So according to an ESPN poll, all of America hates the Lakers. Well, I love that. I love that our team is the badass here, that our team is the villain, that our team is the objective of all the teams in the NBA, and all the fans of all the other teams in the United States.
Well, I was always one for the underdogs, except in the case of the Lakers.
And not rooting the underdogs for once feels good.
It's like the feeling many young Democrats had in 2008.
8 years of Republican Domination, where you were rooting for the underdogs in the first 4 or 5 years where everyone loved Bush, and then Bam! now you are for the winning side.
On a side note, the best thing about this poll is that this signifies the resurgence of the Lakers.
Back in 04,05,06, no one cared about the Lakers, because they were struggling. They just pointed fingers at Kobe for being a "ballhog."
Now, cries of "Beat LA!" rings through the numerous arenas and gardens and centers.
and I love the sound of that.
