Whom Do We Love to Hate?

10:00 AM -- The Wall Street Journal has a brand spanking new sports section, and it brings us some surprising baseball news:

  • Contrary to popular belief, the Yankees are only the fifth-most despised team in the majors, according to an Internet algorithm built by Nielsen Co. that analyzes how people feel about certain things.

Well, that sounds very scientifical.

And which team, you may ask, is the most hated? The Cleveland Freaking Indians!

Talk about kicking'em when they're down...

Maybe it's their mascot...But I really doubt that most people give the Tribe much thought at all.

They must have polled their fans.
