Probably Notre Dame. I'll qualify that by saying that I only started following college football about 15 years ago, so I don't know the full history of Notre Dame's greatness. That said, from a relatively new CFB fan's perspective, they seem to be an AAC/BYU level talent that magically has a golden ticket. I don't know if their administrators give great blowies or what.

Since the pros have been added, I'll have to update my list

NFL: 49ers, Rams, Broncos, Bucs, Saints. I actually respect the Chiefs, although I want to beat them every single time the Raiders play them.

MLB: NY Yankees, Washington Nationals, NY Mets, Pittsburgh Pirates, LA Dodgers, SF Giants, Minnesota Twins, Toronto Blue Jays. Detroit and Oakland are teetering on dislike.
I'm a Braves fan too.

NBA: LA Lakers, Chicago Bulls, Atlanta Hawks owners & former owners, maybe Cleveland Cavaliers.

NHL: I either don't like or don't care about the majority of the league. I only care for the Dallas Stars and the Buffalo Sabres.

MLS: other than Atlanta and Portland (which I like), I really don't care.

I'm Sooner born and Sooner bred, so Texas is obviously at the top of this list. I've mellowed out as I've become older, so there aren't many others on the list anymore. I've grown to respect the Longhorns, like you would respect your biggest rival. I would still be hard pressed to root for them.

After having lived in the state of Texas for most of my adult life, Texas A&M is coming close, especially after their move to the SEC. If they ever played again in football, I'd be tempted to root for Texas against them. It's too bad there are no longer scoreless ties in football.

I also have a hard time rooting for Oklahoma State. It depends on how it affects OU. If I still lived in Oklahoma, I'd never root for them.

Pro: I'm a Cowboy fan. Therefore, I root against the Giants, Eagles and the team formerly known as the Redskins.

I'm pretty sure any Texan not affiliated with UT and A&M dislike both lol.

NFL: As a Cowboys fan I hate the rest of the NFC East, but most especially the Eagles. Im sad they got rid of Carson Wentz.

CFB: A&M, Liberty, UTSA, and UT.

For all sports? Ohio State is probably #1. Most of the dislike is from their fanbase. The t-shirt fans are horrendous for the most part. The alumni can be bad but are normally a lot more down to earth. Ohio State's shady past and use of its power and ties in state government are a minor reason for the dislike too.

Obviously Xavier when it comes to basketball and olympic sports. Talk about a god awful fanbase.

Should hate UL more but with not playing anymore the hate has died down a fair amount. I still hope they lose and suck because of them getting the P5 invite instead of us and all the shady and dirty past they have.

Notre Dame has really risen up the list lately. Constantly raiding UC for coaches and looking down on us and seeing us as "feeder" program.

1) Any college that thinks that they need to add the word "the" in front of their school names - Miami, Ohio State
2) The old Bad Boys Pistons
3) any NBA team that LeBron plays for - currently Lakers
4) Cowboys - post Troy Aikman - they are so overrated, are they really America's team anymore?

U[sic]GA. Miami (FL). West Virginia. Ohio State.

So there is nobody that has Belmont as "the athletics program and fan base I dislike the most"?

I'm surprised. But relieved.

College: In all sports, it's Florida State (grew up in a family that bleeds Orange & Blue, & my great uncle was one of the track athletes who tested Gatorade back in the day) & Coastal Carolina (Liberty alumni)
Football: UGA & Miami
Basketball: UNC, Duke, & Kentucky

Pros: As someone who was born & raised in the Tampa Bay area, I absolutely hate all things Boston thanks to all the folks who want to pretend they still live there, despite being at least 3 generations removed. This is followed closely by the Yankees & most Chicago teams (minus the White Sox).

Additional pro teams:
NFL: Dallas (no explanation needed) & Carolina (rivals who will always be obnoxious despite nothing more than 2 Super Bowl losses)
MLB: LAD (this preceeded the last WS, but it didn't help lol)
NHL: Washington (some of the most obnoxious fans out there) & Pittsburgh (Crosby has got to be one of the most overrated players, in my opinion)

I like to say that I have two favorite NFL teams. The Eagles, and the team that plays Dallas this week. America's Team. Bah.

My favorite day during the MLB season is the day the Yankees are eliminated. My second favorite day is the day the Red Sox are done. Greatest rivalry in sports? Maybe in the Northeastern US, but not elsewhere.

Notre Dame and their special treatment. If they lost every game for the next ten years, I would still root against them.

Texas Longhorns. Nebraska was 1-9 in the Big XII era vs. Texas. They dominated the Longhorns once and Texas whipped us pretty bad another time. The rest of the losses all came down to the very end and Texas won them all. That being said, I would love for the Huskers to be in a conference with Texas again. There's a record to set straight.

That phrase for the Cowboys should be banned. America has 32 NFL teams!

I've actually developed a soft-spot for the Cowboys. It seems like so many people hate them, I've grown to kind of like them. Plus they're on TV a lot, so that helps too.
