Top 10 Biggest Jerk Athletes
Forget what a d-bag he obviously is. Tiger is not half the golfer Jack Nicklaus was. Compare total performance in majors, not just victories where he still clearly falls short. He also has all the signs of steroid use. Look at pictures of his head and physique when in college and early in his pro career, then look at his body change over time. Reminds me of Barry Bonds, only not a real athlete as he is just a golfer!
I believe he was into drugs, he is a liar, he is a cheat in life and in golf, and if he signed the back of the check from the 2013 Masters, a lot of people would call him a thief as well. By the rules, he was disqualified. He is a low life and not any kind of role model for kids. Ban him from golf forever and strip him of all trophies, titles, and awards.
It's unfortunate that this creep from Texas couldn't excel in his chosen profession without rigging the game. Think of all the honest competitors who were cheated out of years of practice and honest effort. Even worse, after cheating and lying his way to the top, he had the arrogance to assume he would never be caught and actually threatened his closest friends to keep silent. He even lied to his mother for years! It must take him a quart of whiskey to get to sleep at night.
If I were in his position, I would have blown my brains out by now, which means you can add "coward" to the list of his many achievements, dubious and laughable though most of them are. Lance, you are the No. 1 lowest athlete (after somebody like Aaron Hernandez) who has ever disgraced a world competition. Why are you still walking the Earth? You're done as a human being. Go try disgracing some other life form, you ruthless scumbag!
Ben Roethlisberger is a huge jerk. I ran into him at a gas station near Pittsburgh airport. A man and his young son asked Roethlisberger, "Are you Ben Roethlisberger?" His response was astounding, "What do you think? Do you teach your kid to approach strangers that look like a celebrity? Of course, I'm Ben Roethlisberger, and no, I'm not signing a friggin' autograph for your kid."
I couldn't believe what a jerk he was. The kid told his dad in the parking lot, "I didn't even want his autograph, Dad. What's his problem? It's not like he's Peyton Manning or something."
So glad he isn't a cowboy anymore. I feel sorry for any team desperate to pay that much money to ruin their team. And to the Vick haters, dogs fight. I hate dogs, so I really don't care. Hell, they were his, not yours. He is a hell of a quarterback, even after y'all locked him up for no good reason.
Who cares about this guy? He's old news. Completely forgettable.
He's a me, myself, and I type of person. A self-centered jackass. He cares only about himself. A legend in his own mind.
There are a lot of athletes and coaches that are dirtbags. The top of the list has to be the murderers (Simpson, Hernandez, Carruth, etc.). The rest of the top ten are subjective choices. Unfortunately, there are a plethora of coaches that "fit the bill" (Meyer, Petrino, Kiffin, Kelly, etc.). These guys are not "leaders of men" if they can't be good people.
As much as I think Tiger Woods deserves consideration for #1 jerk, how can you not put O.J. #1 after killing two people and all that has transpired since? Although one commonality between O.J. and Tiger was the relentless media campaign to make them both look like good people. Nothing could be further from the truth.
LeBron has every call go his way. Every time he drives to the basket, if he does not score, he is crying to the refs. Every timeout, he spends more time crying to the refs than he does in the team huddle. He fouls ferociously on defense yet is never whistled for a foul.
He has great talents, but when they are losing, he often fouls to hurt. He tried to push Livingston several rows into the stands against Golden State in the 2015 Finals. He flops like a fish and finally had to pay the price when he flopped into a cameraman and cut his head.
When he wins, it is all about LeBron leading the team. Then when he loses, he wants to leave or blame the team. He sucks, for all the talent and steroid strength he has. He turns the ball over more than Jason Couch in bowling, and he is supposed to be a better passer than Magic?
A-Rod is a cheater and is full of himself, used steroids, is overpaid, and I don't like him either. But he does sign autographs now and is trying to change his image.
I got his autograph in Toronto, and he wasn't as much of an ass in person as I thought he'd be.
Ruined the sport of baseball with his cheating and skewed stats.
Douche. Cheat. About as much personality as a piece of dirt. Classic mimbo!
Was a mediocre quarterback at best, and the media overrated him, which already made me dislike him. Then he brutally killed a bunch of dogs. Don't even defend that with a "well, people hunt. It's the same thing." No, you eat what you kill when hunting, and you don't torture it like this sick freak did. He should've gotten the death penalty, and any team that signs him when he gets out should be boycotted.
He should be in jail for the rest of his life. He should feel the same pain those helpless dogs felt. It disgusts me that any team would hire him.
I feel so badly for the dog he has now. I can't imagine the life that poor dog has. Michael Vick disgusts me.
Excellent tennis player, but needs lessons in sportsmanship.
Absolute idiot. Not only does he rack up penalty minutes and is near the top every year, he consistently has the most penalty minutes against him. He trash talks, fights only when the other guy is smaller than him, and breaks and bends the rules. He even had a rule made for him.
He deserves to be number one. He isn't higher only because nobody cares about hockey.
I was dying when he got sued for farting in his doctor's face. Big Baby Antonio.
And to think, some thought he should be drafted ahead of Peyton Manning. Even more amusing is that he went number two.
He's the biggest flop in history. I detest thieves.
It's all about Randy. Just ask him. Great player when he wants to play, if the play is his.
Straight cash, homie! Ha, he can be a jerk, but you can't deny how good he is.
Mike Tyson gets a pass from me. He came up through extremely difficult situations in life, and people have taken advantage of him all his life. Only Cus D'Amato gave a damn about him as a human being. He did his time for whatever happened with the girl that went to his room (expecting milk and cookies?) and never whined about it. He seems like he's trying to do something with his life after boxing, and dirtbags like King are done with him.
Robin Givens deserves honorable mention for being a complete jerk related to an athlete. She and her mother are complete low-lifes who sucked money and life from naïve Mike Tyson.
Back when I was a kid and he played for the Pirates, I went to their spring training camp to get an autograph from my favorite player Barry Bonds. When I asked for one, he just laughed and said no. I went home and ripped all his posters off my wall and hated him from that day on. All I wanted was an autograph from my (then) favorite sports hero.
He's close enough to the all-time HR record he doesn't have to cheat to break it now. Lots of folks may not recognize him now when they see him play. He's slimmed down a bit from not using HGH. The Giants also had to order new caps for him that are a little smaller.
That fight with the Pacers says it all.
He admitted to playing dirty after retiring. He didn't have sportsmanship, only brutality.
It was perfect that he ended up playing with the Raiders.
This guy sickens me. He was a horribly dirty player. On top of that, he injected live goat cells into himself to get stronger. Disgusting.
There's a fine line between playing hard and trying to maim someone. I hope he never gets in the Hall of Fame.
