A-G, I'm not sure why so many people jump on a player, and continue to claim the same nonsense over and over again.

I'm sure I've done it a time or two so I'm not on a soapbox, I guess its just human nature.

Way too many times I see the comment "player X doesn't play the run as well as the pass" morph into "player X sucks against the run", and then morph into "player X is a total liability against the run and will be exploited every play".

Its the same thing thats happening with Graham. He's gone from "he isn't a great blocker" into "he's a total liability blocking".

I wonder why that happens so often?

I am wondering the same thing. That's why I am trying to find out the motivation behind the hatred from people we know here. I agree that there is no reason why they should feel this way based upon facts, but there is the very real possibility that other influences such as media based (not in this case at all), peer based (possibility ... classic mob psychological tendencies do exist) or socially based (playing on economic, racial, and/or religious factors), etc.
