One thing that I've often wondered about is why do so many fans hate players who make a lot of money. This is especially true of players who are hurt in which case lots of fans call sports talk radio and call injured players horrible names.

Many of these same fans are also prone to whining about how low the payroll is, no matter what the payroll actually is. Many of them also call up talk shows hating on the owners for being so "cheap." Doesn't make any sense to dump on the players for being "greedy" and then turn around and dump on the owners for not throwing even more money at the allegedly greedy players.

Could it be that a lot of fans just like unloading their vile bile on players and owners? If so, then how many of these folks are really "fans" in the first place?
