Man, I can't believe they gave Yashin the 'C'. I know they did it to keep him happy but this guy is as selfish as they come. Sure, he'll score a ton of points in the regular season but then will disappear in the playoffs and then what -- we get swept?

With any luck he'll get pissed off about his contract and sit out, and then the rest of the team can pull together under a new captain.

Well, otherwise you're just bragging and being egotistical...which is a character trait most people really don't like.

Yes, but now the question is does that person care what people think...

Ridiculous.  Did you actually say that or are you f-ing around?

I think, as a general rule, that people who constantly try to demonstrate that they are/were right care deeply what others think, whether they admit that to themselves or not.
