favorite HATE teams.

[seakm4]

Like most of you i was born with a Hate notre dame bone in my body, but i hate them because they're notre dame not because of the way that they play.


I'm curious to which teams you can't stand because of their style of play.

for me the list goes

1.)  Baylor.
      Baylor plays crap clear out ball hog basketball one thing that has always diven me insane.  Guys will hold the ball and do a few through the legs dribbles and pull up a contested 25' 3.  SH*T basketball.

2.)  Wisconsin
      Don't get me wrong i hate Wisconsin because they're Wisconsin, but if there wasn't a shot clock in college bball Emperor Bo Palpatine's team would be winning games 4-2 and be thrilled about it.  IT'S SOOOOO BORING.  Thinking about it the whole big 10 is.

3.)  Florida
      Ok i don't dislike Florida because of the style they play.  My old man could never stand Billy Donovan and that is part of it.  I dont like the players that go there.  I would have loved Joakim Noah on our team because he busts his hump and has size, but cut your hair and you and paul peirce can get together this offseason and buy a razor and learn to shave.

I'm curious of who my fellow MU fans can't stand.  I hate Syracuse's 2-3 because it kills us, and i only notice it because we play them every year.   Who's on your list?

[Shanunu]

I think Buzz figured out how to break the 2-3. Twice in a year is no fluke.

I don't really hate any teams based on their style of play (besides Wisconsin). But I obviously hate the Badgers, Notre Dame, Duke and UNC. Pretty much all the Big 10 (besides Purdue for some reason). And for some reason I really intensely dislike South Florida. We never play well on the road there (probably the Sun Dolls).

A topic that asks people to declare which teams they hate. Can you say embarrassing and infantile.

We are supposed to be educated and enlightened, not morons who proclaim predictable hatred for, hmmmmm, the University of Wisconsin at Madison and for the University of Notre Dame. Maybe Duke University, too.

Some here will write that if I do not like a topic, the answer is to just stay away from it. OK, that is an option.

But I would prefer that the many people who come to this site -- or to any site connected to Marquette University -- not see educated, enlightened Marquette folks wallowing in embarrassing, infantile topics.

I don't see anything wrong with disliking or even hating teams for style of play.

What do people think about Duke?  In one way, I hate Duke's style (floor-slapping, whining, flopping, etc).  But they play excellent offense, share the ball, etc.

UConn is another team I have mixed emotions about.  Sloppy, selfish offensive team reliant totally on the individual talent of their best couple of playmakers to score points.  They have an endless stream of athletic bigs, none of whom ever learn to play offense.  They play their hearts out on defense, though and are a great hustle team.

I hated Providence's style (like to play against them) because they didn't even pretend to play defense.

Don't like any Big 10 teams because of the slow down grind it out style.

[bilsu]

I look at it this way.
I always want Kentucky to lose.
I always want North Carolina to lose, except for when they are playing Kentucky.
The problem I have is with Louisville. I hate them, but I have to root for them in non-conference games. I would always root for them to lose in a Big East matchup.

I really do not care about what style they play. One of the things that makes college basketball great is the different styles.

The one thing I have learned by going to other boards is that as vemonous as the MU-UW rivalry can be, we do not come close to the Louisville/kentucky hatred.

Ironically, through two of my friends, I have access to both the uconn and syracuse insider scout boards. 
I would think there would be a big problem if Buzz DIDNT know how to break down a 2-3 zone. The problem for cuse last year was that they had 4 freshmen that all played. When was the last time that happened? Furthermore, the middle of the 2-3 last year was the weakest it has ever been (Flab Melo and Keita were not ready and Jackson's true position was the 4). Their fans are expecting the same problem this year. Hopefully, we get another year of a weak zone and not something that resembled the zone that had Wes Johnson in it.

[MUfan12]

My hate teams in order-

Wisconsin
Wisconsin
Notre Dame
Wisconsin
Louisville
Wisconsin

[tower912]

Whichever one a couple of posters here are fluffing in an attempt to make our program look bad.  
Take that out of the equation......1. Notre Dame     2.  Wisconsin         Everyone else is on a case by case basis.

ZiggysF*ckinFryBoy and Pakuni, you guys are the freakin’ balls. Your wit is off the freakin’ chart. I mean, that “high horse” gag that you both delivered was freakin’ hysterical.

And ZiggysF*ckinFryBoy, you are one freakin’ crazy dude, man, the way you slipped a dirty word into your screen name by using an asterisk. Freakin’ clever and freakin’ hysterical, man.

And Pakuni, that freakin’ picture of the freakin‘ “high” horse with the freakin’ long legs. Dude, that is freakin’ hysterical.

[4everwarriors]

What's truly amazing is that F*ckin' knew horses are measured in hands. No wonder he graduated "Muchum Come Lousy" from Marquette.

[brewcity77]

I've got 5 on it, and one that I wished I hated...

1) Wisconsin: Most of their fans are simply elitist d-bags. Amazing how they're the ones that act that way, yet we're the ones that are from the "elitist private school".

2) Louisville: Because they break our hearts in such spectacular ways they edge out the Irish. I remember before this year's UL game telling my girlfriend I wanted us to win the game on a 3 at the buzzer because it'd be divine justice. Then with 6 minutes to play, I said I'd be satisfied with setting a new record loss in their brand-spanking-new building. Then...well, we all know what happened. I hate Loserville.

3) Notre Dame: Mainly because they're Notre Dame.

4) Cincinnati: Ever since the Huggins days, they've been thugs and underhanded. I've never respected the way they play the game or the types of players they have. Honestly, while they aren't my most hated, I have more respect for the Badgers than I do the Bearcats.

5) West Virginia: Just because Thuggins is there.

Dishonorable Mention) DePaul: I wish I hated them, but it's hard to hate a team that's that bad. Hopefully in a few years.

I don't hate anyone or any thing.  There are much healthier ways to obtain self-esteem. 

[seakm4]

I'm sorry i caused such a stir with the word Hate.   which team's style of play do you dislike? and yes i know i broke my rules by putting florida on the list for no real reason besides joakim noah and his lack of personal hygiene and billy donovan. 

[Guy Fieri's Dad]

Wisconsin
ND
Louisville
Duke
Kentucky
Syracuse

[Henry Sugar]

I'd go with "strong dislike" more than anything

Wisconsin - nothing comes close
Louisville - epic rivalry, with so many painful losses but good wins too

big gap

Georgetown - GU fans are the most condescending fans in the BE.  Even the ones that are nice.
Syracuse - This went down a bit because of last year
ND - This might be higher on the list if ND fans actually cared about hoops.
Duke - of course

You didn't take that very well.

[DoggyDaddy]

I think favorite team to beat is a better category though it would come out much like the above with UW or ND at the head of the class.  Yet somewhere, sometime giving Kansas and UNC a real good whippin' in the tournament would feel just grand.  I know pouring it on is not Buzz's style but for those two...it's justice.   

[reinko]

I hate this response.

I love that you hated this response.

[TedBaxter]

Indiana is my new crap team since MU got screwed in the NIT against the Hoosiers back in 1985(?) and because Tom Crean mentions positives about everyone else on his twitter page, including Bo Ryan's induction into a Pennsylvania Sports Hall of Fame, yet doesn't say boo about a story like Jimmy Butler's.

As Carnac the Magnificient (Johnny Carson) use to say, "I hope a locker room door hits you in the ass on your way out of the arena".
