"shoot, marry, sleep with" for the NFL

So the great John Avelis and I were chatting the other day about (in this order) crappy holiday news, key lime pie recipes, websites that let you upload stats about weight loss, male fans shaving their favorite team's logo into their back hair, Tony Kornheiser ... and eventually how awesome Mike Singletary is.

John says about Singletary:


Why? I asked.



I told him the 'Niners were on my "Neutral" list of teams -- don't like 'em, don't hate 'em ... if they win, fine. If not, no biggie.

Got me to thinking: Who's on my NFL "Love, Hate, Neutral" lists? And feel free to add yours in the comments ...

Love:
Steelers
Colts
Bears
Rams

Hate:
Patriots
Ravens
Bengals
Broncos
Cowboys
Vikings
Falcons
Saints
Seahawks

Neutral:
all the rest, I guess ...

My Platonic man-love for the Bears is such that I can't really claim to "Love" any other team, but I'll try to come up with 4-5 more teams I dig.

Love:
Bears

Love, but not IN Love:
Steelers
Titans
Buccaneers
Patriots, although the last several years have tested this (Let the Tommee from Newport jokes begin)

The Enemies List:

Packers
Cowboys
49ers
Colts
Vikings
Rams
Dolphins
Raiders
Ravens

I don't really take any joy in hating on the Raiders or Ravens like I do the others, it's really more that Al Davis and Art Modell beg for my disdain.

As a Steelers fan you are required to hate both the Raiders and the Browns in addition to easy targets like the Ravens, Patriots and Cowboys. Hating the Falcons and Saints? That's like hating Luxemburg and Finland. There are only two legitimate lists: 1--the team (singular)you love, and 2--The teams you hate in order of degree. Loving more than one team is not only unmanly, it's illegal. I love the Steelers, I hate the rest, beginning with the Ravens and ending with the Packers.
