Ugliest Player ever??? Help me build my wall of ugly.

gonzoa · July 28, 2006 10:26AM

Flipping through a stack of '58 topps, not more than 10 minutes ago, I came across good 'ole Don Mossi. Wow. Those ears.....he was not blessed....except perhaps with the gift of superhuman hearing.

I decided at that moment that I was going to build a WALL OF UGLY in my basement. Mossi will be the centerpiece, but he needs friends. lots of them.

I apologize if this has been discussed before, but if not, it's a great one. I need vintage opinions, prewar and post, and modern as well. I NEED THE UGLIEST PLAYERS EVER FEATURED ON A CARD. I myself can't post pics right now, but I'd love to see some pictures in addition to player's names. And moreso than the names, if there is one particular card that stands out in ugliness from the others, i'd love to know which ones. Twould save me some time. One final note: I direct you to Wally Moon. Perhaps not the ugliest man alive, but as Mossi is to ears, Moon is to Unibrows. Sometimes an exeragerated feature does the trick just as well. How 'bout it??? Help make my wall a reality. Thanks.

Here are a couple that come to mind Otis Nixon and Willie McGhee

tennesseebanker · July 28, 2006 10:42AM

A couple from the basketball world

CELTIC HATER!

tennesseebanker · July 28, 2006 11:03AM

Actually Matt, The Celtics were my favorite Team. But I have to admit Larry and Dennis were two ugly ballers.

I don't know what Sheldon Williams RC looks like since it's a redemption, but it belongs on this wall.

Check out Bob Young from the Cardinals on his 1980 All Pro card. That mug could stop traffic!

Julian Tavarez!

ArchStanton · July 28, 2006 11:13AM

Don't hate the playa. Hate the game.

Sorry. I couldn't resist. I hate to give up one of my beloved buccos, but when it come to ugly, this gangsta's got game.

By the way, it is my understanding that this card is really tough in high grade. So, if you have one, you may want to send it to PSA.

tennesseebanker · July 28, 2006 11:15AM

bri2327 · July 28, 2006 11:21AM

I always thought Sam Cassell looks like he should have been along side the boy playing banjo in Deliverance.

Randy Johnson has to get a nod....

But the ALL TIME UGLIEST has to be Gheorghe Muresan...

Bosox1976 · July 28, 2006 11:21AM

I loved him in Last of the Mohicans though...

gonzoa · July 28, 2006 11:26AM

AH, hopefully this worked. The '58 Mossi. And Muresan is a great one I'd forgotten......but he's not an athlete....he's an actor.

RichG · July 28, 2006 11:45AM

Since I'm a straight guy, I can't rate other guys when it comes to looks......they all look the same to me!!

jcdcubs · July 28, 2006 12:04PM

BILL WALTON WITH LONG WEIRD BEARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

riccaboni · July 28, 2006 12:59PM

Skip Juetz gets my vote. Not so much an ugly fella, but just so sad all of the time. (Ref: 1974 Topps baseball).

Boopotts · July 28, 2006 1:00PM

I wish I had the card handy, but you have to give some consideration to the 1992 Topps Ron (or maybe it's Don) Robinson.

Bosox1976 · July 28, 2006 1:02PM

Greg Kite - another of the handsome Celtics. The term "Bacne" was coined for him.

GDM67 · July 28, 2006 1:03PM

All-Ugly team Hall of Famer Andy Etchebarren

I will happily admit to being a Celtic hater.

GDM67 · July 28, 2006 1:04PM

No cards on eBay that accurately capture his wretchedness. I looked.

I dont know how he looked in 92, But he favored Ronald McDonald in 85

Dwayne Schintzius was no Cassanova either...

NBA's version of Joe Dirt.

He looks like Miss Hathaway from The Beverly Hillbillies

lawnmowerman · July 28, 2006 1:12PM

Do we have a match?

GDM67 · July 28, 2006 1:13PM

Henry always reminds me of David Byrne from Talking Heads.

Rumor has it that he and Billy Ray Cyrus are actually half brothers...

I think we have a winner with Billy Parks

Finkel must be disqualified from this category, He has already won the "Best Porn Mustache Award"

Hands-down the set with the highest ugly factor. Ever.

I just hurt my stomache laughing at those

Carew29 · July 28, 2006 3:02PM

Can somebody please post a shot of Jim Roberts(St. Louis Hockey). Any card will do

Stone193 · July 28, 2006 3:37PM

I'm gonna have to go with Donny boy with the dumbo ears.

zef204 · July 28, 2006 3:47PM

I don't know if this guy is ugly or just scary, but he has freaked me out for years.

GDM67 · July 28, 2006 4:28PM

<< Hands-down the set with the highest ugly factor. Ever. >>

Old time hockey!!

We need a subcontest for which individual card has the worst single image of Don Mossi.

itzagoner · July 28, 2006 4:36PM

how 'bout Jeffrey Leonard? They called him "Penetentiary Face"

williplett · July 28, 2006 5:21PM

Here is my pick!!

shagrotn77 · July 28, 2006 11:50PM

Two words:

DERRICK TURNBOW

Ouch!

gonzoa · July 29, 2006 12:52AM

Here's my boy Wally Moon....an AMAZING UNIBROW. Cartoonish even. Getting some good laughs here and some killer mugs for my wall. Thanks folks. My wife is gonna kill me when she gets back and sees my new wallpapering in the guest room. but it stays. I am absolutely convinced that ugly athletes have a better shot at getting to the pros. no women to interfere w/their training. and i do believe derrick turnbow may be the son of mossi....great ears.

oh, and it would be wrong for me not to pull out the prewar dentists' dream dick egan:

Ugliest Player ever??? Help me build my wall of ugly.
