The Link I guess it goes here. A few that hit home to me: #3) 1992 Cowboys - being from Houston, i despised the Cowboys #7) 1993 Knicks - Living in SA at the time and being a Spurs Fan, i despised John Starks #11) 1990 MIami Hurricanes. 46-3, 202 yard penalties. Enough said #13) 1986 New York Mets. Being a huge Astros fan, I hated the Mets, Dykstra especially. #15) USC Trojans - obvious reasons.
Wasnt Houston supposed to play Dallas in the Super Bowl that year, if not for a pesky 32 point 2nd 1/2 choke? Or was that 93?
Sorry Nuc. Gotta disagree with you? When's tha last time the Knicks won a championship? 1972? Almost 40 years. And UNLV? Once in their history, 1990, that I can remember. 20 years ago. Raiders? 1983? 27 years. White Sox? Once in 80+ years? Blazers? Once in their history, 1977. Heck, even Notre Dame has only won 1 title in 30+ years. You don't have to win a bunch of titles for people to hate/despise you.
Exhibit 1: Texas Tech University Although, you gotta do SOMETHING, now and again. Their douchery probablly only riles up dislike within the context of the B12South.
I am surprised on returning to the thread that the tongue apparently was not visible in my figurative cheek. Who that is sane can hate the greatness that is Texas?
As much as I didn't like the beatdown Miami gave us, it would foreshadow that the WIT year was fools gold as far as being back as an elite team. The team should have also put a muzzle on Stan Thomas leading up to the game.
Nuclear Bear . . . If this is an issue of UT vs. USC, why don't we look at the last time that they played each other to make some type of determination. So, since UT beat that ***, which team is the most hated?
"People dont hate the Houston Rockets even though they won 2 back in the 90's." You DO realize you're shooting down your own argument pointing this out right? Like YoLaDu said, it's not so much about whether you win, but HOW you win. The first team on the list, the 1986 Canes, are the most hated team of all-time on this list, and they didn't even win the national title.
are the Spurs hated, or are they disliked? I guess if you go with hated, people bring up the usual: 1) Duncan whines 2) Manu flops 3) Parker is French If you go with disliked, it is because they are boring, all substance-no style and are given begruded respect, but no one wants to watch them win again. I don't know, is there Spurs hate all over the country? They didn't even make the honorable mention part of the list. If one would argue that the Spurs deserve to be on that list, surely the Kobe led Lakers should be there. Neither made the list.
1) 1976 Oklahoma 2) 1990 Miami 3) What is the name of that team where all the opponents go around inverting their hand sign?
