I used to haaaaaaate Dirk and now I don't.
I also used to like A-Rod as a Mariner. And i hated Chuck and Shaq and now they're two of my favorite sports personalities in all of sports.
I liked Dirk. But then again, he did find himself against the Heat, Wade and Shaq. I already wasn't big on the Heat due to the fact there was another point time when the Heat and Pacers were also really good at the same time. Along with the Knicks and Bulls. So, in disliking larger market teams, in reality a lot of them were already rivals of the Pacers in the playoffs. Even the Lakers despite being from the West are the team that took down the Pacers in their only finals. And I also hated Shaq. The whole Lakers beating the Pacers thing. And then Wade getting the calls he got agaisnt the Mavs. Yeah.
And believe me, I even hated Detroit, NJ and Philly just as much if not more than I do Lebron. Not only were they always in the Pacers way but Ben Wallace, Rasheed Wallace, Kenyon Martin, Allen Iverson, I hated these guys. Before fully jumping on the Pacers, I was young and still becoming a fan of sports and deciding on my team. I really liked the Raptors and Kings but when VC became a Net, oh man... I hated him. Hated Kidd too. And Richard Jefferson. And Tayshuan. And Rip. And Chauncey.
True.
Most people did like A-Rod, Griffey and Randy.
Randy's actually kind of an a-hole it seems but he kills birds with 100mph pitches and is 6'10 so I'm not about to say anything to him.
A-Rod, I wanted him to take the home run record from Bonds until all the roid stuff. I was willing to pull for him on the Yankees to accomplish it despite hating the Yankees. But with the PED's AND being a Yankee, that was too much.
Wish Griffey had taken the title as he realistically had a shot. I mean, my first choice would be Bagwell but that would have never been an option as to where Griffey could have done it. And who even knows if he juiced. For the sake liking him and Bagwell, I'm going to pretend neither did since nobody really knows.

Im also starting to dislike KD, but not quite all the way hatred yet.
