I refuse to believe that the Yankees are not the most hated team in baseball. Just like I refuse to believe that the Giants and A's (the OAKLAND ATHLETICS) are the most popular teams. A careful look at what this study is actually talking about makes it seem like it doesn't necessarily decide whether fans like or dislike a team, but rather how they merely respond to the brand. You be the judge:
With 27 World Series championships, baseball's highest payroll and some of the most boastful fans in sports, the New York Yankees have to be the team other baseball fans love to hate, right? Wrong.
No one HATES the Astros or Reds or Nationals. Maybe their own fans hate the franchise because of their disregard for the fans. But EVERYONE hates the Yankees.
Right?
