I am somewhat new to soccer (~5 years experience watching), but is it the easiest sport to have a deep hatred for players on the opposing team? It feels that way when I watch. For instance, I wasn't on this thread last night, but I watch Sporting win the 'ship and during the entire portion that I watched (from about the 70th minute through pk's), I found my blood boiling at little crap that Philly was doing and I had an intense hatred for that La Croix dude without even knowing that the stud soccer posters on gE all hated him, too!
