GQ's 10 Most Hated Athletes

[emynd]

Y???all see GQ???s 10 Most Hated Athletes yet? Shit is funny. Kobe is on there (duh) and, not surprisingly, TO takes #1. Some of the others are interesting, too. The best part though is from the ???5 Who Just Missed the Cut??? segment about Rasheed Wallace. Peep the blurb:

In Portland, Rasheed, the Blazers??? best player, pissed off teammates by getting kicked out of games so often. Along with Bonzi Wells, he would at times engage in less-than-professional behavior as well, making headlines on one occasion for playfully firing a basketball across a practice court and directly into the nuts of Blazers center Ruben Boumtje Boumtje. ???Bonzi and Rasheed ran off the court laughing. They thought that was the funniest thing,??? says Jason Quick, of the Portland Oregonian. Freed of Bonzi???s influence, Wallace won a ring in Detroit.

I???ve been laughing hysterically in my cubicle for three minutes now.

The entry on Danny Fortson also cracked me up...

Fortson may believe that playing in blowouts is beneath him: According to one sportswriter, during the fourth quarter of a game in which the Mavs were enjoying a huge lead, he disappeared to take a dump and never came back. Don Nelson and Jerry Colangelo have assailed him in the media for thuggery; reportedly, Forton has tried to take out players??? knees in practice. But beat writers say he???s a nice guy and a great interview: ???I don???t think he???s the Antichrist by any stretch,??? says one. ???David Gargill and Nate Penn

Man, crotch and poop humor. Really going for the gold on this Friday.

Last November, after being pulled over outside Phoenix, Busch said to the officers on duty, ???Aren???t you supposed to be directing traffic somewhere???? When the officers asked Busch to perform a field sobriety test, he said, ???I???m not doing this gay test!??? and was summarily cuffed and arrested (though later released).

classic!

Did Shawn Bradley make this list? (I can't get the link to work) If not, then it's a travesty that the terd didn't make the cut.

Dood, the Praying Mantis deserves your pity, not your hate.

Luckily he retired to the delight of Mavericks fans worldwide.

True story.
When I was 12 yrs. old, the Sixers came to Atlantic City for training camp. Our local P.A.L coordinated a meet and greet with the players. The two players that I had met were Tim Perry and Shawn Bradley. Mr. Perry was mad cool. He signed my basketball and was very polite.

On the other hand, dickface (Shawn Bradley) was acting really cocky. This was the same year he was a no. 1 pick in the draft. He was being real corny that day. Plus his girl was wack. Skinny and pasty-faced, looking like she was on the verge of the death.

So, I have nothing but hatt for that dickhead.

the dumbest shit i've heard from Greg Anthony's mouth:

Shaquille O???Neal was the focal point in Phil Jackson???s vaunted triangle offense, but Kobe???s refusal to take a backseat to the Diesel sunk what could???ve been the most dominant basketball dynasty ever. ???I???ve talked to Scottie Pippen and Michael,??? says Anthony, ???and if Michael Jordan played with Shaq, he would have found a way to let Shaq be the man.???

what kind of biased, dumbass speculation is that?!

I like nummer 6 - a dude I never heard of before:

We give you America???s biggest basshole. As one rival puts it, Iaconelli, a loud, brash New Jerseyite, has ???disgraced??? the predominantly southern, rural, Christian sport of angling. ???When he catches one,??? says celebrated fisherman Denny Brauer, ???you???ve got the fist pumps, the running around the boat, the lying flat on the boat. He???ll stare at the fish, yell at it, point at it. He???ll shake his finger at it.???





...





???Iaconelli is a big-city angler and a product of the street," Schultz adds. ???Our sport should be portrayed more like golf or tennis or sports of that nature."

I can't believe there are fishing jerseys. What sport could possibly have less use for specialised shirts than fishing? Waiders, ok, and those vests with pockets for your lures, that makes sense too. But jersyes? ::liljohn::

 

[Rod_Torfulson]

Thats not a jersey per se, more like just a shirt with a shitload of ads on it. I would say that any activity that allows the wearing of those Teva sandal type shoes can't really be lauded as a great accomplishment. Not to mention a sport where being from New Jersey qualifies you as some sort of outsider badass. Its not like he's from Camden. Maybe I just wish I was a big city angler and a product of the street.

BINGO.

 

[pcmr]

I always thought Hewitt was an asshole??? confirmed(racist to boot)

"The most telling of the many, many (seriously, you wouldn???t believe how willing people were to talk about this guy) Pierzynski anecdotes we heard took place during spring training in 2004. Pierzynski, crouched behind the plate, took a pitch to the groin. Rushing to his aid, trainer Stan Conte asked him how he felt. ???Like this!??? Pierzynski grunted, then savagely kneed Conte in the balls. "



I also love the uncensored nature of GQ in this site

 

[SoulOnIce]

So avid is Schilling???s longing for the spotlight that some of his peers raise doubts about his now legendary turn in the 2004 postseason, when he pitched on an ankle tendon that had been sutured in place. During Game 6, cameras cut repeatedly to the bright red stain on Schilling???s sock. It was blood, right? ???The Diamondbacks people think he definitely doctored that sock,??? says the sportswriter. The ex-teammate laughs: ???All around baseball, people questioned that. It was funny how the stain didn???t spread.???

Jesus. I know the guy can be a jerk, but he fucking pitched
a game with a rubber band holding his tendons in place, and now
they are already trying to smear it?? Say all you want about his
off-field camera hogging actions, but how anybody can question his guts
is beyond me.

dude, im with you. that punk needs to have his name wiped out of any nba stat book. a stain on the game and a complete low point in philadelphia basketball. if he ever sets foot in philly in anything other than a carnival cage he deserves to be tarred and feathered

Is this the same guy that's bringing "extreme" to the game of fishing? I saw on ESPN one guy who, after catching a fish, actually try to break dance on the boat in front of a crowd of people. It was a disgrace.
