Irrationally Hated Poll

Star-divide

 

At rj’s suggestion I think that this is a great poll question….

 

Who will I irrationally hate this year?

 

I would like to highlight the word ‘Irrationally’

 

My vote is for Rickie Weeks because of the irrational aspect.  He is average… I will concede that point.  But every time he bounces a throw to Prince on a gimme 6-4-3 I want to burn one Rickie Weeks bobble head and send another to a voodoo black magic witch…

Rickie Weeks

But not for his performance on the field. It’s the fact that he wears Michael Jordan’s number. It’s moderately annoying when basketball players do it, but baseball players??? Who does that?

So this is already a front page poll...

I don't specifically articulate my motives, because that wouldn't travel as well as a boo does.

Bill Hall, Bill Hall, Bill Hall.

And my hatred of the Yankees is completely rational, thank you very much.

I have an unreasonable dislike of Bill Hall.

I think theres a rational reason to hate most of these options.

You have to go with the unrational reasons like Lamb taking Gamels roster spot for it to be truly irrational.

Eric Gagne DL time: May 23-June 29 Brewers record in that span: 20-9

Alcides Escobar

He stole Hernan Iribarren’s middle name!

Is hating Kendall irrational?

I don’t feel irrational. I feel just fine.

It depends. Why do you hate him?

The cartoonishly thick beard?

But that’s not really hatred. It just prompts me to think “Jesus. Look at his beard” twice a week during the summer.

I have an unreasonable dislike of Bill Hall.

Now that would be irrational.

I hate craig counsell because he looks like a 20 year old. I am a 20 year old who looks like a 39 year old. also im moderately good at sports but not great at any. Counsell is moderately good at everything baseball related but not great at anything (defense possible exception). basically he is a glorified version of me. screw you craig and I say that with the most respect possible
