One reason we
find it so easy to ‘hate’ sports stars is because we envy their success. When
they take what they have for granted we become angry that they don’t appreciate
what they have.
There is no
better example of this than Tiger Woods. Just a year ago he was the world’s top
golfer and richest athlete; he had a beautiful wife, two lovely kids and tons of
endorsement deals.
But after the
now infamous Thanksgiving night crash, Tiger entered a professional and
personal freefall. As more and more of his marital indiscretions were revealed,
the public became angry with Tiger for his cheating and philandering ways.
2. Kobe Bryant
Don't be fooled by jersey sales. Kobe might
sell a lot of jerseys but that doesn't make him any less hated. Expect jersey
sales to increase whenever somebody changes their number, it's just common
sense.
However, recently he has the gay community up
his ass after his homosexual slur he made toward a ref. Also, there was a rape
allegation in which he proceeded to bring Shaq down with him. This man cheats
on his wife, rapes women, and trys to be the next jordan. Pretty sure that
will get you hated by the general public.
3. Lebron James
Lebron James is one
of the most gifted basketball players we have ever seen, but the man could not
carry himself any worse. James seemingly had it all as a Cleveland Cavalier,
with the exception of a championship ring, until the fame got to him.
Lebron decided to “Take his talents to south beach” as
he made the ultimate spectacle of himself with “The Decision” to join up with
Wade and Bosh in Miami, leaving the city of Cleveland and their loyal fans
in the dust. It is clear from the
votes as well as common sense, that almost everyone that doesn’t live in Miami
prays and hopes that Lebron never gets a ring.
Kris Humphries is somewhat of a newcomer to the
most hated athlete's scene. Unlike most of the other stars on these lists, he's
an average player. He's gained notoriety by becoming engaged, married, then
divorces from Kim Kardashian, all while being taped by the E! Channel.
As you
can imagine, these types of things don't go over well in athletics. During his
first game of the season, Humphries was greeted with a beautiful chorus of boos
from the Madison Square Garden crowd. I guess there's nothing like being the
most hated man to grace the floor of the most famous arena in the world.
