these are all just hatreds developed over years and years and years of being a fan of a pathetic team who got fucked over and/or fucked themselves over.
2 seasons ago (pre-bridgewater) when the vikings were exceptionally awful, I decided I needed to be a fan of a new team. I only had 2 teams that I could possibly change my fandom to. one was the packers - and then all of my friends yelled at me. so I just stuck with hating my life.
ummmmm 98' was the year the falcons beat us....15-1 year, not the rams
edit: HOW DO YOU NOT HAVE THE PACKERS ON THAT LIST
- Still probably the Cowboys - Giants - Patriots - Redskins (I really love being in their division, so my hate has dwindled) - Saints - Cardinals - Bucs
Best. Moment. Ever.
I'm pretty sure there's an unspoken rule about having the first pick in the draft and talking shit. Congrats on being a fan of 2015's worst team in the NFL .
If you hate the Cowboys and Redskins, you're basically an Eagles fan. What did we ever do to anybody?! And the Rams?! How can you not feel bad for them?

To be fair, most Eagles fans were done with McNabb after a few years. Aside from that, I'll just interpret your illogical hatred for my Birds as jealousy.
This is probably a good time to mention that I fucking hate Joe Webb. That Tuesday game still haunts my nightmares.
You're players wanted to injure people. Not hit them hard, but injure them. And it wasn't in the heat of the moment, it was planned.
Tiny bit different.
I hear ya. But once again, we were not the only team doing that, just the only ones that were punished. I am not going to argue this point anymore. It happened, we were seriously penalized over it.
I agree, but I doubt it was to the extent Greg Williams took it. Also, I was more pointing out the fact that it's extremely different from deflating a football. Lives could have been ruined.

I'll fully agree that most of my hatred of other NFL teams is totally illogical.
I hated them a bit less this year because they were my fantasy defense.

Fuck the Eagles for being mean to Santa Clause and for employing the Sanchize
Edit: Oh yeah, fuck LeSean McCoy for ruining my chances at winning my fantasy league this season
Oh, the old "Eagles fans are so meannnn" conversation... as if NFL fans in general aren't battery-wielding neanderthals. And the Sanchize is a crappy football player, but seems like a super cool dude. I support the Sanchize.
I drafted LeSean first in a league and made it to the Championship... time to up your game, son.
I think you're getting baseball and football mixed up.
Ummm, lemme check... nope. American football is what happens when you spike rugby players' Gatorade with a crapload of Valium and replay the match in slo-mo. I think a lot of football commentators could do really well in politics with the amount of hot air they can blow.
As for my feelings on baseball, here's me and my homie Tek, chilling at home circa 2003:
I don't like American football. I think it's boring and ridiculous and predictable. But baseball is very beautiful. It's played on a diamond - Jim Jarmusch
The regionalism of fandom makes less and less sense with every passing year. The internet, gambling, fantasy sports, and increase in sports channels on TV makes following whoever you are interested in following much easier. I hate the idea of only rooting for the Bears the rest of my life. The organization is incompetent and most Bears fans are mouthbreathing meatheads. I don't see the need to blindly follow them just because they are the closest team.
I was born into a die hard vikings fan family. I was forced into fandom before birth. I wish I could go back and change it, but it is seriously so ingrained into me now.
I hate the idea of rooting for the vikings the rest of my life, too.

This is the first year I didn't draft the Eagles D as my backup, and what do they do? Put together the greatest special teams unit in NFL history. Bastards.
Hopefully your hatred towards us wains. Chips is building a solid team of really good guys who play hard every week (coincidentally, aside from the Vikings game were Matt Cassel forgot he sucked at football). I have no real feelings towards the Vikings. I just hate Joe Webb.

Did your league average 15 transactions a day?
Aka my league is fucking insane. Forsett was claimed by every team in the league after week one. Without a solid draft you're fucked

I know a bunch of other pros from local poker games but I'm not really friends with them. I used to be cool with Jay Cutler. I was invited to his wedding and knew both him and Kristin Cavallari until I ran my mouth about them being anti-vaccinators.

I snagged them mid season and they helped team unicorn farts become the comeback kid of my league.
lol @ joe webb. I forgot he was even a player.... why the hate? I've watched him play like 1 game.

Not quite, but there are tricks to those leagues. Competitive fantasy football is like chess; you need to be 2 steps ahead of the other guys.
I found out today that my friend from back in the day got signed to the Minnesota Vikings on Monday.... So weird. I know like 6 people now who either are or have been in the NFL... Let's see if he actually plays unlike all the others.
Edit: I should say "Let's see if he's actually successful unlike all the others." The others all played, just not much.
That is cool. I only knew one person that I went to high school with play football professionally. He was really good too, Patrick Surtain he played for Miami and Kansas City. My high school is pretty small though, there were 90 of us in my Senior year.
Oh man!!! Patrick Surtain was the shit!!! He was one of my favorite DB's back when he was on the Dolphins.
I know ALOT of guys in the NFL because am from Lakeland, where football is religion. Just from the year I graduated, we had 18 seniors go D1, one of which is a receiver at Ohio and just earned himself a ring. But, because football is such a big thing around here and I went to one of the top high schools in the nation for football, I know a huge number of people who either have played, currently play, or probably will play in the NFL in the next couple of years.

The name Joe Webb is like nails on a chalkboard to die hard Eagles fans.
One Tuesday (the first Tuesday game in decades, due to snow) the Andy Reid led Eagles were 10-4 and primed to make a run towards the Super Bowl. Then, Joe Webb, a college wide receiver, decided to play the greatest football game of his life. The Eagles would not win another game that year, and frankly never looked the same. They to the eventual Super Bowl champs by 5 points in the Wild Card game. The next year we went 8-8, and Reid was nearly fired, and the next year we went 4-12. Joe Webb ruined Andy Reid's career.
Yes. I was on a jury for a double homicide. We convicted him on my birthday. That sucked.
For the initial selection, you are treated like cattle. Fed (at your expense), stored, and waiting for slaughter. Once you receive the dubious honor of being selected, your are treated like royalty. And there was quite a bit of security involved since the case was, at least locally, notorious. Don't bother trying to get out of it by wearing a Star Trek outfit, or claiming you just don't feel comfortable judging another human being. Our judge was not having any of that. I did not even try. Our judge was a hard ass and was not playing around. And turn your cell phone off. That thing rings and you will have it taken away.
Other wise, it was quite interesting.
I realize it is probably a tedious, and mostly boring process, but I have always wanted to get jury duty. I feel like I have an academic curiosity in the process and procedures (and possibly whatever the case may be, as well). I also feel like I've been deprived a civic responsibility.
But I guess it's probably because they realized I'm quacking awesome, and therefore no one is really my peer...
I want to be on jury duty so bad, but I'm told that they usually won't pick attorneys, so even if I got called, I probably wouldn't actually end up on a jury. Who knows, though. Last year, the Chief Justice of our state Supreme Court was chosen to sit on a jury, so I can hold out hope.
