Aside from the team you root for, what other team is your least hated in the big four?

MLB : Miami Marlins
NHL : Carolina Hurricanes
NFL : Miami Dolphins
NBA : Indiana Pacers


Yours?
 
Nhl Blackhawks now 2nd team
Nfl raiders
Nba pacers/spurs
 
Teams I bet on
 
My "least-hated" designation is usually variable, because that team has a player I really like and if they move teams or retire, I stop following that team.

Currently, they are:
NHL: Stars - Joe Pavelski

NFL: Texans - JJ Watt (kinda hoping Watt goes elsewhere this offseason, though, and not to a team I hate). Was big on the Dolphins when Marino was doing things no other QB in NFL history could do.

MLB: Tigers - (exception) My wife is from Michigan. She adopted the Brewers as her NL team and I adopted the Tigers as my AL team.

NBA: I stopped watching the NBA around the turn of the century. I used to love the Magic because of Shaq, but when he moved to L.A. and his petty feuds with Kobe flared up it triggered disinterest. Then the game changed to a product that is total trash. ...Add in that every player needs to be an ignorant social activist now and the league actually encourages it... I tried to watch part of a Bucks game last season and it was unbearable. I'm done with the NBA and likely never going back.
 
NBA: Jazz - if not for KG, would be my favorite team

NHL: Avalanche - proximity

MLB: Dodgers - wife likes and we end up watching them play

NFL: Chiefs - most my family are Chiefs fans, so I follow em
 
I no longer support pro sports but historically...

MLB : I'm weird but am a fan of several NL teams and the Oakland A's. I'd say I'm probably a bigger fan of the Pirates, Dodgers and Reds (in that order).
NFL : San Diego Chargers

I completely appreciate that. I've got my own biases in that regard too.

With Pavelski, I kinda rooted for the Sharks most of his career because I hoped he could get a Cup. Pavelski is the exact type of player I like to root for: humble, hard working, reliable core two-way player who does everything very well in any situation. Add in that he grew up an hour from me and played college hockey for the Badgers and it all lines up that Pavelski is my guy. If Pavelski ended up on the Avs, Blackhawks, Blues or Pens, I'd have a really difficult time with that; but since he's on the Stars - who I'm reasonably indifferent to under normal circumstances - I can like the Stars with Pavelski for a lil while.

Way back didn't you rep the Chargers as a fav, before the Titans?

I actually like a few MLB teams as well because I love the sport so much and because for most of my life the Twins have sucked. Reds, Mets, Padres & Phillies are all teams I have liked to see win.

I liked the Chargers a lot from the Dan Fouts days through Stan Humphries, Rivers... but never loved them like I did the Titans.

NFL. Anybody playing the Vikings or Bears, then the Colts. #28

MLB- Oakland A's
NFL- (I'm a fan of both the Falcons and Broncos, so I'm using the least hated after them) Jaguars
NBA/NHL- Don't watch, so all teams are tied.

First NFL game I ever watched was the 99 Super Bowl(98 season). Grandpa bought me a Super Bowl square. I won 500 bucks, which might as well be a million to a 7 year old me. Been a fan ever since. Adopted the Falcons too out of convenience.
