Re: Most Hated Athelete
[ QUOTE ]
Who are the atheletes who you hate the most? All time periods are allowed. Just a few that come to my mind right now. Daniel Alfredson Zdeno Chara [/ QUOTE ] Gee, a Leaf fan, perhaps? I always find it amazing how *much* you guys hate Alfredsson. The boos that rain down on him whenever he touches the puck are quite comical. You'd think that you'd hate someone like Marian Hossa (for taking out Berard's eye), or Havlat (for being really dirty), or McGrattan (for kicking Domi's a$$) a lot more than Alfredsson...but so be it. Who am I to question the wisdom of "Leaf Nation"? Darcy Tucker and Wade Belak both crack my list of hated athletes. Tie Domi used to be on there, but he kind of grew on me, despite being a Leaf. Others on my (hockey-heavy) list: Albert Belle Terrell Owens Sammy Sosa Manny Ramirez Rafael Palmeiro Vince Carter Allen Iverson Kobe Bryant Darcy Tucker Wade Belak Shane Corson Todd Bertuzzi Jaromir Jagr Pavel Bure Ulf Samuelsson Radek Bonk Patrick Lalime ...and he's not an athlete, but other people have named coaches, so: Pat Quinn

Re: Most Hated Athelete
A big reason Leaf fans hate Alfredsson is that he mocked Mats Sundin, when he was suspended for throwing a stick in to the crowd (an accident).
Whatever your feelings about the Leafs, Sundin is pure class, and making fun of a Leaf captain is heresy. Besides ... "I guarantee we will win the Stanley Cup" ? He had a really bad few months last season.

This makes a little more sense now. I thought it was pretty funny at the time, but I could see why Leafs fans wouldn't feel the same way. [ QUOTE ] Whatever your feelings about the Leafs, Sundin is pure class, and making fun of a Leaf captain is heresy. [/ QUOTE ] Yeah, everyone can appreciate Sundin, even Leafs-bashers. He's a class act. [ QUOTE ] Besides ... "I guarantee we will win the Stanley Cup" ? He had a really bad few months last season. [/ QUOTE ] Yeah, we knew we were screwed as soon as he said that.

[/ QUOTE ] I can see Leafs fans hating Alfredsson (for the reasons enumerated by another poster), but I don't really understand hating Chara. It's not like he's a good, or is dirty, or has a big ego...he's just about the best defenceman in the league. There are plenty of Sens players that I can see hockey fans hating, but Chara just isn't one of them.

Being rational about hockey is not a strength of Leafs fans.
