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.

2003 Marlins vs Yankees. I almost couldn't watch. I did anyway because it's still the World Series
