Mine:

1. The Roger Goodell- this includes the targeting rule, all other rules he's enforcing, and all the BS decisions he makes to change the game of football... Mostly based off $$$.

2. The FFRF- This group needs to stop trying to force Atheism on everything. GTFO of the sports world... you miserable pricks.

3. Two way tie between Bob Stoops, and ESPN. Stoops for the obvious reasons as an SEC fan. ESPN for only pointing out the obvious all the time, and for ALWAYS covering Notre Dame, and the Cowboys... Even when both teams suck arse. Yesterday on ESPN's "top news" they had a video that said something like "Will Purdue beat Notre Dame". Like c'mon "top news"... ND vs. Purdue. WTF?


Honorable mention:
Kenny "Trill".


What's your top three hated things in sports?

1. Going from watching the World Cup to football. Damn, there are a crap ton of commercials.

2. ESPiN turning into the TMZ of sports. Or is it TMZ turning into ESPN?

3. University of Arizona

Where is your #2 on sports. I don't see anything about religion in sports. Definitely not enough to upset me.

Mine are:
1) Redskins- I hate them. Mostly I just hate them, then they trot around with rg3 and his dumb shite. Screw that guy. And Snyder can blow me. And now the nfl wants them to change names, now I find myself defending this organization. frick all of it.
2) Alabama, I hate them.

3) Philadelphia Eagles- I hate them. I don't buy their hype at all.


I reserve my hate for my rivals, that's what keeps sports fun.

The uncertain and probably ugly future for football.
Designated hitter.
Sidewalk LSU fans who "demand success from my team."

I don't hate espn because I'm not stupid enough to watch any of their programming.

1- the fact that MLB still has a DH in one league and not in the other (this is insane and such a fundamental difference)

2- Goodell being judge, jury, and execution while only caring what public opinion is.

3. That people think this playoff system is really going to be SOOOOOO much better than the BCS.

1.) Roger Goodell
2.) Ray Rice (because of the constant coverage)
3.) ESPN


because if it's not about Oscar, Roger Goodell, or Ray Rice it's pretty much not being covered.

People who bitch relentlessly about sports.

People who say this sport is boring.

People who say this certain sports product is now unwatchable.

No one wants your shitty opinion. Stop wasting bandwidth on the internet.

1. Football season is finally here but all we keep hearing about is Goodell and the NFL with their PR stunts. Please, some of us have known the league has been full of shite for a few years now.

2. The local sports radio station airing the Paul Finebaum show about the time I'm heading home from work each day.

3. No one gives a shite about your fantasy football team. You know who you are. Keep that to yourself unless you won your league or something.

1. The psychology of modern era sports superfans -- i.e. inability to be objective about anything or anyone associated with favorite team, hate-mailing/hate-tweeting media members or opposing players, the Harvey Updykes of the world who defend Ray Rice and take sports passion way too far.

2. The death of the objective sports media -- i.e. reporters being mouthpieces for leagues, coaches and/or players for access (Peter King, Mike Florio). That extends to local sports media covering college and pro teams as well.

3. Money rules everything -- i.e. conference realignment and the death of some rivalries in college football, player/coach contracts, stadium deals, revenues above everything.

1. The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The team I hated most growing up, it's gone beyond that. They had this thing called the "Carolina Way" which basically said they do things better than everyone else. Now that we find out that it's a total lie and they make up fake classes to keep athletes eligible to play, they revert to "Everybody does it." The worst part? They're getting away with it!

2. Alabama football. I'm an LSU fan, enough said.

3. One-and-done in college basketball. Ruins the enjoyability and chemistry of teams when every single player on the roster could possibly go pro.
