Is it bad that I hate Josh Hamilton?

[JB Abell]

I don't hate Hamilton, but have disliked him for years. Having to have an "accountability partner" or whatever and being incredibly streaky. Not someone you want on your team. Unless he happens to be on a hot streak when it matters (i.e. playoffs), he just strikes out almost every at bat and is completely useless, like with the Rangers last season where they lost a huge lead in the AL West. At least pujols still produces RBI's when he is slumping.

But whatcha gonna do other then hope he produces like he is supposed to. Who knows, maybe he will have a year like last year only opposite. Last year at the beginning of the season he was tearing it up like he was about to have a historical season and then just slumped the whole second half of the season.

I know, HATE is a strong word but this guy...

My cousin, the Cubs fan, was begging for the Cubs to sign him and of course I did nothing but tell him what a loser Josh was. Not shockingly, like any true (psycho) sports fan I jumped up and down when we signed him.

Between his awful Spring and even worse season, his responses to the media are actually making me sick. He needs to stop living in the past because I truly don't care how many home runs he has unless they are in that days game in an Angels uniform.

We've all heard that's he's a cancer and a problem and seem to be seeing it in live action right now. I honestly cannot stand him.

As a person, I'm sure he's a nice guy but as a baseball player he is absolute crap right now and honestly seems to care very little if at all.

Discuss.

 

I'm just curious, but what is your standard for calling someone a "nice guy"? For example, would someone who becomes a millionaire at the age of 18 on the back of his physical gifts, then becomes a crack junky and gets covered head to toe in tattoos. Then finds "god" and becomes a redemption story. Then becomes a prima donna, cheats on his wife publicly twice, and finds a way to deflect any responsibility for his own behavior (like, for example, the "devil"). Also, he actually has two-way conversatoins with jezis in his head (both parts are being played by Hamilton's own defective brain).

 

Is Allen Iverson a "nice guy" too?

I don't think Josh is "covered head to toe " in tattoos - hell I have more tattoos than Josh and surprisingly I have never smoked crack - as for him being a nice guy - I have no idea if he is a nice guy I just want him to play baseball better

Are Rangers fans still this bitter about Hamilton even though he's totally tanked here? Give it a rest. 

[jshep]

Wow, that's the most bitter post I've seen from a Rangers fan posting here in a while.

 

Impressive.

Allen Iverson is totally a nice guy.

I'm sorry, I don't speak Spanish.
