I've never hated an athlete more than I hate Brett Favre.

Perhaps.  Personally, I tend to hate bad players who are in Chicago more than I hate players (good or bad) from other cities.  There are a slew of recent Cubs and 90's era Bears that are far worse than Favre in my book.

That said, Farve would certainly be up there on the list of detestable non-Chicago athletes.

Yes, Alfonso Soriano is so much more annoying than Favre.

How many times per year do you watch Favre?  How many times do you watch Soriano?

You also have to discern between hate of the player's performance and hate of their personality.  Soriano is the former.  Farve is the later type.

I've probably already seen more of Favre on my TV this year than Soriano and we've only just finished Week 2.

I think I see how this works.

For example, there are people on desipio who make worse posts than Internet Chuck.   But I see a lot more of Internet Chuck's posts.  So I hate Internet Chuck the most.

Same. Soriano doesn't inspire any hatred in me. He plays his game and he never makes an excuse. He's never in the media for reasons other than baseball related activity. I like Alf, in fact. Comparing him to Favre is like comparing a sandwich that needs a little more mustard to the Gulf Oil Spill.

I could name 100 players that played for the Cubs in the last 15 years that I hated worse than Soriano. Honest.

I might be able to as well.  Not sure how many of them played full time.

Time for you to quit the Cubs board and find a Vikings board.

I just wish there was a list of players from other teams that have killed the Cubs over the years.
