When I say hate I mean internally, Americans are pretty mild sports fans with the exception of some hooliganism in some East Coast establishments like Philadelphia and Boston.
We party, we have parades but outside of isolated incidents we don't riot, turn over cars or lynch the opposition like British and Italian soccer fans.
