What other NFL franchise do you have the most "RESPECT" for? Which one do you have the least respect for?
Most respect= Denver Broncos
Tracy Porter is doing great on their team. John Elway was the reason why the Falcons have zero rings. I respect Peyton Manning and felt bad for him after he left the colts. Elway knows the difference between a QB that can win games(Manning) and a QB that's just for show(Tebow). The Broncos are about to destroy the Falcons tonight. The fans are nice. I'd also add the pack. Least respect= Philadelphia Eagles Michael Vick killed dogs and the fans praise him. The Fans are jerks ALL the time. The players get in fights with EVERY TEAM all the time. They're worse than the Raiders cause at least the Raiders LIKE their team. I'm not even sure if Eagles fans actually like the Eagles. Everybody thinks they'll do well and then they crash and burn. |

Most respect = Pats

Re: What other NFL franchise do you have the most "RESPECT" for? Which one do you have the least respect for?
Packers. (and Im surprised to see others agreeing with this.)
I stole much of this knowledge from an SI article, called, Why Everyone Should Root for the Packers. But its true stuff, and I support it. 1. The team truly belongs to the community. They're owned by some American Legion Hall, and fans have shares in the team. So the team can never MOVE. The Plague of Moving, started by Al Davis, almost destroyed the NFL for me. I still root against moving teams. 2. Even more "team belongs to the community:" Smallest NFL City. Just like us, they're supposed to be too small, too poor, etc. What you have is a totally invested fan base, just like us. And just like us, they come from all over the state, and neighboring states, not just their metro area. They're the only team who has fans who can touch us in the Krazy Department. Just like us, the little guys, we buy more of our teams stuff than the people in big cities. 3. Their fans. I dont hear them crying about "amenities." I see them sitting in the cold on benches and celebrating about it. I like their cheeseheads too. Come on, thats funny stuff. 4. They have this tradition, where kids loan their bicycles to players after each practice during Training Camp. And the kid carries the players helmet & shoulder pads. Can we please have something like this in our town? Except we could let grown men carry stuff for Saints Players, and get on the field, starting with me. 5. Lambeau. This should be #1, actually. Lambeau is Lambeau because it doesnt clutter up your football experience with amenities & other crap. I dont think they even have a big screen. You dont see a swimming pool, or a special yuppified cabana bar, or whatever. This is why Packer Fans still have attention spans. Why cant they understand that I, the Real Fan, who makes the stadium what it is, give a crap less about luxury accomodations. Im 100% more interested in looking at any ground where Ray Nitchzke used to play. Football sells football. So does history. 6. Tradition. The Packers still wear the same uniforms they wore in the 60s. And they didnt "black out." They look very American, I think. The Packers still look like football, and not Cirque du Soleil. ...or an arena league team. 7. Bart Starr, Lynn Dickey, Don Majkowski (spelling???), Brett Favre, (yes, I like Brett Favre.) Aaron Rogers. Least Respected: Raiders. Al Davis did more to destroy fans loyalty than any owner, even Art Modell. He started the "moving" epidemic. He invented the PSL--- greatest sports scam ever. Their fans celebrate their own grotesqueness, probably, because after paying the PSL, they cant afford normal clothes. Malt Liquor & Thunderbird, the only thing they can afford, causes unreasonable behavior. Davis was next to Jerry Jones in the meddling department. |

Yeah. But when you turn the ball over like 5 times, it puts a lot of pressure on defense.
Plus it's cool when any former saint does well. If shanle did well in another city, I would be happy for him(even if he sucks). |

Most respect: Pats
Second most respect: Green Bay, for having the tradition and the Lombardi history thing there, and then re-inventing themselves with the modern Favre/Rodgers team that is current and modern but still kinda cool like the old Packers were Least respect:Falcons and their fans Best visiting fans ever encountered in my section in the Dome:Cleveland Browns fans -- I hate to admit it but they had us laughing along with them while they reamed us that time,they were in just as much shock as we were, what a crazy game. |

Most respect - Packers
