Respect

Is it better to be respected? Or feared? I don't know why I said that, I just always think of that when I talk about respect I guess. I don't remember what movie I saw that quote on, but it kind of made me wonder. I mean, like in sports, would you rather be known as one of the better teams or one of the scariest. Because no one likes people who take cheap shots during a game, but it's not like your going to hate a team for being really good unless they break the rules. (cough cough Apple Valley cough cough)
