Retraction:  I was hot if this convo took place when I was a teen or a pre-teen.

I had been accused of looking like that guy at one time of my life - on the boardwalk of Ocean City, NJ and someone asked me.

Probably was. The ex looked a little like Tenille.

Yup. Wake me up when he beats a top 25 team.

I believe people who want to hate on him will do that no matter what. That team has gone through a world wind of changes. Players transferring out. Coach hired away. New coach coming in. 

I wouldn't have been surprised if the other team had blown them out. They didn't. It came down to one player simply not catching the tying score. 

Where's this same energy when Nick Saban lost to Tennessee... was he out coached with his superior talent or did his players simply not execute when called upon?

Football comes down to who wants it more and who executes. As long time Bulls fans we should know that better than anyone.

There may be ground between hate and dislike for the way a person acts.  I didn't know much about Sanders and was excited for what his name would bring, but I am old school.  Once I found out about his personality (I'm not calling anyone "Prime Time" - the verbal equivalent of grovelling and feeding their ego), I soured on him.  It is not sour grapes because we missed him.  I just don't kiss ass and that is required when dealing with his highness.  I think we ultimately made the right decision for the long term.

I can follow your line of reasoning and respect it. I personally was referencing the comments above mine that seemed like nothing short of hating. I just didn't tag them because I didn't feel like going back and forth. 

I personally enjoy big personalities especially when they can back it up. I'm a Kobe Bryant fan. Enjoyed Richard Sherman, Terrell Owens, Allen Iverson,  etc. 

So Prime Time to me represents the boldness I wish more people had (when they can back it up). Plus the descriptors change depending on who's displaying said behavior at times. When the person is liked it's  'bold leadership' or 'passion'.  When they're not, they're cocky, arrogant, or selfish.
