Re: Players you dislike!
Mike Schmidt.
He was signing at a show when I was a kid. I found the nicest Mike Schmidt rookie card I could find (grade quality) to have him sign. They weren't real expensive at the time. Maybe $15-$20 – can't remember.
He could tell I was trying to be careful with it handing it to him as to not bend or knock the corners. He lays it on the table, signs it, looks at it for a second and then looks at me while he bends the corner of the card into the table. He gives me a smirks and says something about it being a nice card.
What an A**.

Re: Players you dislike!
I have a number of players I root against but still respect. My biggest pet peeve is when players agree to take money for a signing and then show up and treat the fans like crap or ignore them.
One of the worst is Rich Gannon (met him at a signing at the pro bowl about five years ago). He wouldn't even look at fans and just ignored them when they tried to talk to him.
If you dont like interacting with fans don't take the money and agree to do the signing.

Re: Players you dislike!
The player I dislike the most is Tony Gwynn. I went to a card show and got an auto baseball. I asked to take a picture with him and he said no which was ok. 15 minutes later I saw him taking pictures with a person that had some of his game used stuff. What a jerk

Manny Ramirez, I think he is a giant disgrace to baseball.

Barry Bonds of course. Cheater and the ultimate jerk.
Mike Tyson. He was at a bball game in Vegas. He wouldn't sign for any of the white kids, but he would sign for any kids of color.

Roger Clemens too. Something about him makes me want to just punch him in the face.
