[QUOTE="Quientus, post: 253789, member: 1834"] To call any player a "Traitor" for playing for another team is pure ludicrous ... - Look around the league ... and the Free Agency over the past 10 seasons ... IF a player is cut or traded away because a team doesn't want him, they are not "traitors", but merely either "washed up" or "unwanted" ... However IF a player actually wants to sign on with another team, then just because of the "whim" of some fans, they are suddenly "traitors" ? I'm sorry, but that is sheer hypocricy ... America, more than any other nation in the world has been the "catalyst" for "liberalism" both in it's best and worst forms ... And ofcourse that will also affect the "movement" of "labour" ... In this case several players NOT playing on any given team, where they have played for most of their respective careers ... Ofcourse there will always be sentiments and feelings involved when some players with charisma and skill manages to win over ANY fan base and those (some) fans WILL always be affected emotionally ... just like in this case ... But to call anyone a "traitor" is pure folly ... The days where players actually "end" a "long" career with the team they "initially" sign on with in their (very) early years of their careers is pretty much over ... - Especially with the cap-situation being changed in the future, you WILL see ALOT more free agency than ever before ... IF those fans who always claim and accuse certain players for being traitors were indeed as "hard-core" / "die-hard" (TEAM) fans as they say they are ... they would NOT make such a big deal out of it, because it's the TEAM, right ? - If it is the TEAM, then how come (any) single player is able to "stir" up so much commotioin that it has (any) fanbase split over it ? Because afterall ... if it were "only" the "TEAM", then those same fans, would just accept facts and move on ... - However, yet here we are ... [/QUOTE]
