the tuck rule and f*** Brady
San Diego Chargers: Every year they are labeled as (one of) the most talented team in football but can't do **** (which make me laugh)
Denver Broncos: I just hate this team as I'm a Raiders fan. I just wish for Tebow a good future, but as long as he's in that uniform, f*** him.
Montreal Canadiens: They are run by a bunch of morons + can't stand 85% of the fanbase.

Dallas Cowboys/NY Giants - I'm an Eagles fan so this one should be pretty basic. I love watching these teams do miserable, especially when Eli going vintage or Romo finds a whole new way to f*** his team over.
NE Patriots - Because, seriously, f*** Tom Brady. Not only did he attend the University of Michigan but he beat the Eagles in the Super Bowl. I loathe him so, so much.
Michigan Wolverines - Though it has cool in recent years due to Ohio State's dominance over them, this was a rivalry I was born in to. Even more importantly, I live in Michigan and this is a rivalry that I was contend with on a daily basis.

Baltimore Ravens: Everytime they lose, it's always "The Refs" or "The other team played dirty". They can't accept the fact that they are overrated as hell every single year and aren't as good as they think they are. Boston Red Sox: They still after all this time think they're the underdog, even though they've won 2 championships in the past decade. Yeah, sure. Yankees: Money can buy you talent, but it can also buy you a one way ticket home after the first round. Eagles: Their fans are so obnoxious and so douchy that they cheer when players they don't like get hurt. Such class. Phillies: Fans as well. Dallas Mavericks: They think they're some sort of champion of small town teams, when they have the richest owner. Not only that, their owner also screwed over a few small teams to get his way for Lamar Odom. TEAM OF THE PEOPLE EVERYONE!! Boston Celtics: The NBA's version of Shady Acres still doesn't get that their time has past and they're no longer the best or even the second best team in the east. That belongs to the Heat and the Bulls, respectively. Cleveland Cavaliers: Just for Dan Gilbert alone. Lebron left and his team is irrelevant and now he wants to take it out on everyone else in the Chris Bosh deal. Your team sucks Danny boy, get over it. New York Mets: Always high expectations, always the bottom-feeders of the NL East. Florida Marlins: No matter how bad they are or how good they are, they always give the Braves trouble.

We should've gotten the Congressional Medal of Freedom for that! No. The only thing Eagles fans should get is their reputation for that. I don't like Irvin either, but cheering because he got hurt is as douchey as it comes for sports fans. How can you possibly defend that as anything other than a classless act by classless sports fans? There's being a sports fan, and then there's being dicks. Eagles fans were dicks that day. And I can tell you by being in that piece of crap you call a stadium, they're no better on any other day. I BEG you to tell me why that's not douchey and why I'm wrong.

While it was a low-class act (and this is quite the low-class town), I highly doubt that Philadelphia is the only city in the entire world that's cheered for someone on the opposing team getting hurt. But it's remembered because it happened in Philly. It's our stigma.
Every stadium in the world is filled with assholes, ours just happen to be louder and drunker than most.

Detroit Red Wings- nothing against Wings fans, but I tire of hearing every single year how they are God's gift to the game of hockey. Datsyuk, for a guy who's never had 100 points, is treated like a hockey god every time he makes a decent-to-above average play. What, you have a problem with God's favorite team?

New Orleans Saints - Fanbase annoys me, we have a lot of spill over Saints fans in Texas and I swear they are the most annoying fans when your at bars watching games. Never fails. The overhype of their little cinderella, underdog story in 2006 was enough to make Tim Tebow blush. I get what happened to the city, and I'm not making light of it, but as a division rival fan, it made me sick hearing about them and how the whole nation was behind the Saints. I wasn't. I also despise Reggie Bush, so him being drafted by the Saints didn't help matters for me.
San Antonio Spurs - Yuck. *Yawn* Enough said.
New York Yankees - Don't think I need an explanation.
There's not really a hockey team that I truly despise. As a Stars fan, I'm not big on our division rivals of course, but I have nothing really against the Sharks, Ducks, Kings, etc.

Vancouver Canucks - The sheer arrogance and disrespect the fans of this team has is amazing. Beyond douche. The team itself is pretty damn arrogant as well. Marked like hell when the B's beat this this past summer and I'm not even a Bruins fan.
Anaheim Ducks - Team was created off of a movie and Gretzky and our (LA Kings) team success of the late 80s-early 90s and then wins the Cup before we do. Not to mention that so much of their fanbase is pure bandwagon. Red Sox/Yankees/Rangers/Dodgers - As an Angels' fan I have too. And do so, gladly.
New England Patriots - I'm an unabashed Peyton Manning fan. I think that's all I need to say about that. Also the tuck rule.

1. The San Diego Super Chargers! Why? ... San Diego Chargers: Every year they are labeled as (one of) the most talented team in football but can't do **** (which make me laugh) 2. The Oakland Raiders: Just cause they're our rival. Go Chiefs!
