I really don't understand your obsession, like posting cute pictures or your arguments. He was my favorite player as well, but who cares. He's just a hockey player.
I am most certainly a guy
(and not gay either). I have around 50-60 Jagr and Lemieux jerseys and blank Penguins jerseys.
Why is that its a bad obsession to defend Jagr against badly motivated hatred?
Is it OK to blindfully hate someone for poor reasons but it is wrong to defend someone for good reasons? Nobody complains about all the haters who does not even know what happened last free agency, but you dare complain against me for standing up to them and asking them to be truthful in their arguments?
I am not saying Jagr is perfect as some say, I am just saying that there is no reason to have hate campaigns and mention Jagr in terms of scum of the earth etc - that is all!
If there was not hating idiots out there, I would not have to come across as extreme as I would not be "Jagrs shining knight".
I am very passionate supporters of 4 idols I have had since childhood = Mario Lemieux, Jaromir Jagr, Michael Schumacher and Michael Jackson.
As a fan of Lemieux and Schumacher I have not been accused of obsession and thats because not many people attack them - but with Jackson and Jagr you have tons of people besmudging them mainly because of prejudice and stupid reasons.
Some fans do not care what others say about their idols, whether is true or not - I care and want people to be open minded and treat everyone like they would like to be treated themselves.
(clearly all the haters feel that if a person makes one mistake, he is burnt for life)
All in all I think the only terrifying thing in this thread is the amount hatred being spit on Jagr for dubious reasons to say the least! We need more respect and less hatred!
At last, is there any better way to improve my english than throwing arguments back and forth like this? Thanks for the assistance in that regard
