I don't know why fans would hate the Indians and Reds over the Red Sox and Yankees...The Reds and Indians aren't really good enough to be hated. I would think that people would hate the Yankees more than the Reds and Indians because they win a lot more and nobody liked George Steinbrener.

This is horrible.

The Yankees are by far the most hated team in baseball.

The Reds 3rd? really???

The Indians are the team I hate the most. I only pull for the Yankees when they play the Indians.

Why would anyone doubt that the Tribe would be hated? 90% of the hatred is probably coming from their own fan base for what they have become. After being spoiled in the mid-90's, the fans have hated what this team has become. Granted, most of that vitriol is directed at Daddy No Bucks Dolan but it's hatred.

I think all those key words used on the internet come from this site and the old JJ site. So....yeah, Indians are hated because its own fans say negative things about their team, lol.

You are assuming that there are enough Pirates fans that exist to even make enough noise to be calculated. I would bet they are the closest to zero on that scale of all the teams.

It's obvious that God hates Cleveland, so why wouldn't he and everyone else hate the Indians??

Truly one of the more stupid "studies" or whatever it was -- in history.

Its authors should be ashamed.

I agree with BR. The majority of the Indian haters have to be their own fans.
