Around SBN: NFL Owners Vote to Change Trade Deadline

Ugliest Player Ever.

All these lists of top player catagories got me thinking. Lets do one about the Ugliest player ever. Lets be honest, in a sport where there is rarely protective head gear worn the NBA may be the only of the top four professional sports leagues to have their atheletes faces be so exposed.

I personal think Popeye Jones is one of the ugliest mugs to grace the hardwood.

Let me know what you think and I will try to compile a Top Ten List.

Oh and don't put Greg Oden on there, yeah he aint pretty but he is part of the family.

Ha is one sexy mofo .... so don't even think of bringing his name up here ......

I was going to link the famous Ha thread on RealGM (just to prove how handsome the dude is) but I think they wiped it out with the new format….anybody have it?

Popeye would've been my first

so I’ll go with pau gasol.
That is one ugly guy. Maybe if he shaved, cut his hair and glued a picture of LMA on his face then I would find him attractive.

Don't want to get run off the blog...

but, Brandon Roy won’t win any beauty contests.

by BrewDude on Jul 2, 2008 3:41 PM PDT reply actions  

he might

if the other contestants are Gasol, Muresan, Cassell and Kaman. Besides he would floor the judges in the talent portion of the program.

Huhza?

Roy looks awesome, he’s not an un-handsome dude at all. And I would know because I am also not an un-handsome man, and Roy is JUST LIKE ME.

Oden’s looks don’t count as ‘good’ or ‘bad’. They transcend all subjective laws of beauty, and become Epic, Godlike.

Roy has a boy next door look. I wish he lived next door to me and I could ask to borrow some sugar :-(

What?

are you serious?
BRoy is not in the same category as some of these fugly guys mentioned on here.
He’s not the cutest guy on the team but he def is not considered ugly.
This was supposed to be who is the ugliest, not who’s not that cute.
Are you gonna tell me that Broy is as ugly as Cassell or Gasol? C’mon, take it back?

by bustabucket on Jul 2, 2008 6:08 PM PDT up reply actions  

Big time disagree

He’s one of those mysterious mantypes who exudes beauty without looking like a GQ model. It’s something about the smile. (Admittedly, I think he’d look better if he shaved his chin.)

For the sake of not repeating an answer

Tim Duncan. Wait, let me finish. Since I moved out here from Louisiana in third grade I have been told I look “just like” every famous black person ever, starting back in the ‘90s with Grant Hill and Tiger Woods and Dr. Dre and Jay-Z, then moving into the new millennium and Amare Stoudemire and Chris Brown and, most recently, Kobe Bryant just to name a few. Tim Duncan was without question the most offensive, so he gets my vote.

He last saw action during the 04-5 season

nba.com sums up his career highlights thusly:

  • Tallied a career-high 13 points on 12/12/03 against Sacramento

  • Pulled down a career-high 11 rebounds against the Warriors on 4/11/05

  • Was 30 years old when he broke into the NBA with the Utah Jazz

His was not an overly distingushed career

Billy Ray Bates… he truly did look like a share cropper just sayin

Because I needed a picture for reference...

I don’t think that Billy Ray is on the same level as George Muresan or Ben Handlogten

by tingeyga on Jul 2, 2008 5:43 PM PDT up reply actions  

Poor = ugly?

Judging from the pic below, he looks like a normal guy. Admittedly, I’ve only heard his name and never have seen him before. Perhaps this was his best picture ever, but he looks… like a person.

I’ve also never met a real sharecropper, but I’d imagine there were some devestatingly handsome share croppers and that the profession didn’t necessarily connote ugliness by default.

It sucks enough being a sharecropper, now they gotta be ugly too?

That Rodman picture is absolutey disgusting.

Didn’t he get married to Carmen Elektra? Or was it Pamela Anderson? One of the women from Baywatch with fake breasts that are all more attractive than Dennis Rodman. Maybe it’s the name? Or the fact that he would shave his eyebrows put on a wig, fake eyelashes, and makeup? That takes balls doesn’t it? To crossdress? I thought only gay people did it. I’m confused.

Eddie Izzard crossdresses

And is not gay.

Some dudes, apparently, just like to dress as ladies without liking boys as well.

If dressing like a lady would snag me Brandon Roy, well, I’d already be in a miniskirt and neon pink eyeshadow.

I remember Madonna wanted to have a baby with Dennis Rodman but he wouldn’t do it. That woulda’ been an odd kid one way or another.

On topic for ugliness, off topic for the baseball reference

When we lived in Portland my wife would periodically surprise me with baseball cards of players who had really thick glasses, flowing mullets or giant afros. On day she was really excited because the guy at the card store sold her a card of the ugliest major leaguer ever, Don Mossi:

That's Prince Charles real papa

He looks like a cartoon.

I bet he was even goofier looking as a kid, and his big nose and ears and funny face were all things he needed to grow into. Once you’re an old man and look like that, you look ok.

In my estimation, I mean. I don’t know from experience :-(
