I think the problem most people have with this dude is that he is basically getting paid to troll Flames fans. People are sick of his methods the same way they get sick of online trolls. He tries to make every opinion as edgy as possible and people get really tired of that.

The bigger problem is that sure we can personally ignore him, but the fact he gets a national spotlight spouting his edgelord opinions rubs fans the wrong way.

Also the way he seems to make it personal in attacks on certain players comes across as really petty and insecure.
