Take a hockey player. Works his way up to the big leagues from the ECHL. Scores more NHL goals than any other player in ECHL history. Breaks his way in as a gritty PK specialist, but eventually ends up on the first line of a Stanley Cup contender. Can play in every situation, plays hurt, represents his country, heck even represents playing ball hockey in the summer, plays a two-way game, basically everything you could want from a player.

I wouldn't have thought it possible for me to dislike a player like that, but Burrows proved me wrong.

(edit:I agree with Magnum PEI that the hair-pulling thing was completely blown out of proportion. But not the kneeing thing, and not the biting thing, or knocking the teeth out of a teenage goalie in a summer rec league, or the constant diving, etc. )
