    I don't really care for Odell Beckham. I hated that stupid looking hair he had, I didn't know whether to laugh at his hair or cook it and serve it for dinner.

    Eli Manning and Arod. 100% cannot stand either one and it’s not even debatable

    I didn’t like Reggie Jackson in Naked Gun; mostly because he was trying to kill the queen.

    Nice card Tim 👍

    I agree that OBJ is really hard to like. Additionally, I just can't stand LeBron James. Ughh

    George Brett, Bobby Orr and Terry Bradshaw.

    While I like the Spanish fire in his game, similar to guys like Seve, he seems to channel his into choking at critical moments. I think Jon Rahm is heading more the path of Seve, but has had a few Sergio moments.

    It would not surprise me to see LeBron James run for president in 2024 or 2028.

    If so it will be interesting to see how he handles the rough and tumble of politics.

    I used to think that about Tiger Woods. Before his scandal & Obama coming onto the scene, he had a presence about him. Tiger's father predicted bigger things for him than just golf.

    I cannot envision LeBron running for president. Mainly because of how poorly he's handled his departures from city to city, and how it appears he will run coaches out of town.

    I do believe that we will see a run of famous people running for office in the next 25 years. I'm sure Vegas has lines that you can bet on these things...

    As a Patriots I don’t have much use for either one of them.

In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?

    How can this list be complete without Colin Kaepernick? I would rather be down wind from a pig sty than watch him play.

    Another great point! I always like Peyton, even when he was with Indy and was battling the Pats for the AFC.
