My reasons for not liking the Jets are "whiteout", fawning press accounts of their fans, goonish play by B-fugly, the weird historical stats problems taking the Jets name causes, and the expectation they have that other Canadians have to root for them.
I do not think the US teams "laugh" at Canadians "turning on" other Canadian teams any more than we laugh at the Avs/Wings rivalry, the NYR/NYI rivalry, etc.
And how does it help US teams "win cups every year"?
