he does the whole of the NFL. if you have time to look through it all, it's absolutely amazing how well analyzed this is.

quote:

11 teams scored positively (more people gave them likes/loves than hates/dislikes) : Bills, Colts, Packers, Bengals, Niners, Vikings, Browns, Seahawks, Redskins, Broncos and Texans. All other teams have a negative score (more dislikes/hates)




quote:

NE v. NYJ biggest 'rivalry' scoring -3.11
Other big rivalries are : NE v. MIA (-2.7), SD v. OAK (-2.36), CIN v. PIT (-2.26), BAL v. PIT (-2.58), DAL v. PIT (-2.32), NYG v. NE (-2.39), NO v. ATL (-2.41), GB v CHI (-2.67), DAL v. NYG (-3), DAL v. PHI (-2.98), DAL v. WAS (-2.6), PHI v. NYG (-2.5)

well shite, I figured Saints fans would hate the 49ers a lot more. I know they aren't in our division anymore but shite even the newer fans should know how much that playoff loss stung back in January. I guess they don't

the saints subreddit is pretty small, though good, if you've never checked it out. so i'm sure not a great portion of saints fans participated in this.

there are obviously biases due to the larger market teams having more people able to vote for them and such...not sure if that was controlled for in any way in the analysis.

regardless, it's very interesting stuff.

Seattle is the second most liked team by Saints fans. Interesting.

I have no ill will towards the Seahawks for beating us in the playoffs. They have a great city and fan base, plus they got fricked out of an nba team. Pulling for them in the playoffs.

Seems like, besides some divisional rivals, everyone hates the jets and cowboys. I dont feel one way or the other about the jets. I wont root for them but i dont hate them, dont even think about them to be honest. I cant believe the jets beat out the falcants with our fanbase. Honestly it should have been almost a tie with the cowboys, who garnered our most hatred, and the falcants. Now those 2 teams i do hate. Im also guessing this poll was geared towards a more younger crowd due to the low49er hatred. The only team i ever hated in the 80's was the 49ers.

I see I'm not alone in cheering for Denver as well. I still want the Saints to knock the stuffing out of them, but hell, I'll cheer for them in the playoffs.

WTF is with these Saints "fans" liking the 49ers? We're those folks around in the late 80's early 90's? And last season?!!!! Some of the best Saints teams in franchise history have had to play second-fiddle to San Fran. Screw those guys. I'd even take Dallas over the 49ers.
