On the other hand, it's more about hating teams for me.
I don't think so. If I absolutly hate someone, I won't draft or pick them up. I have always hated Rickey Watters, and I booed him every time I went to a Hawks game and they would introduce him.
Sporting events are family events. If you can't watch your language for 3 hours then stay home.
I know that this isn't an column of who is overrated, etc... It is a personality/performance column... but...
Hovan is not a wannabe Sapp...
Manning, I'll agree, tends to have a 'Boy Band' thing going...
Alexander is utilized incorrectly in Seattle... Not his fault...
Sapp is a big mouth... But he has a had a great run... Get off of the Clifton thing... I believe you may be bias there...
AND:
If Parcells, was all that bad... Why is it that he gets so much respect from all of the NFL players... Not just the media?
And I personally love the spice that T.O. adds to the league.
My votes:
I will second Manning, just out of hate for his down home country cornbread image...
Lavar Arrington... He isn't better than Lewis, Urlacher or half of the other LB's in the league...
And I hate any coach that is in the Raiders division... Shanahan... Vermiel... Schottenheimer...
A. Yes I do watch the games. Thank you for asking.
B. I started this thread so who are you to tell me what it is about.
C. Hovan is a wannabe Sapp in that he tries to mouth Brett Favre off so that he gets more recogntion around the league.
D. I feel with you on Manning.
E. I never said Sapp wasn't good, I said I didn't like him, and that WAS a cheap shot on Clifton.
F. I don't care how Alexander is utilized, I'm not holding it against him, I just think he doesn't run hard and that is not a result of how he is utilized.
G. Again, don't try to give me reasons not to hate a person, Parcells in this case, it's not going to change my mind. Plus, I'm not going to try to dissuade you in your opinions (Although I disagree with you on Arrington).
F. I too love the spice TO brings to the league, the Sharpie, pom poms, and even dancing on the star in Dallas (although distasteful) all made me laugh.
BTW that has been recognized as a FAIR SHOT the idiot clifton just wasn't payin attention so he got nailed and your just pissed cause he got hurt and sapp ALWAYS sacks favre and makes the old geyser hurt his thumb (AGAIN)

Last time I checked Donald Driver played receiver for GB.

Sounds like someone is a little bit bitter the Packers are a better team than them. Vikings anyone?

OK, I'll play ...
Without a doubt - Dexter Coakley - Dallas LB punk.
Two years ago, I snagged McNair at QB and was ready to hit fantasy cruise-control. Right? No. Titans play the Cowboys, about the second series Coakley bulldogs McNair, carries him about 10 yards out of bounds and rams him head and shoulder first into a huge equipment locker. McNair hasn't been the same since. It also harshed my fantasy mellow for several weeks while I did the McNair "will he play, will he sit" thing. Coakley is just a little man trying to show everybody how tough he is. Reminds me of Romanowski.
I'm just a little Hawaiian and a homesick Island boy,
I want to go back to my fish and poi ...

Well my hatred of Shaun Alexander came about because he was on my fantasy team.
Drafted him as the 4th overall pick in 2002. I was disappointed with him all year, watched as he would explode one game and disappear the next. The guy has no heart, no fight.....completely tenative hitting the holes, unless he is within 3 yards of the end-zone.
Okay...
Most hated retired: Deion, Chris Carter, Michael Irvin - I hate self-promoting hypocrites.
Honorable Mention: Dierdorf, Jim McMahon, Theisman
Most hated current: Ray Lewis - the guy's an awesome player, but really full of himself, and got off on a murder charge.
Hovan - Shut the hell up and show me something.
Shockey - grade-A player, grade-A dumbass.
Honorable Mention: Emmitt Smith - it's over, retire already.
Coaches: Shanahan (aka the Weasel) actually once installed cameras to spy on players and coaches meetings; good coach, complete a-hole.
Tice - the jury's still out on him as a head coach, but the guy's an ass.
Honorable Mention: Wannstadt, Billick.
Teams: Bears - Hard to hate losers, but still #1
Honorable Mention: Cowboys, Vikings
