I want the hate. That means the Hawks are slapping people around and frustrating the media, fans and other players.
This team was pretty successful between the 2002-2007 seasons and it got them nothing in the respect department. That was after owning teams for several straight seasons.
Now the Niners have a division title under their belt, on their way to their second and have won a single playoff game. They come around expecting attention and love for ZERO. Shit.. The Cards did better than that in 2007-2009 and no one gave two squirts about them. Respect isn't ever going to happen.
It is much better to be hated and see your team rise to the challenge, pissing off opposing fans in the process than it is to be "respected". ANYDAY.
