Who are people within this E-Fed Community that you feel are Universally Loved?

I only ask because just look at the world of sports - there is always this level of criticism and hatred that the likes of Tom Brady, LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, Sidney Crosby, Tiger Woods and Peyton Manning receive - even though they are amazing talents and some of the best we'll ever see in the world of sports.

But on the flip-side, there are universally loved athletes like Tim Duncan and Mariano Rivera who are loved by any and all.

So my question is - who are some of the efedders within this community that you feel fall into the Duncan/Mo/Jeter grouping? And who falls under the LeBron/Kobe/Brady grouping?

You can break this down however you like:

Kayfabe wise, EAW reality wise, etc.

Jeter and Rivera were Yankees, right? Sheerly by being Yankees, how could they have been beloved by all? I personally think Jeter is overrated as hell, so your premise is flawed. As long as there is someone who is talented and successful, SOMEONE will find something to hate about them.

Talk about trying to get too technical. Mariano Rivera is absolutely universally loved, even by Boston Red Sox fans. Jeter to a lesser extent as well, but Duncan/Mo are the two athletes that are universally loved most of all. Because Mo is a Yankee does not defer that fact - rather enhances it.

But the whole "Someone will find something to hate on anyone" is such a BS, cop-out answer. Not worthy.

Eminem. Definitely Eminem.

And Diamond Cage, people love that guy.

MIZDOW! The one word that you only ever need.

Diamond Cage

Diamond Cage, Tyler Parker, Norman Hellion and Jaywalker

I have a hard time thinking of one person who I universally love let alone an entire community.

Probably you, Robbie, Brian, DDD (debatable since a lot of fatherless fucks secretly shit on this architect of EAW greatness but I don't give a fuck about their garbage opinions), Kendra, and Aria

Yourself, Brian, Robbie have to be up there

DDD has really highlighted himself (most of the time) to be universally loved as well

Brian, Robbie, if in not mistaken Imp and Scott, ddd.

I'm surprised that I'm not on this list *SOB lol

Nobi and Showster

RoViper

It's Doni (Nobi). It's totally frickin, Doni. Like people will come and go to spite Robbie and DDD, and so on, but Doni could be on any fed, in middle of an efed feud, and never forced to pick sides because of innate his niceness is. 

You can use the compliments he says as those motivation posters. You can have a crappiest day where you are just angry at just about anything, and Doni would be like "Hi" and I'd be like, "Damn, I can't put this bitterness on this guy." But seriously, if I say "Doni is the nicest guy in efeds," its probably a realest statement I can make. The guy is just so humble, honored to be a part of this, and even in the middle of what can be the dumbest argument in the chat or forum, he'll won't say anything bad about anyone. And to make it harder, he always pc's me, and says, "I remember you use to like this, is this true?" And I wouldn't recall saying it more than  2 years ago, and I'd be, "Wow, he remembers, or simply took the time to just remember." Even if he was wrong, who puts that much effort just to remember what my favorite food or Batman movie was? All and all, Doni is just friendly to anyone he meets and always so sincere. To the point, I have to look at myself and reflect on the fact, man, I am basically Hitler compared to this guy when it comes to being a friend. All and all, Doni will always support whomever, and I honestly don't believe he is capable of being angry. I mean, I remember some guy would just piss off just about everyone, and Doni would be like, "Oh, shame he had to go, he was so nice to me." And this isn't private, this is in the middle of the forum where 20+ posts of jokes and mean comments about one guy being fired, and Doni is just being Doni. I think he did it again when that Winterborn guy left.

If you hate Doni, you must absolutely hate everything, and thus maybe its impossible to answer this question. But Doni would probably be the closest thing. Even if you don't care for the guy, once you get to know him, I don't think you'd hate him, and just be lucky to call him a friend. Honestly, there are people that will piss me off from time to time, close friends even, but in the, gosh, I think 6 years I knew him, he has never, not even close, lit that fuse. Overall, Doni. If you have something bad to say about him, I will fight you.

This. Doni is great.

Did someone really list Tyler Parker in this thread? Not that I'm universally loved either but yikes

Ain't gonna get no arguments from me.

This. A million percent this. Doni is someone I could never hate. That'd be like hating puppies and breathing. You nailed it right in the head, Sharpy.

Nobody is universally loved and nobody should want to be. If everyone likes you you're probably either a kissass or a coward who lets everyone walk over them and too scared to make any enemies.

Yeah, Nobi is a simple interpretation of how nice Indonesian people is while I'm being the worst one.

"Universally loved" is obviously a slight misnomer, but I think some people are taking this a bit too literally, like Ken said two years ago. Just interpret it as "most loved," don't really see an issue.
