Is anyone else irrationally bothered by users on these forums who named themselves after prospects or real athletes?

I find it incredibly annoying to see someone’s horrible opinion tied to the names of real athletes.

Anyone share this opinion?

Edit: I’m not talking about people who have like 87xCrosbyFan as their username but people who pick late round draft picks of their favorite team and actively post under that name. It’s a weird thing to race to claim that username...

Agreed, never really understood why someone would use a professional player's real name as their username. There are a few people in my facebook hockey group that do this, and it's ridiculous.

Well, HisIceness is the nickname I gave former Hurricanes draft pick and prospect Michal Jordan in ode to NBA legend Michael "His Airness" Jordan.

So no.
