2. Hating a team more than you like your own team (and I've seen a ton of it on here) is an interesting case of self-loathing that I don't believe I've seen outside of Yankees fans and Red Sox fans.
This is about the only thing you've said that makes sense. But this kind of attitude abounds even outside of NY and Boston. We have some stupid Redskins fans who obsess about Dallas to the point that they hate the cowboys more than the actually love the Skins. In fact, anyone who wears gear that says something negative about an opponent rather than wear gear that promotes their own team is a moron.
and I never would have accepted Minty's invitation.
We should all feel favored by your generosity.
