Live from Southern California, this is the Jim Rome show.

I know that all of you are feeling that post-super Bowl hangover.

And you're kind of down, you're despondent, you're crashing hard.

I get it.

Like that crazy dopamine crash from the end of the NFL playoffs is a real thing.

It's a real thing every single year. However, since I know that hating is the best way for so many of you to get those dopamine levels back up,

because after all, and I came up with this myself, hate is the new dopamine.

I've got a solution. I don't like hate at all. But in sports, in its proper context, it might

actually provide something positive because I know you all rally around it.

So I think we have ourselves a new arch villain of sports.

Somebody to take over for the Chiefs since they just got hammered in the Super Bowl.

And I think that team that I'm about to name might surprise you.

Here is your hint.

Aaron Boone definitely thinks that they're the ones too.

You know, Boone probably wouldn't say hate, but they're villains.

You see, because Boone is still all up in his feelings about the way the Dodgers ran smack after beating the hell out of the Yankees in the World Series.

Yeah, I know, I know.

Dodger Jim calling the Dodgers the new arch villain of sports.

You sound like a homer.

It's probably because I'm not actually Dodger Jim.

But I'm also not actually anti-Dodger Jim.

Like, I don't have any car flags on my sled, but I definitely am not here to hate them.
