The Hater - has sadly passed away.

Man, this is tough news to hear. Hater was an OG poster that I've interacted with online since before realgm even existed.

True hardcore fan and definitely deserves a spot in the Raptors Realgm HOF.

We never met in person Ted, but your loss will be felt, as you were a valued member of this community.

Rest in Peace, friend.

RIP he wasn't a hater at all.

RIP. One of the OG posters. Glad he got a chance to see the Raps win a championship

teddd changed his name way back in the day because someone told him that he was just a hater. For doubting Raptors management. In the Babcock era. Because teddd was pretty consistently right.

RIP - A very reasonable and knowledge poster in my eyes since the time I was here.

He was the type of guy you would feel good to see had just given you a +1 on a post.

RIP to an OG. One of my favourite posters to read over the near 20 years I've been hanging around. Always had a no nonsense and straight to the point approach, and true to his name! His posts would make me laugh, think, or run my blood pressure up. He will be sorely missed around here and to all that knew and cared for him. Peace to his close friends and family, and to all who personally knew him on here. RGM and The Raptors online community in general is a relatively small world. It is hard to digest losing someone like this. **** Cancer

Terrible news. He was always a good read. My condolences to his family. I'm happy he got to experience the championship run.

Until we both mellowed a bit and found more to our mutual liking in the Raptors and Jays, we would clash more than we agreed, but that's the essence of a good bulletin board. Dying so young - no fair. At least he got to see a championship here in Toronto.

F**K CANCER INDEED! Had cancer take away a loved one in the family recently. RIP.

Wow damn...

Legit stunned by the news. He was easily one of my favorite GB/Rap posters. Had no idea he was struggling.

Tough loss of one of the sharper minds on these boards.

Any time that you lose someone that you respect, it hurts. Wishing his friends, including those on here and family the appropriate time needed to manage this loss. Cancer got another one.

Condolences on the Portland game broadcast.

Yes, nice tribute to Hater from Matt.

KrazyP · Post #98 » by **KrazyP** » Tue Nov 16, 2021 5:29 am

This one hurts. One of the more intelligent and long standing OG posters on this forum.

My condolences go out to his family out in the real world. RIP brother.

Matt and Jack gave condolences to a Raptor fan's family near the end of the Portland game, was it him?

edit - I see it was.

Sad to hear.

Hater would have probably preferred "in lieu of flowers, please tell Leo Rautins that he sucks", but I'm glad they were able to get it on the broadcast.
