When Is It OK To Boo?

Growing up my dad always told me not to boo. "We're not a booing family" he would tell me, and I have, for the most part, stuck to that. I think it's unfair to boo and overly heckle a player who is struggling. I would really hate it if I was having a bad day or week and someone came to my desk and started booing me. It certainly wouldn't help me pick myself up. And while I do not agree with booing in most cases, I understand why people do boo. I certainly make no where near what Pat Burrell or Brett Myers makes, so the expectations are incredibly higher for them then they are for me. And while my job certainly has its perks, it has nothing like those of professional athletes.
