Here you are, bothered by the fact that a random person you don't even know doesn't feel the same way about Scott as you do. Of all the issues, this is what bothers you. You said something condemning letting such simple things be bothersome.
Can't we all agree that arguments against enjoying John Scott's participation are completely valid? He does NOT have a great track record. Whether you loved it or hated it (I loved it), neither is close to invalid. Anyone who didn't just buy into the magic blindly isn't a pathetic person.
As usual, media is ruining this. They were negative when he was voted in, and now I just read an article titled "For just one day, John Scott saved hockey." Ugh.
