26CornerBlitz Posted September 15, 2017 Posted September 15, 2017 @FiveThirtyEight The most loved — and hated — teams in the NFL: https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/who-hates-the-patriots-the-most
Steve Billieve Posted September 15, 2017 Posted September 15, 2017 Really surprised so many people dislike teams like the Bills and Browns.
26CornerBlitz Posted September 15, 2017 Author Posted September 15, 2017 No Buffalo love Not much love or hate. Rather irrelevant actually which comes as no surprise given the recent history since you know how long.
BillsFan130 Posted September 15, 2017 Posted September 15, 2017 Really surprised so many people dislike teams like the Bills and Browns. Ya makes no sense to me either
Heitz Posted September 15, 2017 Posted September 15, 2017 Like everything Buffalo, we need to be on the polar ends of the spectrum! One of the least loved and most hated teams? I find that hard to believe. When I tell people I'm a Bills fan I usually get a "I respect them, I'd like to see them win someday" (uh, me too bro...). As an aside, I was traveling for work the past few days and I saw like 6 people rocking Bills gear! Happy to see Bills nation representing out there.
Paul Costa Posted September 15, 2017 Posted September 15, 2017 Small market team with 17 years of futility 🤔
galept Posted September 15, 2017 Posted September 15, 2017 The Bills get hate because there are a lot of New England fans.
JMF2006 Posted September 15, 2017 Posted September 15, 2017 Really surprised so many people dislike teams like the Bills and Browns. Kind of ruins your whole Sunday when they are the game of the weak in your area
smuvtalker Posted September 15, 2017 Posted September 15, 2017 Usually when I tell people I'm a Bills fan, they offer their condolences... 😟
26CornerBlitz Posted September 15, 2017 Author Posted September 15, 2017 (edited) Kind of ruins your whole Sunday when they are the game of the weak in your area Is that what it's called when the Bills or Browns are televised? Edited September 15, 2017 by 26CornerBlitz
fridge Posted September 15, 2017 Posted September 15, 2017 538 usually explains their stats a lot better than simply saying they commissioned a company and this: Specifically, the poll was conducted among a national sample of adults ages 18 and older, from Sept. 1-7. Only responses from self-described NFL fans (including those who labeled themselves “casual” fans) were included in the analysis. In other words...they ommitted their sample size, and I happen to think that it's incredibly small. I think most casual fans aged 18-30 might not know a single thing about the Buffalo Bills.
Seasons1992 Posted September 15, 2017 Posted September 15, 2017 Usually when I tell people I'm a Bills fan, they offer their condolences... I bartend on the weekends and get this alot because I wear a Bills rubber bracelet. But it's a great conversation starter! The good news is, I live in Cincinnati.........
Bills Fan in MD Posted September 15, 2017 Posted September 15, 2017 How can a team that's missed the playoffs for the last 17 years be relevant enough to be in the top ten most disliked teams?
MichFan Posted September 15, 2017 Posted September 15, 2017 The ratings include the top 3 responses. If Patriots, Jets and Dolphins fans include the Bills in their top 3 most hated teams, that's three huge markets and fan bases. So while I was surprised to see the Bills in the top 10 most hated teams, I think that is how we got there.
4_kidd_4 Posted September 15, 2017 Posted September 15, 2017 Top ten on the bad side, impressive. Thirty year nineties hangover?
dwight in philly Posted September 15, 2017 Posted September 15, 2017 i would want to be the most hated team.. glad we are higher there
BillsFan4 Posted September 15, 2017 Posted September 15, 2017 Kind of ruins your whole Sunday when they are the game of the weakin your area Lol. I see what you did there...
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted September 15, 2017 Posted September 15, 2017 The Favorite teams mostly just correlate to success probably Meaning a much higher number of bandwagon fans.
