This Map Reveals the Most Hated NFL Team in Every State for 2019
Ever wondered where an NFL team's haters come from? Sure, Bears fans despise the Packers and vice-versa, but then there's the Patriots and the Cowboys, who seem to have harsh critics in all corners of the country for various reasons.
Well, a map was just released that answers all these questions. It shows which states hate which teams most based on location-specific Twitter data, and the results are pretty surprising in some cases.
The first thing that pops out is how little territory the Cowboys cover. Considering how widespread and prideful their fans are, as well as how much hype they generate year by year, one would think they'd be hated by more states. Maybe their lack of winning over the past couple decades has something to do with it?
What's perhaps even more surprising is the New York Giants not appearing on the map at all. They're in a huge market with tons of fans, but their incompetence over the past few years looks to have made them increasingly easy to ignore.
One final note: what did the Niners ever do to you, Alaska?
