I also agree with others that it's hard to use the word 'hate' when a person is trying to succeed and is merely placed into a position where they can't. None of us would turn down the money that any of these players or coaches got, so I guess we'd all be hated too if we were in their positions. And as we know, we're all great people.

In reality, the players and coaches we should 'hate' are the ones who wasted their talent by being lazy or doing stupid stuff to damage their careers. A guy like Mike Bell really should be the most hated player in Chiefs history. A #2 overall pick who went to prison in the prime of his career for buying cocaine? That's a guy who deserves to be cast into infamy.


If you want to extend this to coaches Greg Robinson is a serious contender. The thread here going after him after the Indy playoff loss was brutal on a special level. I remember someone photoshopping his face on an old picture of a little naked Vietnamese girl running down a road away from the war. It got so bad some insisted some brakes be applied out of consideration for the man’s family. There is a special hate there for that man.
