Man I hate Dicky V. The UNC lovefest continues

I only put Notre Dame, the Yankees and Alabama above UNC for my most hated sports teams. That being said, how can you not expect the majority of analysts to predict UNC to win it all? Funny for years he was a Duke homer, now Dickie V is suddenly a UNC home? I guess he made a heel turn?

He's a whole ACC homer. But despite that fact, I don't blame him picking UNC to win it all and Hansborough to win POY. That's the safe pick. Now it would take some balls to pick UT and Chris Lofton as POY...just saying :)

it would take balls to make that pick. Lofton over Hansborough isn't as ballsy because i personally feel Hansborough is overrated, but UNC is loaded and has a lot fewer holes than UT. And if UNC waltzes through the regular season I don't see how Hansborough doesn't get POY, whether he deserves it or not. I still like Hibbert over everyone right now.

I actually don't hate florida as much as others on here. In fact, Georgia is probably my most hated SEC team behind Bama. Then Florida. People accuse me of talking about Florida too much, and this is just going to hurt my case even more. I can't stand them, that's fact and I love to see them lose, but they just aren't a team I look at it and automatically hate. Behind UNC would be the Dallas Cowboys and then probably the Colts, maybe even in reverse order these days.

Well I agree with you on everything there

wow KC, you seemed like such a cool dude. You knew that hot chick and everything. But now I just don't know that I can respect you anymore. The Braves are my second most hated MLB team, even over the Giants (remember, I'm an Oakland fan)

ya know I had kind of cooled on my hate for Duke for awhile there. Maybe just b/c it's the offseason but as soon as they landed EW my hate suddenly came back with even more force. Let me add Mizzou to the people I don't hate. I got a couple of friends on the team so I have to root for them

why do you hate the braves if you're an Oakland fan? I don't have a problem w/ Oakland.

longggggggggg story. Grew up a Braves fan actually with Oakland as my second team. As the Braves got good, I hated how JS ran the team. Always got rid of my favorite players and I hated the carousel at first base. Especially when they moved Klesko to the outfield and then got pissed at him because he stunk so bad as an outfielder. And of course swithing positions like that is going to hurt your batting too. I saw Jermaine Dye twice in the minors and he hit two hr's in each game I saw him play. He also hit 2 HR in the first game I saw him as a Brave and they let him go. Hated the Braves from that point on. I will never forget how dissatisfied i was when the Braves finally won the Series, showed how much my interest in them had waned. Then I became really good friends with a girl from Northern Cali who was a huge Oakland fan, Dye got traded from the Royals, had a huge season and I was hooked on the A's again. Once he left Oakland I was too hooked on the green and gold. Only time I've ever jumped teams, and I don't think I can be called a bandwagonner, seeing I dumped a team that was in the midst of one of the greatest Divisional runs in all of baseball.

Ok I can see what you're saying. Kind of seems funny to me b/c I love JS and all the moves he makes, most people do. But that is a matter of opinion. I wouldn't call you a bandwagoner since it wasn't the yankees or anything you picked. Sorry to say that I became a Colts fan as soon as Peyton got drafted there. Now if Peyton left I would still be a Colts fan b/c I'm hooked now. Also I should add to my list the Royals. Loveable losers they are. Plus royals fans around here at the games are downright hilarious. You have to be funny to stand a team like this.
