I hate the Pats and Dolphins equally they annoy the shit out of me. I don't hate the Bills but I respect them as a division rival.
It's not even close. it's the Patriots. It use to be the dolphins until Belichick retired as NYJ Head Coach after a couple hours and the rest is history... Really don't give a shit about the Bills. I'd root for them over some teams outside our division.
For me, it's the Pats, hands down. I used to hate the Bills the most when they had Jim Kelly et al and were so dominant. Then it was the Dolphins for a while. I still despise Don Shula much more than I ever did Norm Levy. Now, there's no question, it's the Pats. Part of that is due to Belicheat. Part of that is due to Brady. Part of it is due to all the calls they've gotten from the refs. Part of it is because they're from Boston. I'm also a Yankees fan and hate the Red Sux, but not as much as I once did, simply because I don't really follow baseball any more.
As a kid I hated the Colts the most (they used to be in the AFCE, youngsters!). I think it's just because my best friend as a kid had moved from Indianapolis and was a Colts fan. Contrary to a sentiment expressed earlier, I think it sucks that Manning and Brady came along AFTER they split the Colts out of the division. I would have liked to have seen them battle it out for the division all through the 2000's, rather than watching them both cruise to division championships every year.
Dolphins for me and it's not all that close. While I hate it when the Jets lose to the Pats because they're pompous pricks you can't help but respect them. They've dominated the division and have been consistently whooping everyone's asses. Losing to the Dolphins hurts way more than to the Patriots. I feel like every year we hear about how the Fins are on a resurgence but it just doesn't happen. I'm not surprised when the Jets lose to the Pats because they're just a better team while I expect the Jets to beat the Dolphins every time.
Fuck the Pats. They don't deserve respect and their fans don't deserve to think they do. Bunch of dogshit eating twats.
Probably because we kept being able to see them get to the big game and lose over and over and over and over again.
Living in Florida keeps the fin hate going for me where the Pats and the Fins are running neck and neck.
I live in Texas and I hope Robert Kraft ends his days afflicted with a vicious genital herpes infection.
I grew up in Elmira and having to hear, "but the Bills are the only team that PLAYS in New York" constantly ingrained a life long hatred in me that will never truly go away.
Faux, be patient. Soon it'll be "but the Bon Guido Bills are the only team that PLAYS outside the United States." (for now, just ask him "what town do they play in?" either way, you're good). : )
