People are entitled to their hate, even if it comes across hyperbolic.
It's a sport, an emotional one, and at the highest level. And this is a fanbase. A long-existing fanbase.
Flames hockey is how many fans unwind after the day and if they really dislike the way Cassie delivers their product that they pay to be able to watch then so be it.
Maybe it's excessive at times but people here are going to be honest about how they feel.
And if we're going to talk hypothetically I'd say if she was a guy and brought the same performance, oiler gushing (which YES she does do, frequently) & monotone voice, I'd argue that poster may be even harsher.
I'd say its a primarily gender thing for only a small portion. Many are repulsed by the lack of quality and poor timing in the commentary, and its really just that.
At least it is for me, and the way I read even the hate posts people are coming at it from the same angle, they're just more fed up than I.
