I love you, always forever

I find I rarely cheer for full on teams in sports anymore, but rather for or against certain athletes. I don't watch sports as often anymore, so this list is much smaller than it would have been a few years ago and only involves three sports.

All-Time Top 10 Most Despised Athletes (team they played on when I most hated him)
  1. John Elway, QB, Denver Broncos - so vastly overrated it isn't funny. Career QB Rating: 79.9
  2. Warren Sapp, DL, Tampa Bay Buccaneers - ran his mouth and was a cheap shot artist
  3. Karl Malone, PF, Utah Jazz - Dirty player who also happened to be an idiot
  4. Roger Clemens, P, New York Yankees - arrogant ass and I hope he ends up in jail and not Bonds
  5. Shaquille O'Neal, C, Entire Career - not skilled, not funny, and a complete idiot
  6. Bill Romanowski, LB, Denver Broncos - a horrible human being
  7. John Rocker, P, Atlanta Braves - just wow
  8. Michael Irvin, WR, Dallas Cowboys - I hated all those Cowboys teams only because of him
  9. Shannon Sharpe, TE, Broncos - more annoying as a player than commentator, and he is really annoying as a commentator
  10. Bill Laimbeer C, Detroit Pistons - just a miserable human being

Today's athletes I always cheer against in the NBA and NFL:

NBA
  • Carmelo Anthony - Too pouty early in NBA career
  • Carlos Boozer - Dicked over his blind owner
  • Vince Carter - Attitude
  • Adam Morrison - Chews tobacco
  • Josh McRoberts - How is he even in the NBA?
  • Shaquille O'Neal - Annoying
  • Chris Paul - Nut puncher
  • Zach Randolph - Same reason everyone else dislikes him
  • Eric Snow - Would rather lose and score a lot than win and not score
  • Ben Wallace - Way overrated, not his fault
  • Hakim Warrick - Goes back to his college days
NFL
  • Jake Delhomme - I blame this on Carolina fans
  • Chris Henry - Moron
  • DeSean Jackson - Dropping the ball before crossing the endzone
  • Chad Johnson - You lost me the past few years
  • Larry Johnson - Hits women in his spare time ... a lot
  • Eli Manning - Vastly overrated whiner
  • Donovan McNabb - Baby and choke artist
  • Dan Orlovsky - Dude ran out of the back of endzone and didn't even know
  • Tony Romo - Too much of a circus
  • Jeremy Shockey - There is a reason your teams do better without you
  • Kellen Winslow Jr. - He's a soldier
Tennis (I will limit this severely)
  • Lindsey Davenport - pumpkin head
  • Lleyton Hewitt - many reasons, most notable: once blamed being called for multiple foot faults (something he is notorious for) on the fact that the official and his opponant were black
  • Dinara Safina - shockingly, her brother is awesome
  • Patty Schnyder - Ugh

Dinara is much better now - better than her brother! But I admit, he is much cuter.
