Envy -> Jealousy -> Hatred -> BashingIt's in some people's nature to be jealous of the success of others and hate what they can't have. The more the media gets involved with certain players, and the more love that player receives from their fans, the more some people will hate and bash at any opportunity they can get. Favre and Manning are future HOFers. Bash them all you want when they struggle, but in the end, they'll be remembered for their greatness. They'll be enshrined and become legends. Some people will hate that, and there is nothing anyone can do or say to stop it.
