Most Hated Athletes

Is everyone on this board a former peace corp volunteer, understudy of Ghandi, or a Christian Missionary.
It has been brought to my attention that my posts are..... I guess you would say a little on the negative side. I hate to think of myself as the Gloom Gus of this post.
So... I know that all of you have some cynisism in you somewhere. So please... make me feel not so alone and tell me your most hated athlete?
Everyone has one... I just know it.
A player from a rival team, someone who has been in trouble with the "law", or even a guy you just don't like the look of?
Lets find out who the most hated person in sports is.

Re: I can't be the only one

Scott Stevens, former captain of the Devils. You want cynical? After the dirty hits he laid out during his career, his own post concussion syndrome was well deserved karma.

Re: Most Hated Athletes

Barry Bonds.

I know I've been influenced by all the recent media stir but he's my most hated athlete in sports at the moment.

And Who Dey, all posts/opinions which are in line with the forum rules are welcome here, negative or postitive

Re: Most Hated Athletes

I'm with you on the Brett Favre hate. I'm a life long Bears fan would probably be most of the reason, but I just don't like his attitude for some reason. I saw an interview with him about 10 years ago and went away feeling like he was mocking me through the TV because I wasn't nearly the god he thought himself to be. I've disliked him strongly ever since.

I also very much dislike Ryan Newman (NASCAR driver) for much of the same reason. He is such a whiner in interviews after he crashes and can't take the blame for anything. Suck it up, man!

Oh, boy, that feels good to vent I'm with ya, Who Dey, on spreading some bad vibes around. Afterall, you can't be passionate about something without strong positive and negative feelings. Right?

Isn't an air of cocky self confidence what we want in a field leader?...don't we all want a quarterback with a swagger who thinks he is a god on the field?...when did that become a bad thing in a quarterback?...Favre is from the Bobby Lane school of QB's...had he been a Bear, and the Bears has a title to show for him...would it be different?

Re: Most Hated Athletes

Kobe Bryant is on my list, ball hogger. I'm a big nascar fan, so also Jimmy Johnson, whiner, and Kurt Busch, Big Idiot.

Ball Hogs are fun to watch live...I actually got to see Kobe this year...he had 21 point and 9 assists...it just so happens that his teamates felt like getting open that day. I rather see him get his 40 points personally...

Sure.... If you win.... However, when doing a post-game press conference after throwing 5 picks, 4 of which were the result of poor decision making on your part... Why don't you show a little humility instead of blaming your teammates?

cause that just don't sell papers... ...I think once you have that type of mentality, you would have trouble saying its really you...look at Peyton Manning...a class quarterback...he had the same problem after getting bounce this year... I rather go to war with the gunslinger on myside, than the humble man...but that's me...

Jeff Gordon gets tons of endorsemnts... But everytime I hear a NASCAR fan comment on who they like and who they don't... every one seems to hate Jeff Gordon.
Is it just not "cool" to like Jeff Gordon? I mean someone has to like him because he gets so much attention... Don't they?

Just to clarify things... I in no way ever said I hated Brett Farve. I think he is overrated.
I HATE Ray Lewis.
