Wow, how can anyone hate Favre? He's like a Norse Viking, all mythological and shit.

I hate Peyton Manning because no matter how good a player he is I think it's quite obvious he's a whiny bitch.
Same reason I hate Leinart. When they lose, they're the type of athletes who sit there with a look on their face like "this is bullshit!" as if they think they didn't deserve to lose, no matter what, even if they were outplayed.
Like when USC lost to Texas and Leinart said "I still think we're the better team."
No. The better team is the team that won.

That's pretty much why I hate him too.
How can people hate Ortiz? Manny I can understand, he's typically a lazy, smug fuck. But Ortiz? He's just a big teddy bear who happens to crush the Yankees

Ortiz is a cocky fucking asshole is why I hate him. I have seen him be typically lazy as well when running the bases. He can't even be a position player. I hate Designated Hitters. It's a bullshit rule. That's not Ortiz's fault, but it doesn't make me like him any more either.
And in the WBC the way he flipped his bat after he hit a home run like he's the coolest person ever because he can hit a home run? That topped it off for me.

Ortiz is far from cocky and far from lazy. He actually tries to run. Last night he beat out an infield hit. He's just fat, and as a result, isn't the quickest guy in sports 
Also, he always flips the bat when he hits a homerun. He played 1st base for a while. He's not GREAT at it, but he's capable. There are just better defensive options.

Well, he may not always run the bases lazily, but I have seen him do it many times. I'll admit though, I'd rather take a bath in battery acid than watch the Red Sox, so I only watch their games whenever they play my team.
I know that he always flips his bat when he hits home runs, but the one at the WBC was pretty outrageous and just because he does it every time doesn't mean that it is ok. I think that maybe pitchers ought to start flipping their mits towards him when he strikes out. Let's see how he likes that.
I know that he used to play 1B, but he hasn't for quite a while has he? I think it's ridiculous that he was even in consideration for MVP last year no matter what his offensive numbers are. It's insane how they give out awards without giving fielding much of a consideration. Fuck, gold gloves aren't even about just fielding for Christ's sake. A lot of players get them because they have good offensive numbers and are more popular.
Sorry, I got on a bit of a rant there. I'll stop now haha.

I used to hate Jeter until he bounced his face off that stadium seat trying to field that foul ball.
I also used to hate Hawk since he was a Buckeye, but now he's green and gold so I love him.
