for what they’ve done football related, Aaron Rodgers. I despise him and McCarthy after the 2011 playoffs. Giants crushed them 37-20. Would have been a lot more, but the refs were terrible. After the game, those two gave the Giants no credit, and said the Packers were the better team and beat themselves. As if nobody had just watched the game. Glad McCarthy wasn’t hired by the Giants

I think the guy you're looking for is Darren Sharper.
But hearing Darren Sharper sing "I love New York" on the sideline during the Eli 4 pick (3 pick 6 game) in 2007 immediately put him on the list. And then learning about him being a serial rapist makes him top the list for me.
My dislike for Owens is mainly from his Cowboys tenure.
For players I dislike, Cliff Harris might be a close second. You should hear about him taunting Lynn Swann and Roy Gerela before and during Super Bowl X; Jack Lambert responded to that by slamming Harris to the turf.
NFL- oj, aaron hernandez, darren sharper. with unfortunately Dave megget not far behind
RG top 3 most hated-
1)Donovan Mcnabb- always hurt us but picking up the phone one the ny giant sidelines after another 1st down scramble late in a horrendous playoff loss cinched it. Always hated him
2) Deasean Jackson- he has made his career vs us. Really overrated player but def a good deep threat but against us with the punt return for the td and seemingly toasting us a will over the years and always slow rolling it into the end zone.
3) Jason Witten- The stats against the giants tell it all but really it seemed worse. Anything he ever wanted to do in his blessed life he did against the giants. Killed us more than any one single player ever,.
Those three each hold the distinction of at one point being the most hated man in America. Kaepernick still might be. I can't think of any players on that level.
not even as much for him as a player, but all that religious preacher bullshit he used to spew.
Amongst other gems, Reggie White once said homosexuality was a sin that’s been allowed to run rampant. I also heard him once say in an interview AIDS is God’s way of punishing gays for their sins.
I’ve never understood why his bullshit was largely overlooked by the media. Some media sources like The NY Times ripped him for it.
I guess that was still of an era when someone saying things like that was met by many people with an eye roll, nothing more.
most of the others guys I considered and that were mentioned are guys that everybody knew was a POS. We all knew Dawkins and Romonowksi were dirty. We all knew DeSean was a wannabee gangster punk.
But McNabb was promoted as such a "nice guy" and was one of the faces of the league with Chunky Soup commercials on TV all the time.
Those three each hold the distinction of at one point being the most hated man in America. Kaepernick still might be. I can't think of any players on that level.
Kaepernick doesn't belong on your list. He didn't do anything illegal and he probably has just as many fans of what he represents as he does detractors.

But hey, it's a personal list, so whatever.
Everyone has different reasons for disliking players. I happen to think it's ridiculous to put players on a hated list because they committed a criminal activity. I pick players based upon playing. Who am I to tell somebody that they cannot dislike somebody because they killed a pregnant woman and stuffed her in the trunk of a car. When I think OJ, I can only think of Chris Rock's stand up. So I understand.
some good choices already: Andre Waters (RIP), Bill Romanowski, Rodney Harrison, and Erik Williams of the Cowboys ( extremely talented, but dirty and after the car accident very dirty player).
We talk about other teams dirty players - we've had our share. Jumbo Elliott had a good repetoire of dirty tricks. Rolled up on the back of Russell Maryland's legs, intentional, unnecessary, and near the end of the play
Incredibly dirty player, got me so angry when we played them back in 2010 and he ripped Steve Smith to the ground by his helmet. Was karmic as hell to watch him get his ass beat by Andre Johnson later that same season. Johnson was a noted choir boy/high character guy before the fight, but Finnegan was so widely hated that the fight did nothing to hurt that rep haha. Sit down Courtland - ( New Window )
My blood would boil when Smith would take his helmet off in end zone after a TD and they would show a staff person putting the ball in an equipment bag after he scored a TD.
Irvin pushed off more than any WR in history and never had a penalty called against him. Plus he was a total ass in the community and a big time drug user. Terrible human being.
I used to live in Dallas Fort Worth area (1981-1983). The Cowboys I met were pretty cool (e.g., Ed Jones).
The only one who was kind of annoying was Butch Johnson. We'd be at a club and everyone would clear the dance floor so he could do his stupid TD dance. It was harmless...but annoying.
most of the others guys I considered and that were mentioned are guys that everybody knew was a POS. We all knew Dawkins and Romonowksi were dirty. We all knew DeSean was a wannabee gangster punk.

He was a fucking asshole.
I agree, McNabb was an off the radar POS, until after he retired.
suggest Jack Tatum- he paralyzed a guy! (Darryl Stingley if I remember correctly)
Not sure how "intentional" it was. Seemed par for the course for that era, a violent hit that was more tragic than on purpose from what I could tell.
The Burt/Marshall hits on Montana were worse, the intent to clearly annihilate a player. The closest thing to those guys know is Clay Matthews, and none of his hits except maybe that one against Wilson in the 2014 NFC Championship come close.
Arrested in 1996 in motel room with hooker, cocaine and other drug paraphernalia.
In 1998 fought his teammate Everett McIver using scissors and caused a deep cut in McIver’s neck. Jerry Jones buried this story.
In 2011 Irvin settled a sexual assault lawsuit out of court.
dirtier Burt hit was when he was a 49er and hit Jeff Hostetler in the knees. The Giants always felt that was intentional and went after Montana extra hard in that game because of it.
Yes, if you watch the game broadcast, Madden mentions that
suggest Jack Tatum- he paralyzed a guy! (Darryl Stingley if I remember correctly)
Get a clue. The Burt/Montasna hit was nothing more than a shove. Blame the concrete known as the GIants Stadium turf at that time for the concussion. Tee Marshall /Montana hit was a classic example of relentless pursuit. Montana ducked LT and Marshall was coming full steam. Tough shit.

