Blogdom's Best: Hating The Packers

Previously we have examined the great fan blogs of the NFL and Major League Baseball, and what an interesting journey it was. But every great story needs a strong antagonist, and to that end we now present the anti-blogs — those Web chronicles devoted to abhorrence and loathing — what the French call b te noire. Hey, we hate the French! Grrrr. So for the next few weeks, we'll attempt to sort it all out, with your help of course. What's your favorite hater blog? Let is know at [email protected].

It's hard to imagine that anyone could find something wrong with the gentle, cheese-loving people of Wisconsin.

We suppose these guys are Vikings fans, also. But since Minnesota is having its own problems, they haven't been posting for a while. 1. 49ers Anti-Packer Blog. The 49ers and Packers have a mutual disrespect that goes way back — among their fans, anyway. Come feel the lack of warmth.
