Early Birthday Present and Top 10 Hated Athletes

If anybody out there wants to spring for an early birthday present, here is where you can go to buy it. You can get an OSU National Champions ring from ebay. My guess it is probably being sold by the bum Maurice Clarett. How else is the guy going to make a living and pay for his upcoming legal bills. So feel free to go ahead and pick up the ring for me. I would definitely under.

I was also reading something interesting the other day. GQ magazine put out a list of Top 10 most hated athletes. Yes they have great articles in addition to fashion. Some of the names on the list may not surprise you, but certain names will. One that
comes to mind is Phil Mickelson. He comes in at number 8. Phil is treated like the darling of golf. Getting raucous cheers from every gallery. Probably the biggest fan favorite in golf, with the only possible exception being Tiger Woods. Before he won his first major, everybody was pulling for him to get a win. So how is he on the most hated list. Because this list is based on the opinion of players on the tour and reporters who cover the tour. He is hated for being a "fraud", "insincere." One quote states, "Phil Mickelson literally has no friends out there. He annoys everybody." It just goes to show that you don't know much about these athletes other than the public perception. It reminds me of NFL man of the year, Eugene Robinson, getting arrested for soliciting a prostitute the night before the Super Bowl. And this guy was NFL man of the year and married. Here is the list.
10. Lleyton Hewitt (It's tennis, who cares)
9. A.J. Pierzynski
8. Phil Mickelson
7. Bonzi Wells
6. Michael Iaconelli (WHO? Some fisherman, who cares)
5. Kobe Bryant
4. Curt Schilling
3. Kurt Busch
2. Barry Bonds (No Big Surprise)
1. Terrell Owens
