Harshly evaluating a player's performance is not hate. In this case, until he proves otherwise, your assessment seems to be very accurate. It baffles me how some posters personalize criticism of performance as hatred of the player. I also think it is funny when people refer to a player as a good guy. How would we know, and I really don't care about that aspect. In my personal experience, I have met athletes who have/had great public images who were jerks and other players who had a bad rep who were very nice. Liking or hating these guys on a personal level is ridiculous. All we can do is enjoy and evaluate their performance. Right now, Salty bites the big one.
