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

in Trading Cards & Memorabilia Forum
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.

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

    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.

    image

    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.

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

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

    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.

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

    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.

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

    Two words:

    DERRICK TURNBOW

    Ouch!
    "My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. Our childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When we were insolent we were placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds - pretty standard really."

    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.
