Your Least Favorite Professional Athlete

We've all got someone out there that we all absolutely hate, hopefully for a reason other than the uniform they wear. So as the title asks, who is your least favorite pro athlete and why?

I am absolutely disgusted by Jason Giambi. Here we have a guy who knowingly took steroids, which is bad enough, but he never openly admitted to it. The only way it came out was because his testimony to a grand jury got leaked. So then he started to have health problems and his play deteriorated to the point where a lot of retarded Yankee fans (Not any Yankee fans that post on here, you guys are cool ) wanted his contract voided because he 'cheated'. So the next year he allegedly gets off the juice, and has a monster season, and wins a comeback player of the year award for a self inflicted problem. No one made the fool take roids, he did it on his own, and was rewarded for having a bounce back year. (Which to me was unacceptable) All of a sudden, the same fans that wanted him gone and his contract torn up are the same ones that love the guy again and want him to stay. Obvious hypocrisy. In the end, the media wants to play him up as the poster boy for 'you don't have to do steroids to be successful' but I mean really, we would have never known had the guy's statements not been leaked. It isn't like he came out and admitted to wrong doing at any point. And that's why I hate the guy, because the media takes it entirely too easy on him and plays him out to be a bit of a hero when all of the health and baseball related problems he had were his own fault.





The question isn't:

Who's Next?
Who's First?
Who's There?

It isn't even Who's Left?

The question is, who gives a shit?
