[soleoneyez]

Calbert Cheaney
Don't know why but he was one of my favorite players growing up. The lefty jumper was money lol

[the pga tour]

@ at that 'Foyle vs Stoudemire' video! Amare really was a freak before the surgery man.He's still a beast though.

 

[wildkycat]

i had originally tried to think of players not on my teams that i liked, but couldn't. i think we all have players who suck on your teams, but for somereason, you find reasons to like them, while others you hate (Jared Carter.)

Ryan Freel. i like him cuz of stuff like this:

but really, he sucks.

man, he stunk. but come thru the lane...you were getting hammered.

hecould knock down an open jumper too.

i liked Shagari too...

and i always found myself being a Jason LaRue apologist.

Now we know who was behind all those Calbert Cheaney > Kobe Bryant threads that were rampanta few years ago!

 

[desertdunk 34]

bo outlaw - his heart and hustle were the main reasons I love this guy

 

[Retroballer]

Phil Plantier, him being traded from the red sox to the padres then to the astros is the reason i like the astros today

[cafinest23]

Quentin Richardson
Peter Warrick
Juan Dixon
I guess I can put my favorite of all-time Lamar Odom because he never lived up to his potential

 

[melomandnvnuggets]

He was a @#%@#@% beast in college but now he is just a scrub or victim of bad coaching/not giving him a chance to do anything. I still refuse to reallyacknowledge that he is just another scrub in the nba, I'm hoping something happens for him but I don't see it happening

 

[651akathepaul]

^^^ That reminds me..I liked what's his face who was Bibby's teammate at AZ..

Miles Simon?

aaron williams

I'm slowly starting to realize Tyrus Thomas sucks, but I still like him.

I came in here since I thought I was the only dude who liked Wally...but then I noticed that 2 out of your 3 players were white. You know how hard it is to create any kind of list of nba players for any person where the majority is white people.

I like Wally cuz I find it to be hilarious to root for him. He's just so damn white, would shoot on every touch if he had the green light, and sometimes makes those superstar type shots which makes it even funnier. I was talking to my bro the other day on how his teammates must love going out with him cause he's THE white boy of the team. Changes situations from dealing with cops, snow bunnies who are scared of 6 foot 8 black guys, etc.

thats pretty much why I like him

Pat Garrity is awesome too.

Edit:
Sam Perkins
Scot Pollard
Austin Croshere (is he even in the league still?)
Jason Smith
Robert Swift

Damon Jones
Antoine Walker

 

[goldmember]

Well, you like someone (nh) because they're good at something right? ...lol


Anyway, popeye jones just cause he looks funny..

 

[dako akong otin]

NFL: was a big Jim Everett fan (LA Rams homer)... as a kid, i always wanted him to be better than Joe Montana

had like 2 great years with the rams then sucked after that (i think had 1 probowl year with the saints).. was known more for attacking Jim Rome

NBA: AC Green used to be my favorite Laker for the reason that the other kids always liked Magic, Worthy, Kareem... and I sucked in basketball exceptgrabbing rebounds, lol

MLB: Eh, no one knows who he is... Brian Downing is my favorite baseball player.. has like a .270 career avg. and just over 250 career HR's in a spanof like 17 years

I just liked him because every year, he was alwaysin the Angels starting line up

LF, C, DH ... until he went to theTexas Rangers. If i find a throwback Downing Angels jersey, its copped
