Somethings gotta be wrong with this....
1. Indians -
2. Red Sox - understand
3. Reds -
4. Astros -
5. Yankees - Really?
6. Natinals - hangover hatred from Canadian fans?

I'd be pissed if I were a Yankees fan. You've held onto that "most hated" title for almost a century, and now Nielsen is telling you that it doesn't belong to you.

Here I was under the assumption that a large majority of people simply didn't give a sh#t one way or the other about the Indians. Really don't stand how they could be "most hated".

I assume the PC police don't like the name "Indians".
Red Sox should be #1 as an organization anyway

Heard about this poll yesterday, it's a poll on how local fans view their own teams, not a national poll just asking what team do you hate most.

I don't like the Indians one bit because they killed the Orioles wire to wire season in the '97 ALCS.
..but it don't come anywhere near my hatred of the Yankees.

Wow. 1997. It's been that long since the Orioles were relevant. I actually miss the Orioles being relevant, believe it or not.

Call it the Curse of Davey Johnson, we haven't had a winning season since the wire to wire year.
