Here is a tone everyone can like...

Please say something nice about a team you do not like, perhaps even despise. I don't mean backhanded compliments like 'they would be a good minor league team', I mean something really nice.

If I can to it with a certain team from the bad island, anyone can do it.

bad island team - Their new (old) uniforms look really good. Seriously. It even reminds me of when they were good, which I'm sure is the point of using them.

Red Sox - Terry Francona is one of the classiest people in sports.

Patriots - Belicheck gets more out of his talent than anyone in the NFL.

Michigan - A much better academic school than Ohio State. And they had Bo (a lot longer than we did).

Penguins - Their commercial on NHL Network is spectacular. Set to the tune of 'What a Wonderful World', in 30 seconds it captures the speed, the grace, the fans, the youth, the past (Mario), the artistry, the hitting, the outdoor game, and everything else that's good about hockey. I'm a Ranger fan, and it gives me chills.

Flyers - Well my dad always hated Bobby Clarke, but he said he'd rather have him on his team than any other player he'd ever seen. And he saw Orr, Howe, Gretzky, Lemieux, Harvey, Hull, etc.

Florida - Meyer really knows how to coach. Dislike him, but cannot deny he's one of the best.

Georgetown - I like the new Thompson much more than the old one. And he's a Princeton guy.

Mets - I have a friend who is involved in the structure of the new stadium. He assures me it's going to be one of the spectacular places to watch baseball in America. And he's a Yankee fan.

Syracuse - Love the tradition of standing until the first basket is scored.

Well...The Clowns...no nothing nice to say, The Bungles.....No nothing nice to say, I can't say anything nice about the teams I hate....why....because I frickin hate them.
 
sandra i really don't hate anyone or any team but if i had to pick something that maybe i wasn't crazy about or maybe disliked a bit it would be the patriots.i will be sincere......

here it goes:

i admire the way the pats have kept it together despite of all the injuries. Bill is a great coach and one of the best in today's game. No matter the circumstances you can count on the pats doing the almost impossible.
 
Of course it's going to be about the Tarheels..Roy never ceases to amaze me by the players he recruits. Hansbrough is the BEST player in the country hands down, IMO. I just wish some of their fans would take a Xanax. IT'S JUST A GAME-Whether they win 'em all or lose 'em all, your life is unchanged by it...CHILL OUT!:)



This from a "Cameron Crazy"?
 
Actually, it's Cameron Crazie:D. And, yes I respect Carolina. I really do. But after some of the real-life threats I've/my wife/and KIDS have gotten just by wearing Duke stuff (SERIOUSLY), it's falling. Not so much Carolina as a University, but some of their fans. I'm all for team spirit, but threatening someone over sports is retarded. Anyone ask me about it in a PM and I'll tell you about oh, 5 instances.:mad:

i agree. it's just a game. some take it too far and that's something i'll never understand.
 
OK Sandra....I am really gonna try....

The Denver Broncos' Mike Shanahan has done an amazing job with a team no one really thought would be a playoff team, much less possibly winning the division.

NO ONE prepares a team better to win than Urban Myer.

Mike Krzyzewski is the BEST basketball coach in the land.....PERIOD!( I like Mike, I HATE Duke!)

There is NO DOUBT the NBA is not as good when the KNICKS are not a good team...besides, the dagger is no where near as fun when the team sucks!

OK...I will admit, that the last line was a tad underhanded, but Sandra you are REALLY asking alot!:cool:;)
 
Ahhh, a voice of reason. How refreshing..:up:D

Unfortunately moronic fans exist for every team, even the Rangers. The funny thing when you get on a topic like this is everyone always points to the other team's fans as the 'bad guys'.

Duke fans say North Carolina fans are ridiculous, and Duke fans are just good fans with a couple of exceptions. North Carolina fans, of course, see things the exact opposite. Most likely both are correct, and neither is correct.

I'm sure you can find an Eagle fan to say Cowboy fans start all the trouble, and vice versa.

Yankee/Red Sox fans brawls are always started by the 'other guy'. Same for Rangers/AHL team fan brawls (from back when the AHL team had fans).

Always have to take with a grain of salt when a fan of one team complains...
