I am giving you 100 Hate Points

On what Sports Teams in any League, Club or National Competition do you spend them?

For me:

• 25 Montreal Canadiens - worst and most entitled fans in the country
• 25 Hamilton Tiger-Cats - the jackoff factor at their home games (especially Labour Day) is like nothing else I've seen... and tigers are not freaking yellow! trade colours with BC already!
• 15 "Manchester" United - think they've always been the best and don't realize how much their club contributed to football's modern era being about money and commercialism and haven't grasped how far they've fallen
• 5 Ottawa Senators - I'd hate them more if they weren't such a joke who should have won multiple cups but instead were the Leafs' playoff b!tch... now it's just an annoyance to see their bumper stickers and flags
• 5 Liverpool FC - haven't won in 29 years but act like they win every year and never spend big on players while hating on clubs that buy anybody
• 5 New York Yankees - I woke up this morning so I deserve a trophy, right?
• 5 Dallas Cowboys - I woke up this morning so I deserve a trophy, right?
• 5 Pittsburgh Steelers - I woke up this morning so I deserve a trophy, right?
• 5 Buffalo Sabres - Every time they play the Leafs it's game 7 of the finals
• 1 Saskatchewan - Do these people know how historically irrelevant their team has been? Canada's Team...
• 1 Alouettes - this number has gone down a lot since the times when Anthony was our road block to the GC
• 1 Russian Juniors - I'll never forgive them for the Brawl
• 1 Detroit Red Wings - lots of their fans in southwestern Ontario who reveled in their extended time on top of the league
• 1 LA Lakers - don't even like Basketball much but why does it always seem like this team and their fans are d!cks?

I don't even watch the NFL anymore so the fact that I still harbor that sort of anger towards 2 of their clubs surprised me when I thought about it.

 

Bonus: if you haven't hated enough yet then also spend HATE POINTS on sports players/broadcasters/coaches/officials/managers etc

question

 

why do sports fans hate the leafs, but cheerfor the blue jays, raptors.

raptors, blue jays have nothing to do with me, a westen canadian. 

need some consistency in our hate.

Why do Rider fans hate the Bombers but some love the Jets or Oilers?? No one cares about the Flames. 

Right now...Shaw Cable. 20 times ive chatted them up trying to fix an account issue.

Update: FIXED!

It's not necessarily hate but but a bit of cynicism about intentions.

Taylor Hall Exhibit A. In an interview explaining his move to the Bruins he admits that he personally has had a bad season with the Sabres, needs to contribute and be on a team that wins games.

I could see his point if he lit it up with the Sabres but he didn't. He was paid 8 million dollars to be one of the best players on the team but he wasn't so better jump ship to an elite team and profess on how the Bruins all along was his preferred landing spot even before he signed a one year contract with the Sabres.

Roll eyes.

So it has taken only 40 games with them as a new division rival, but the Toronto Maple Leafs are fast climbing my hate rankings. Again not really the players themselves, but the incessant media flogging. And beyond the adulation of their all-star team and every new addition as the next MVP (Jack Campbell apparently is a lock for the Vezina with 11 games under his belt this year, and Nick Foligno is THE move of deadline day), the worst thing that I have encountered is that they STILL can’t let go of the 1993 loss to LA. Not a week goes by without some reference to how they got screwed by Kerry Fraser, how Wendel Clark was guaranteed to win that series in 6, how Gretzky got special treatment and should have been suspended, how they were robbed of their divine right to play against the Habs in the Cup that year. I have heard whiny fans in every market lament that one soul crushing loss, but this is about losing a game 6 in a non-finals scenario when they still had another chance to advance even after the loss 28 YEARS AGO. I haven’t heard this much bellyaching from the combined fandoms of Buffalo, who have a much more legit complaint about being screwed of of a Cup by a referee, and Hartford, Quebec City, and Winnipeg, who all lost their actual franchises, much less a game 6. Losing doesn’t make you special, Leaf Nation, it makes you losers. 

Since I added the Leafs to my hate rankings, they have lost 5 in a row. Coincidence? I think not.

We can thank the Vancouver Canucks for two of them

Meanwhile, Edmonton got 5 days off last time before playing us when we came off 17 of 22 on the road, and 3 in 4 nights, and the next time we play them they will have had 4 days off after we play the Leafs back to back. Hating a bit on the schedule maker. 

