Go read some Cleveland Cavs forums if you want to see some real bitterness towards a former player.

The irony is that the way you respond to the "idiotic" posts makes it appear that you are actually the one who is bitter or at the very least can't handle the fact that lots of people disagree with your position. I suppose they all must be idiots.

Its not really that hard to understand. Most people here are Falcon fans first and foremost, players come and go, so when a former player talks trash about his former team it's likely to ruffle some feathers of those that are still Falcons fans. The expectation that fans of the team would side with the former player over their own team is what's idiotic.
