"It's a thin line between love and hate." I'm from TO. I loved Vince at one point till he left us. All the other issues that surrounded the trade.....who cares, its done. Almost every person who boos him, it means that they miss him. The Raps havent accomplished much since he left (other than Atlantic division title), but we all know why that happened. Fluke! I admit, there are a lot of STUPID fans in Toronto, or i guess a better word to describe it would be ignortant. But lets be REAL for a second here. The reason why WE BOO, is cuz somewhere deep inside, EVERY Toronto fan still wishes he was here. Its a thin line between love and hate. This is the best way to describe it (why we still boo vince).

Hedo just played for that team just to receive $$... Bosh will definitely leave the team next summer and guess what, they will also hate him. Typical looser Raptors!

I am guessing you feel "chewed" with all the illustrious attention you're getting on this occasion. I am not a fan of yours, never liked your game even when compared to "His Airness". When you were in town playing for Toronto, I paid attention to two things in the game: "Team Playing or Leadership". Never saw you or even attempted to shine above them. I have seen many of your stunts (when the price is right) in most of the sportsnet headline news. I do believe you could've gained full respect from Torontonians, and most importantly, Toronto Raptors fans, if you would've apologized for those mistakes, right after admitting to them. In essence, its now the logical thing to do. Still, you feel don't owe anything to this pleasant crowd. Think again. Be a leader now and do the right thing. Not all of us here are as ungrateful as they portray us. Hopefully you read this and follow my advice. When its done, next time you're in town, come for dinner at my place. iChefjr Dear Vince Carter…

They don't care about Vince Carter, Nor do they care about bringing a championship to Toronto. Which is why, Vince said fuck it. Y'all don't pay attention. What has Colangelo done to make this team better? Nothing. They just construct a team every year, you guys come with your flags and shit and enjoy the Raptors lose. Vince wanted to win here, the Organization wasnt serious about that. Y'all acting like Vince is the first player to demand trades cause he didn't like what was going on. NBA players are merely pons and marketing tools. You want to win a championship, go to teams that are serious about winning, Spurs, Lakers, Celtics, Magic, Cleveland, Indiana, Utah, Atlanta, Denver, don't ever mention the Raptors, cause they haven't showed us why they jacked up the prices for tickets. Leafs and Raptors should have contenders every year, they don't, Why?
