Big 4 Sports All-Time Love-em/Hate-em Teams
Maybe not "all-time:, but the last 30-40 years.
Any arguments with these four being the teams being the most loved and the most hated in MLB, NFL, NHL, NBA in last 30-40 years? New York Yankees Dallas Cowboys Montreal Canadiens Los Angeles Lakers If not, which teams get replaced? |

Sounds right, maybe the Leafs in hockey though.

for hockey i'd go with the devils over the last 15 years - habs and flyers lay claim to the title before that - although it's hard for a hockey team to be both loved and hated since the sport is so regional.
football it has to be the goddamn cowboys and their obnoxious nationwide fanbase |

Re: Big 4 Sports All-Time Love-em/Hate-em Teams
Yeah, I was going to mention that the Flyers of the 70s and 80s and maybe even the Oilers through the 80's might be in the running just a little bit.
The Raiders were probably competitive with the Cowboys in this through the 70s and 80s. Maybe the Steelers as well. Obviously they have a big fan-base. I'm a bit out of the loop on how hated they might be elsewhere because I've always been a Bengals fan so I've always hated them. In today's game I think some teams that are competitive in this might be: Mets Patriots Mavericks Red Wings |

[/ QUOTE ] QFT... nobody hates the Habs, everyone hates the Leafs and Avs [/ QUOTE ] I think age has lots to do with this. In the late 60s and 70s the Canadiens dominated and were hated. The Flyers had a "hated" period too, but I really don't think anything on the hockey side can compare to the Yankees and the Cowboys. However, it you want to go all the way back for the last 80 years or so, The Canadiens were at least as loved/hated as the Yankees. I don't think any team has more championships than the Yankees and/or the Canadiens. Anyway, I don't see how the Toronto can fit in this category. They have not won a thing since 1967, which leaves them having absolutely having nothing in common with the Yankees, Cowboys or Lakers. Maybe it's just me, but unless you dominated at some point I don't see how too much hate could be built up. |
