Like, for instance, Raiders/Patriots?

1. Oh hell yeah...
Any time the Redskins and Eagles play I root for the officiating crew.

2. I always vote against Chicago, Detroit, St Louis, Pittsburgh,
and the southern teams. So, when they play each other, I am forced to be in a quandary and wish that they could both lose.

And I've said that a lot, too - "Can't we just have them both lose?"


(I base my liking of a team on my liking of the city/state from which they come)

17. You don't have to vote against Detroit
They always lose. At least since I was a kid.

3. Chicago Bears v. Green Bay Packers
If this game ended due to too many injured players, then I would be OK with that.

8. Ooooh! We Bears Fans Are Gonna Get You For That!
No! Seriously. We're a vindictive crowd.

Actually for me, it would be Dallas and Denver. I hate both of those teams and i don't like either city either.

7. I second the Dallas and see you Philly!
I am a die hard 'Skins fan. I suppose, I have to be die hard to be a fan of them lately, because they have been pretty bad.

10. At least two each year: Cowboys/R*dsk*ns.
A pox on both their houses!

Of course, by now, I have grudges against a huge chunk of the entire NFL. Any matchup including any combination of the Dolts (abandoned my hometown of Baltimore), Vi-queens (entire state of Minn. is in the doghouse ever since a female split on me and moved there), Ram-Its (once employed loudmouthed fundie Kurt Warner, plus abandoned L.A.), plus the two listed above (just on general principles; as Hunter Thompson once put it regarding the 'Skins, "Any team with both God and Nixon on its side was f*cked from the start").

For some reason they all seem to be in the NFC, except the Dolts. And if Benson manages to use the hurricane to slither the 'Aints out of N.O., it'll be paper bag-over-the-head time once again!

12. Green Bay vs. Philadelphia (or anyone vs. Raiders)
Edited on Thu Sep-08-05 06:02 PM by EOO
It's the football equivalent of the Yankees vs. the Red Sox (more in terms of: "Which team's fans can be the most annoying?")
