Why he might be annoying:

    After a failed experiment as a starter in 2003, he never was able to regain the velocity on his fastball.
    He has lots of tattoos.
    His nipples and tongue are pierced.
    After Reds fans booed him for blowing a 9-3 lead against the St. Louis Cardinals, he said 'if they were any kind of fans, they'd stand by us...they're the real problem here' (May 2, 2005).
    He was released by the Reds on May 23, 2005 after giving the middle finger to a fan who was heckling him for giving up 5 runs in 1 inning.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He is the first Vietnamese-born player in major league history.
    In his prime, he was considered the best closer in the National League.
    During his prime, he was known as 'the Baby-Faced Assassin' due to his consistency as a closer and his youthful appearance.
