I'm pretty bored so I thought I'd start this meaningless thread. What players stick out to you that were generally liked by a majority of fans, but they you personally couldn't stand?
Here is a small sampling:
1) Chris Chambers. When I hear the name Chambers I either want to throw a :tantrum: or :cry: or :censored: . I couldn't stand his drops, lack of focus, or lack of fight for the ball. Even when he went for over 250 yards against the Bills I wanted to choke him when he dropped a couple of passes after making amazing grabs.
2) Randy McMichael - Much bigger mouth than playmaking ability. Annoyed the living hell out of me.

Dan Marino....overrated...
I am sooo kidding.lol -
Seriously, the man had his own freaking (mostly) hate sub-forum. -

Altho a fan favorite, I felt Bryan Cox was an embarrassment to this team.

Current: Joey Porter
Why? - I can't stand loudmouth players who always seem to find themselves in the middle of trouble.
Dishonorable mention: Smokey, Twinkle Toes
All Time: Thurman Thomas
Why? - He was the enemy
Dishonorable mention - Bernie Kosar, Scott Mitchellazfinfanmang, 54Fins and jetssuck like this. -
Nobody actually hated him, we hated that JF was the QB and wanted him replaced.
There's two views to this depending on which side you're standing. My view is that many ppl went to ridiculous measures to try and protect the guy from any and all criticism. The same as they did for Wanny...
But truth be told....ALL of us got carried away and we were all guilty for that crazy period on the fan forums.....personally after that mess, I check myself now when I'm in a thread to make sure I'm not helping to beat a dead horse. I'm too old for that stuff anymore...lolLarryfinfan and keypusher like this. -
Not a huge fan of Joey Thug either, as a person.....however we're paying him a kings ransom so he stays...lol
And DEFF agree on Thomas.....altho it did give me a warm feeling to watch him betray the Buffalo fans;]like2god likes this. -
garo... he screwed up a 17-0 superbowl win capping a 17-0 season.. he refused to throw himself at the runner who had HIS ball like a coward which would have preserved the shutout.
Thurmon is a good one Mike.. I have some memorabilia from the training camp he was at and one of the things they have us was some football cards.. I have some of hisLarryfinfan, late again and like2god like this. -
There was a nose tackle playing around 1990 that was inactive for several games who showed up at the airport to greet the team after a loss to Buffablow either cheering for the Bills and / or holding a Bills sign to taunt the team.
It was either Uhlenke or Dellenbach. -
Brett Favre. I've never liked his me-first mentality. I don't like how he held press conferences to talk about his personal life. Sometimes it's better to keep things in the family. More than that, it just always seemed like he was craving more and more attention from the media. I was one of the first to call him out for his selfishness a few years ago when the rest of the world was still oblivious to his true colors. I've always seen it in him.

Growing up and being a Dolphins fan I used to love Bob Griese.Who didn't?
Now that I have grown up a bit,I see the sort of person he is on TV and I just can't stand to hear or look at him anymore.Too arrogant and whatever else it is about him.OHHH,I think he was overrated also.jetssuck likes this. -
I think he and Nat must have attended the Gary Carter school of sports casting..;]54Fins likes this. -
I know he did not last long in a Dolphin Uniform but I hated
CRIS CARTER-UGH
THURMAN THOMAS-How could you root for him?
RAY LUCAS- Don't know if he does not qualify as a flop..but when Fiedler went down--he was GOD awful -
Ray Lucas... I said players that were relatively liked... EVERYONE HATES THAT DIRTY SOB!!!!
I'll add another to the list.. Trace Armstrong.. Yes he sacked Flutie Flakes in the playoffs, and yes he was a nice guy.. I just didn't like him. Can't tell you why. -
To those of you hating on Thurman..
:tongue2::tongue2::tongue2:
Thurman was the most dynamic player on that Bufallo team. I respect Thomas and was glad the Phins picked him up. The guy always played with class.. We have never had a RB that was the complete package like Thurman was. I think some of you are jealous:up: -
Trace Armstrong I liked..he was productive and worked hard
I just thought of a name!..I don't know why...but I could not stand..HATED..HATED Travis Daniels and that absurd "incomplete" sign he used to do after he just grabbed a reciever or got a costly penalty. Some people just rub you the wrong way..he was most def one! -
-
Darryl Gardner was an idiot and he treated ppl around him bad. I could not stand the guy

I don't get the Welker hate. He was the only player on offense to show up week in and week out during a pathetic season... And please keep the rules, the question pertains towards feelings you had while they were playing on the team.. Not after :D
-
I'll open up another can of worms. I admired Joe Robbie for building the stadium, but I hated him as an owner at times.. It was rare to get the rooks in camp early with all the holdouts during the Robbie years.. Very annoying.

I think most of us fans back then felt the way u just described. But in hindsight, I have more respect for him now. When you compare his days with those of Huizenga, Old Joe looks like a hall of famer.
