    The hate on Kris is dumb. Brett Favre should be top 5.

    I have no idea why Kris deserves a top 5 spot.

    Can someone briefly fill me in on who #3 and #4 are and why they deserve the hate?

    Disliked by fans* I would like to see top 10 disliked by fellow players....this particular poll is stupid because fans rarely interact consistently with players and give opinions based on tabloid newspapers.

    Fellow players, however, get to know each other much better...I'm sure there's a poll out there on players disliking other players....read it a few months ago...

    Kris Humphries on that list is a joke.

    I guess somebody believed that Kardashian B.S. about how he kept making fun of her being fat?

    Seems like sports fans wouldn't care.

    Why would people hate Kris humphries

    I think by "sports fans" they mean housewives that watch that stupid Kardashian reality show.

    Because 50% of those surveyed are female.

    Because Ben was not on a reality show and did not go through a very public divorce with Kim Kardashian.

    Where is Roethlisburger and Favre.

    I HATE playing the race card, but seeing how Roethlisburger (and he should be #1 at that) is the scummiest of scum and isn't on this list is ridiculous.

    What is the worst on this list:
    Having Dog Fights
    Cheating on your Wife
    Leaving your 1st NBA team, to play w/ your buddy.
    Raping 1 girl
    Raping at LEAST 2 girls
    Divorcing Kim Kardashian

    Suh is a Defensive Tackle for the Detroit Lions. He pulled a Kevin Love in the NFL. He's had multiple fines and things for dirty play.

    Burress accidentally shot himself in the foot and went to jail for awhile. He's a wide receiver for the Jets.

    I thought people laugh at you for shooting yourself not dislike you.

    I wonder if Favre and Roethlisburger were black would they still not make the top 10.

    It's weird, I don't dislike any player on that list, not fan, but what is the point of disliking anyone after Vick. I respect all of them for being really good/entertaining players/competitors and they do not seem like they are all that bad.

    I have yet to find one person who dislikes Kris Humphries, unless they are a fan or admirer of Kim Kardashian or her rump roast. Though on youtube, I've seen a few guys tear Humphries to shred, mostly gay or black guys (probably some of her deluded fans) for no reason.

    Kris Humphries is little socially inept, while most of the stuff he says or talks about is probably comparable to average American 20 something year old male. There's unique in a good way or bad way to dislike about him. It's completely irrational.

    Pretty much every man on that list is a man of color, even Kurt is little bit on the red side.

    Even if they were average or run of the mill guys, I'd still date most of them, I wouldn't feel like my life was threatened or he was geniune b@stard or something.

    What is common with all the guys bigtexxx commented on?

    Racism really runs deep. People might not act out and out racist, but I think we can guess what they feel inside.

    The fact that big ben rapes two girls, but hey who cares, boys will be boys. Favre mails out dong shots, but hey its Brett Favre. Tom Brady leaves his pregnant GF, but who cares about that.

    Why the heck is Kris H on there. Who the heck knew who kris was, and Kim was one who pretty much dumped him.

    Weird. I like Suh. Burress is a non-factor.