What I hate today..... the newish paper straws for slurpees at 7-11.      They turn to mush quickly and do not work well at all.   

A&W has had them for a long time, they kind of suck (this was not meant to be an intentional pun) why hadn't they come up with biodegradable plastic

BellMTS has eliminated their $100/yr prepaid talk/text deal and with Freedom Mobile still not in Winnipeg with their unlimited talk/text/$99yr deal....

Today's hate? The guy who mowed the yard next door at 7am when it was mowed yesterday :@

Hate part deux: The fact you CAN mow the lawn at 7am :@

 

White supremacists are often very quiet about the white European Jesus of their dreams and not the middle eastern jew that he actually was.

Fun fact, the writers borrowed this scene from this actual court battle in Illinois:

Yes, with the Jets struggling we now need to root for other teams to help us make the playoffs. Today’s temporary hate ban goes to the Maple Leafs, who are playing the Predators. So go Leafs!

After the game, enjoy your decontamination shower and let the hate flow freely again. 

Playoff hate-o-meter rankings (who my heart is rooting for/against in the 2023 Stanley Cup, #1 being my nirvana and #16 being wrist-slitting territory:

16. Boston - anything and everything about that city’s sports fandom is nauseating, and the national media piles on by making their suffering “special” when they have had more good fortune than any fan base recently. Bonus hate points for Brad Marchand. 

15. Toronto - “average” fans have suffered and I could be happy for them if the team broke through, but the media overload and celebrity fans like Steve Dangle acting like their misery makes them special makes them an easy target to root against. Plus it’s always nice to feel superior to someone and revel in their failure. And the talking heads would be so insufferable to listen to if the team ever won.

14. Edmonton - this is largely a jealousy hate ranking because no team should be gifted “the best player the game has seen in a generation” more than once  plus the media will whine about how he never gets the calls until he hoists the Cup. Major bonus historical hate points for all the times Gretzky broke the Jets’ hearts.

13. Vegas - really torn on this given how many Manitobans play for them, but they are the ultimate “buy a winner” mercenaries in the NHL, and have a tax and location advantage that will always hinder Winnipeg. Can’t be happy for a team that has never felt the sting of adversity and had to scratch their way to the top.

12. Colorado - they just won

11. NY Rangers - exciting team, but the media hype if they had any success would get intolerable almost immediately

10. New Jersey - meh

9. Carolina - double meh

8. LA - playing the Oilers in round 1 gives me a reason to cheer for them 

7. NY Islanders - the forgotten little brother in New York makes them a decent underdog to root for

6. Dallas - good fans and a sneaky great team

5. Tampa Bay - yes they have won tons, but they have won without hotdogging or scandal. But mainly I have a high school buddy who is part of the staff there.

4. Minnesota - it would suck seeing Ryan Reaves win a Cup, and they are a chippy bunch, but these are knowledgeable die hard hockey heartland fans who had their team snatched from them and will never compete with the New Yorks and LAs of the world for star power, and I have always been treated well when visiting Minneapolis by their fans. Winnipeg south.

3. Florida - almost exclusively a Paul Maurice vote here. Only Matt Tkachuk keeps them out of #2.

2. Seattle - ultimate underdogs, they did a less mercenary build than Vegas so they are an inoffensive winner for me.

1. Winnipeg - duh. But I still want to see an upheaval on the team for next year. Even if I was a neutral fan the Jets are an easier team to root for, given the fans’ passion, the reclaiming of a moved franchise, and being constantly overlooked by the media and most NHL players. Underdog stories are popular. Even saw a playoff article today asking “is this the year Toronto or Edmonton breaks the Canadian Cup curse?” Once again Winnipeg is not even an afterthought. 

 

I HATE THE GOLDEN KNIGHTS, I HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE THE GOLDEN KNIGHT SO MUCH

Wonder what Rick Bowness’ hate points look like? Wonder how close it is to Paul Maurice’s list?

They were never going deep anyways.

Your disgust ought to be reserved for those who have created this mess. That would be Cheveldayoff and those who hired him and have kept him way past his "best before date".
