And that, by definition is a hater. Lets be real here, what does Sid do that would draw the ire of an opposing fan? You obviously will say he 'whines', and in his first few years in the league, yeah he did. With his role as an NHL captain now, it's his job to jaw at the refs. Other than that, whatcha got? He's the hardest working, most dedicated guy on the ice. He doesn't employ Avery tactics, and he doesn't cry in his post-game pressers. Sid just comes out every night and performs with the same determination he did the night before.

edit: i don't expect you to like him, but hating him because of his talent... is a hater

we've discussed this before, at least i think it was you and i.. its not that i don't hate him simply because of his talents, it's mostly that :)(you have to give me he acts like a little bitch though.. the punch to the groin of a guy already being hit, while it occurred 3-4 years ago, is a total bitch move and cannot be forgotten).. my issue is with the term though.. when i hear the word 'hater' i want to punch babies.. it just sounds uneducated and like you're attempting to be one of the pro football players than cant produce a legitimate sentence in a 5 minute interview

i'm not one to pick on grammar or to say athletes are the wrong role models, but seriously (alright i guess i am :L).. the guys in the nfl are a small footprint away from being completely retarded and we let them get away with it because they're athletes, and because they are athletes, they get emulated.. and that's what they call a 'vicious cycle'.. so when i hear terms like 'hater' used by non-athletes i get very discouraged with the future of our society

the sentence: 'you're just a hater' implies that you are one that hates.. what do you hate? based on the sentence, you could hate anything, so to call someone a 'hater' is ridiculous.. you can say 'you just hate crosby' all you want and i will have no problems with that, but i'm sure every one of us in here is a 'hater' because we all hate something..

AND THEREFORE.. (a witch! :)).. in my mind, calling someone a 'hater' is very similar to telling someone you're having a conversation with, that they can talk.. its just inane babble to cover up the fact that you have no comeback to someone insulting you

kind looks like Principal Rooney in Ferris Bueller's Day Off

Rooney: (looking at the tv screen - Cubs game is on) What's the score?
Pizza Guy: 0-0
Rooney: Who's winning?
Pizza Guy: Da Bears

Still probably my favorite comedy of all-time.

And good call on the dude looking like Ed Rooney. ("Well with your bad back, Ed, you shouldn't be throwing anyone.")

basically, i dont mind when people tell me i hate crosby blindly, because i sorta do.. but i HATE when people say 'you're just a hater', because i HATE the word 'hater'.. its an unintelligent, uneducated, response for when you can't think of anything better to say.. IMO..

hatin' is also included.. the phrase 'you just be hatin' drives me insane.. i dont think there are 2 words that are commonly used that make me as angry as those 2

I don't think it's an uneducated response. It seems to just be someone applying the noun to the verb you're already admittedly engaged in. I'm sorry to end my sentence in a preposition. I've been corrupted by professional athletes. :)

well then i disagree with you too, so HA! :cool:

but if you wanna take the uneducated response out that's fine.. it's still a feeble attempt at a comeback when you have nothing else.. nobody else thinks its stupid when an athlete is asked 'why do you think ____ says you should've played harder' and they respond with 'haters gonna hate'..?

i thought more of you guys :(
