Sorry!!! Anyways, I'd say it's obviously a combination of everything listed, BUT I think one of the biggest contributing factors lies with the ballplayers. It comes from today's game having a great number of players that we either can't relate to, that are unapproachable and often times very unappreciative of the opportunity that they've been given by the game..
Also, the current dirt-digging state of the media would get some of the blame in my book as well. You rarely ever hear good stories about athletes nowadays. Mostly what you get is stories about drugs, spousal abuse, infidelity, latin ballplayers lying about their names and ages, and other assorted acts of general assholishness. But then again is it really the media's fault, or are modern athletes exactly what they've been exposed as?
