Don't hate on him because the Yankees can't ever win the Series.
Clearly you are suffering from brain damage of some sort.
My hatred for Josh Beckett has nothing to do with the Yankees losing the ALDS. Perhaps you were not watching, but the Red and Yankees did not actually play eachother in round 1. Therefore, Josh Beckett's impact on the Yankees losing round 1 was minimal, at best. In fact I would go so far as to say he had nothing to do with the Yankees losing round 1.
His little stunt in the '03 WS certainly doesn't help his cause in my eyes, but that still has little to do with why I hate him. Rather, I hate him for the same reason that so many fans and players hate him: Because he's a fucking asshole. An arrogant one, at that. Just having his awful, hostile attitude is bad enough, but he goes and compliments that with his ego. What a fucking shit bag. I realize that very many ball players, especially the good ones, have huge egos, but few of them are as up front about it as Beckett.
