10 Most Unpopular Athletes
Newser ^ | 02/06/2013 | By John Johnson,

Posted on 02/07/2013 11:20:30 AM PST by Responsibility2nd

(Newser) – The new Nielsen/E-Poll survey of the most disliked athletes in America has the not-so-surprising name of Lance Armstrong at the top of the list, reports Forbes. More surprising is that Notre Dame star and soon-to-be-NFL'er Manti Te'o tied Armstrong with a measly 15% approval rating. Even if he was a hoax victim, Teo's fake girlfriend saga has taken a toll on his image.

More details on the unlucky 10 here.

Surprisingly Kurt Busch made the top 10 over his bratty, whiny kid brother, Kyle.

Should have just stated Nascar's Busch Brothers.

Yeah, and they probably can't spell either.
But this list is BS anyway. Where's Barry Bonds, Ray Lewis ... and a thousand others?

LOL on Ron Artest.

He was here in Indy for 4 years, apparently left behind a legendary number of offspring....

“Wait, why isn’t this looser on the list?”

Are “golfers” to be considered athletes? Or....are they just athletic supporters?

PS: Nice shooting! :-)
