Championships where you hated both teams so much you couldn't watch

A couple of threads made me think about this, because I don't know if I'm going to sit through an entire Panthers/Patriots Super Bowl. I'm sure I will watch it or most of it, but I won't enjoy it.
But there have been others I either didn't watch at all or didn't watch most of it. Here are my top 5:
1. Marlins/Yankees World Series: I grew up a Cubs fan in the NL from the early 80s, and I was a Red Sox fan from birth in the AL because I inherited it. That was my Championship Series from Hell. Didn't watch a second of it.
2. Alabama/Notre Dame BCS Championship: One year after 1/9, I didn't like either team, and you saw what was going to happen from 10 miles away. Didn't watch a second of it.
3. Kentucky/Kansas basketball: LSU grad. Don't like either team. I probably watched some of it but I don't remember it.
4. Lakers/Nets NBA Championship: Never liked the Lakers but I could stomach them. But man, I was mad about the Kings series and the East was such a joke that you knew it was going to be a sweep. Didn't watch a second of it.
5. Ravens/49ers Super Bowl: Harbaugh had already worked my last nerve (again as a Saints fan), and then there was the whole Ray Lewis thing. I watched, didn't care who won.

I don't think I hate any team that much. If I don't watch it's just because of lack of interest.

First one that came to mind for me.
At least this year I will have one team in there I would not mind winning.

Bama/Notre Dame
The dicksuckfest of having those two programs in a title game was far too annoying to handle.

That one was weird for me. I don't like either team, but UConn doesn't me so much under Ollie. But I was just happy that Florida didn't get there. But it drove me crazy that that shitty Kentucky team got that far as a "Cinderalla" and knocked out Wichita State.
But I think the biggest reason why I didn't watch most of that game was not out of hate, but instead that college basketball is mostly shitty and unwatchable now and I don't know most of the players anymore because nobody sticks around.

there is "sports hate" and then there is real hate. Sometimes they overlap, then you have Harvey Updike.
