As opposed to what? Liverpool the league favorites who out spend everyone?The "Liverpool as courageous underdog" narrative is slightly more pretentiously absurd than "mes que un club". If they start winning again, perhaps their nouveau fans will realize they are a massive world-wide brand and drop the David v Goliath act.
Don't make me fight you when I'm in Madison... notoriously thin-skinned as well
Just slightly annoying when someone jealously tries to take a #### on a magical season.... notoriously thin-skinned as well
Even you would be annoyed by my LFC buddies. Insufferable, and its only going to get worse.Don't make me fight you when I'm in Madison... notoriously thin-skinned as well![]()
Why is that?If you changed the poll to "scariest" fans, then Dodgers fans would win my vote.

No one will deny its a great team, great season and deserved champion, but the "plucky working class outsiders" tale is very tired, coming from one of the largest most successful clubs in world history.Just slightly annoying when someone jealously tries to take a #### on a magical season.... notoriously thin-skinned as well
I can't muster hate for any other team either, that seems manufactured to me. But I am annoyed by some fans. It goes in cycles.I'm such a bad soccer fan. I can't rouse myself to hate any team. I suppose Barca is as close as I get, Probably because I'm pro-Franco.
You can tell the difference between bandwagon and honest Packer fans by asking if they know what the term Bay of Pigs means.Packers fans need to be an option. Terrible combination of bandwagon fans who pretend they've always followed the team.

Because, Boston.Not sure how the Yankees fans dont win this in a landslide
Must just be because I never really see any Boston fans.Because, Boston.Not sure how the Yankees fans dont win this in a landslide
Okay, that sounds a little better. Still, I would contend that they are plucky underdogs, given where they have been finishing the past few years, and where they were predicted to finish this year.No one will deny its a great team, great season and deserved champion, but the "plucky working class outsiders" tale is very tired, coming from one of the largest most successful clubs in world history.Just slightly annoying when someone jealously tries to take a #### on a magical season.... notoriously thin-skinned as well
Gonna do NCAAM & hockey afterwards...Duke
Interesting. Not saying you are wrong or right but I'm not sure I've ever heard the Braves brought up in this discussion before. You are in D.C., right? Is it the Superstation Braves fans or something else? I've been a die-hard Braves fan since I could pay attention to it - our fans are apathetic but I don't think obnoxious.Braves fans need to be on there.
It was Chris Berman's (ETA: As Berman does, it was used into the ground) quote about the Tampa Bay - Green Bay match-ups from the early 80's to the early 90's. Then it ceased to apply (see Brett Favre). Both teams were terrible for a good long time.I'm from Minnesota, live in Chicago.

That's my bad... That's prob the biggest error from me in this poll. They're just that irrelevant that I forgot about themWow...Notre Dame has fallen to a new low.
I'll break out my Candy one for you... notoriously thin-skinned as wellThe ones in the Carlsberg kits will be ok - it's the others that you'll want to punch.
Probably a lot to do with the Chop. That'll put a fanbase in the discussion by itself.Interesting.

The Heat fans will just be a seasonal thing. They wont have much to cheer about after this yearBeing from Detroit, I find almost every Chicago team's fans annoying. I also dislike Yankee and Red Sox fans, especially since they're a dime a dozen down here in Florida. Speaking of which, I find Heat fans very annoying as well.
Because there are Red Sox fans around.Not sure how the Yankees fans dont win this in a landslide, at the very least for baseball.

The chop is horrid - can't believe they still do it. If that's the reason then sure, I get it.Probably a lot to do with the Chop. That'll put a fanbase in the discussion by itself.Interesting.

It's also a fanbase that reaches very far outside of ATL. Good chance to run into a lot of dumb, redneck ATL fans about anywhere you go in the South.
It would also be hard for any good Nats fan not to completely loathe everything about the Braves these days.
Yup, that pretty much sums it up. I could go on and on with details and examples but that's it in a nutshell.Probably a lot to do with the Chop.

I just remember when I first moved to TN...there were not many Braves fans. 2 years later they started their run in the 90s and people I had never seen like baseball or talk about it went nuts.Perhaps. All I know is that I thought it was bad when the Phillies were dominating the NL East, but I was so very wrong. When you long for the days when you had to put up with Philadelphia sports fans, that's saying something.There only seems to be a strong contigent of Braves fans when they are good enough to win something.Braves fans need to be on there. Same goes for Dr D's suggestion of generic SEC fan.
Prob. should also be more than two NBA entries. Knicks, Celtics and Pacers fans are worse than Heat fans for sure. Could also make a case for Blazers and Spurs, depending on what kind of stuff annoys you. Neither is arrogant or dooshy but they're both very sensitive/overprotective. I don't mind it but lots of other NBA fans hate it.
I've never understood a person rooting for the conference to which their favorite team belongs. That, to me, is like rooting for the AL Central or the NFC North.Agree on generic SEC fan. Also can't wait for the NCAAM poll so I can vote for Kentucky. My wife's obsessed family is already predicting an undefeated season for next year, after predicting an undefeated season for this past season.
