Many of you that have been around for a while may remember the 'Best Of' threads on different areas of music back in the day. While I'm not discounting that series coming back, here's your chance to help decide the different side of the debate: Most Overrated. This is the eighth thread in the series, most overrated athlete.

 

In this thread, nominate three choices for most overrated athletes of all time. This can be for any sport at any point, including baseball. Any person nominating more than three will only have their first three selected. Furthermore, it's pointless to nominate someone who has already been named earlier - they don't get points for being brought up more than once (yet).

 

With that, my three nominations:

OJ Simpson

David Wright

Nolan Ryan

Derek Jeter

Tom Brady

T.O.

David Eckstein

Joe Namath

george foreman

annika sorenstam

anyone in the WNBA

anyone in the WNBA

They're rated?

Michelle Wie

Sergio Garcia

Greg Norman

Derek Jeter

David Wright

Kevin Garnett.

Josh Beckett and AJ Burnett.

Since my choices (Wright, Eckstein, Jeter) have been taken, I'll go with these:

 

Allen Iversen

Shaun Alexander

Andy Roddick

Stephen Jackson (of the STL Rams)

Dwyane Wade

Johnny Damon

Danika Patrick

Dale Jr

Keyshawn Johnson

Eli Manning

 

[those of you picking Jeter need some help.]

Dwyane Wade

hahaha YES! I was waiting for someone to mention him.

 

Also:

 

Sidney Crosby

Jonathon Cheechoo

Roberto Luongo

Dale Earnhardt Jr. Hands down.

Dwyane Wade

 

I thought this was a serious poll. Don't just add someone for the sake of adding them.

 

Flash as overrated? lmao.

Dwyane Wade

You hate the Heat and Wade and cant get over Dallas choking in the Finals. We get it, now get over it.

 

I just dont see how someone who carries their team to the championship in their third season can be overrated.

Cristiano Ronaldo

Chris Chambers

Keyshaun Johnson

Dwyane Wade

hahaha YES! I was waiting for someone to mention him.

 

 

thats not surprising... hey look over there its hockey.

Dwyane Wade

Whatever you do, don't breathe on him.

Mentioning Flash as overrated is equal to saying Michael Jordan was overrated, what a joke, now Dirk Nowitzki IS overrated!

This is not the who do you hate the most topic.

I can't believe no one has mentioned this name...MICHAEL VICK! This guy could easily be the most overrated player in the NFL right now. The Falcons will never win a championship with him as QB.

Jason Varitek is very overrated. He's a good team leader, but come on the guy hit like .255 and everyone praises him. He also isn't too great on D.

 

 

 

Dontrelle Willis (sorry guys)

I can't believe no one has mentioned this name...MICHAEL VICK! This guy could easily be the most overrated player in the NFL right now. The Falcons will never win a championship with him as QB.

great point...peyton manning is there too...everyone thinks he is god...til the playoffs roll around