Totally agree with DonnieD89 and Jack Tatum. The guy was a total asshole as a person who nicknamed himself “The Assassin” and then went out and maimed and effectively killed Darryl Stingley. And afterwards he showed very little remorse.
He wins this award going away.
RE: Yes, if you watch the game broadcast, Madden mentions that
He says that he barely recognized Montana when he saw him out of uniform the week before the game because he was so skinny.
And, of course, it's always funny when Niners fans whine about the Marshall hit when they have nothing to say about Burt diving at Hostetler's knee.
You're right, I rewatched the hit (18 seconds in the video) and by that angle it's one of the softest hits I've ever seen in my life. Helmet directly into a man's upper back is only an issue if you're a wimp QB under 230 lbs.
If anything Montana should probably feel responsible since letting Marshall land his helmet onto his back was probably responsible for him getting CTE. Probably got whiplashed between his shoulder blades and then the fall on the ground.
Marshall's brain had no chance. I mean the guy did a silly thing like apologize to Montana's wife after the game. I mean, why do that unless your brain was rattled? It's not like he did anything wrong.
If it makes anyone feel better, Montana still has many aches and pains to this day. Karma got him for what he did to Leonard Marshall. Even I have to sit here and acknowledge it.
I fucking hate the Iggles. Absolutely hated McNabb and DeSean.
Not that I bothered to note their handles, but the BBI posters who were pulling for the Philthy Green Birds in the Supe never made any sense to me. And I’ve been at way too many Giants home games which have ended with the knuckle dragging fans from the City of Brotherly Brawls singing that fucking song and flapping their arms. Man, I fucking hate the Iggles.
You still haven't found a Niners board to cry to, huh?
The Marshall hit on Montana was vicious but not dirty. The big problem for Montana was that Marshall was going full steam and Montana jumped backward to avoid LT. Marshall was going hard, but he wasn't out to cripple Montana.
Wikipedia - "Tatum had said he attempted to visit Stingley in the hospital, but was rebuffed by Stingley's family."
ccording to Madden, "It was something that ate on him for his whole life."[4] According to Stingley in his 1983 autobiography, Happy To Be Alive, Tatum never made any effort to apologize or to see him after the incident.[
They were supposed to meet once in a television interview, but Stingley backed out when he found out Tatum was promoting his new autobiography during the interview.[8] The two never spoke with one another after that day"
I agree with you about Bednarik, when he slammed Frank Gifford down headfirst on the ground I actually believe that incident helped kill Frank in later years, serious concussion deliberately intended cheapshot...
The NFL's has to be OJ Simpson
For me the guy I hate more than anyone, ever, has to be Brian Dawkins. A close second to that would be Ezekiel Elliott.
Agreed. Waters was Brian Dawkins without the talent and twice as many cheap shots.
Two complete scumbags.
That was rather benign to some of the other BS he did, not necessarily against us.

TO, but the sniff sniff incident in 07 made it easier.
Did he get a ring?
So many dicks have played in the nfl
McNabb,,,Prime time ,,,
can we include coaches ?
Colin Kaepernick
Michael Vick
Those three each hold the distinction of at one point being the most hated man in America. Kaepernick still might be. I can't think of any players on that level.
And I have know doubt it was done to collect a bounty offered by that fucking piece of trash coach of his, Buddy Ryan

Between roiding it and cheap shots, yep.
Once the NFL made that move illegal, all of the sudden that cocksucker wasn't so great, was he?
But McNabb was promoted as such a "nice guy" and was one of the faces of the league with Chunky Soup commercials on TV all the time.
He was a fucking asshole.

DeSean Jackson, 2nd.
I don’t know man, we don’t think you’re THAT bad...
Tony Romo.
Deshaun Jackson.
Mark Gastinaeu. I hate showboats and he was the cream of the crop.

Elliot is starting to make a strong case for himself.
i dont even know if he would be allowed in the NFL now the way he played
dirty fucker
Sit down Courtland - ( New Window )
I can't decide which
Irvin pushed off more than any WR in history and never had a penalty called against him. Plus he was a total ass in the community and a big time drug user. Terrible human being.

Thanks to some of you for jogging my memory.
Fuck Ray Lewis. Not much I don't despise about him. The *murder* smoke matched what I'd already thought of him.
This guy would have gotten 5-10 years if he people on the street the way he went after folks in the NFL.
Extremely cocky and arrogant. If you lived in the area as I did you would get a lot of it.
In retropsect, back in the 80s there was probably two players I'd pay to see: LT and Cunningham.
Yep...
He beat out the likes of Brett Favre, Leonard Marshall, Mark Chmura, Jim Burt, etc.
Or Frank Clark. Or lots of other people.
But McNabb was promoted as such a "nice guy" and was one of the faces of the league with Chunky Soup commercials on TV all the time.

Jack Tatum
Lyle Alzedo
Conrad Dobler
Second this
Tray tables secured and Joe's ready for takeoff!
Folks forget how small Montana really was, and he had lost a lot of weight I believe rehabbing for a back injury.
Burt was the strongest Giant on the team.
And, of course, it's always funny when Niners fans whine about the Marshall hit when they have nothing to say about Burt diving at Hostetler's knee.
