You'd be surprised. Imagine yourself rooting for a team stuck in a division with the Yankees, Red Sox, and Rays, and a management that thinks they can win without spending money.
You don't know what hate is. I'm assuming you're a Blue Jays fan....remember that I'm a Phillies fan. There are 3 words that will send me into a blind rage...Joe F______ Carter. :)
Toronto's current ownership is rather odd, but it seems they've had some serious management and coaching issues the last few years as well.
Growing up, my 2nd favorite team was the Orioles, who sometimes had to play 2nd fiddle to the Yankees and even Boston - both of whom had more $$$.
Actually, much of my hatred of the Yankees is due to George S. I was around 11 or so when I began reading about some of the stunts that he pulled.
I am neutral on the Boston Red Sox, but I rooted for them big-time against the Yankees in the 2003 and 2004 ALCS. Hated the 2003 ending, loved the 2004 ending.
