I don't mind criticism, what I do mind is words like trash, idiot, moron etc....I consider fans that use words like that to be haters.....or, if you don't like that word...you can call them trash, idiots and morons....lol!
Especially those that don't know what they're talking about and are just talking out if there behinds...
I'm a homer and fans like me go to far as well....most of it is just a protective mechanism, but we talk out of behind too.
For the record, I'd rather have a few drinks with a homer than a hater.
