KEEP IT RESPECTFUL! Just because someone has remarkably silly evaluations of their team’s players (Josh Anderson) doesn’t mean they’re not evil.

Felt like I needed to put that in so I won’t be suspended.

About the time of the Petry trades, I would've said the Habs now I'd say it's a 2-way Tie between Jets and Habs Fans. PLD Trades Cough... Cough

It’s hard to pick one fanbase. It’s usually sub-groups of fanbases that spoil the bunch. And generally it’s been my experience that it really depends on which player is involved. But those that bother me the most:

1. Anyone who ignores the market, history, or salary cap…and trades off their gut. We all have gut instincts, those that are able to ignore them are usually the best ACGMers.

2. Anyone who has never posted a ACGM but likes to criticize others

3. Anyone who uses the phrase, “anything but a massive overpay”…or…”hangs up the phone”. Be original, people.

4. Anyone who tries to trade for a player, then tries to talk them down…”he stinks, can we have him?”

5. Anyone who looks down upon other teams and says things like, “he will never waive to go there”…or…”he is a good veteran for your kids”

6. Anyone who posts a 20-man roster

7. Anyone who treats all picks the same, as if #5 would be the same as #30, which would be very different than #33.

8. Anyone who routinely repeats the same trades over and over that other fanbases dislike.

That applies to me totally @everyone

I'm don't think they're the most delusional, but the most militant fanbase on the site definitely has to be Detroit. Those boys can be ruthless if your trade isn't absolutely perfect.
