The player that everyone likes but you can't stand...

[AngelofHarlem01]

More people than you'd think lol. I just don't like how he always taunts the fans. Doesn't have much class. David Beckham also grates on my nerves from time to time. Seems like a nice guy but from what I've seen through the years his skills don't match his hype.

 

[Got Philk?]

Rooney. Something about the guy annoys me.

Probably because he is a hot-head and a jackass at times on the field. And I am a Man Utd. fan. But I love the guy!


ARod comes to mind right away.
Kobe soon after
I have always always always thought Mike Vick was overrated and a punk well before recent activities. Probably about 3-4 years ago for sure. But his brother is worse.
If I wasn't a Man Utd. fan, I would probably hate Cristiano Ronaldo.

that guy in the office across the hall. I swear he's hit everything in the building. It's not that I can't stand him but all the broken hearted chicks sobbing on my shoulder gets a bit annoying sometimes.

All Philly fans are just sad, jealous, bitter people.

One of the wisest statements made on Interference. Well done!

 

[Hewson]

All Philly fans are just sad, jealous, bitter people.

A title in any sport should soothe them, so they won't be bitter for much longer, probably 60-70 more years of bitterness and then they'll taste victory.














OK 60-70 years is a huge stretch, but I want to give our resident Philly fans some ray of hope.

 

[MrsSpringsteen]

ARod is completely obvious, but everyone likes him and reveres him as a god? Jeter doesn't even like him Manny likes him I guess..and Papi

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

Wayne Gretzky. I get it, I really honestly do, but I just cannot stand him at ALL.

 

[MrPryck2U]

What's it been ... eight seasons or so since Gretzky last played. Hate someone else, he doesn't count.

Ok, how about Beckham and Armstrong? Those two are big time tools (even though Beckham is sex on a stick he's just too pretty).

peyton manning

Me too. There's no denying he's an amazing quarterback, but his personality annoys me so much. He can't possibly be as perfect as he acts.

Much better! I've got no problem with Beckham, but I can't stand his wife.

Aw, I like Posh. Seeing her try to walk in those five inch stilettos with those grapefruits on her chest she calls boobs is kind of endearing.

Who hates Wayne Gretzky? I'm an Islander's fan and he took our Cup away from us, but even we don't hate him. That's like hating Cal Ripkin.

I also can't stand Peyton Manning. Eli is ok though.

There seems to be a lot of hatred in Canada directed towards him, I think people are still bitter he moved to LA...

You people are never happy, are you? He won a Canadian team 5 Stanley Cups!

Canadians are weird that way: we have this odd sense of national pride. I don't blame him for moving to LA but a lot of people (especially in the West) took that as a slap in the face...

 

[BoMac]

Well, technically he helped the Oilers win 4 Cups. The 5th one was in 1990 when Wayne was already in L.A.

Maybe it's my honourary Canadian coming through...

Did you get your snowshoes, toque and bottle of maple syrup in the mail yet?

Really? I didn't know that. I thought he was there for all of them.

No

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

No

hmm, well thats Canada Post for you...

Snail mail

 

[AnnRKeyintheUSA]

Beckham- too overhyped, annoying
Tom Brady- just too damn smug, tired of seeing his mug
Lance Armstrong- too overexposed, not interesting

I want to see these people LOSE just so the media will shut up about them, and they'll go away. I used to feel this way about Michael Jordan, but you don't see him much anymore so he's off the list.

going with this line of thinking I am really surprised Tiger Woods hasn't been mentioned at least once. I have nothing against him as a person or anything but seriously, dude, lose something once and a while...

I didn't think of him because I don't care for golf. Now that you mention it, yes, he's overhyped too. Some people hate him because he took away the last sport where the old, fat white man could still shine in sports!

 

[BoMac]

I don't see how someone who wins as often as Tiger does can be over-hyped. The same goes for Michael Jordan. The same was said about Michael Schumacher when he was in his prime and winning virtually every race. So he was a winner. So what? With Tiger, Roger, Jordan and Schumacher we were witnessing greatness.

I think as time passes we'll all be more appreciative that we were able to see and enjoy greatness and will be able to tell our kids and grandkids about their exploits. (cliché I know, but I enjoyed hearing stories about Gordie Howe, Maurice Richard, Hank Aaron etc and it made me wish I had been alive to see them in their prime.)

Since when is success ever a bad thing? Isn't it what all athlete strives for?
