Forbes’ Most Disliked Sports Figures: Let’s Agree To Disagree
Last week, Forbes Magazine, through E-Poll surveys, polled its readers and compiled a top 10 list of the most disliked people in sports. I was confused at first why it was Forbes and not, say, Sports Illustrated executing such a poll. I mean, these are sports figures we’re talking about, isn’t ESPN’s magazine better equipped? Forbes may not be the foremost expert on sports, but flip through any issue of their magazine or click on any page of their web site … dudes know a lot about hateable personalities.

The 50 Most Controversial NFL Players
Of the 1,500-some-odd players in the NFL, there are those chosen few who get 90 percent of the headlines. They’re not always the best players, but sometimes they’re the loudest. And in almost every case, they’re the guys on the police blotter.
In the grand tradition of CBS Sportsline’s annual rankings of the top 50 NFL players, we present the top 50 most misbehaving, irritating and downright ruckus-causing players in the league.
And note, we purposefully excluded Michael Vick and Pacman Jones from the list because it would have been far too easy to put them on top. They’re both also not on a team right now.
