I heard this last night on a local radio station.

Which athlete is a guilty pleasure of yours to cheer for? i.e. if you like Rasheed Wallace eventhough he bit*h*s and moans and gets t'd up all the time, or you like T.O., A-Rod etc.

I despise the Yankees but love A-Rod and Jeter xnonono2x xnonono2x

Kenny Rogers. I thought he was a s#@t until he joined the Tigers in 2006. Then I realized that he was just being persecuted by the liberal media.

I rooted for The Rock when he fought Steve Austin, back in the day.

And like most, I suspect, sided with Jesse Ventura when he and a slightly smaller McMahon called the matches.

As much as it killed me this season, I had to cheer for that piece of crap named Randy Moss.

My favorite current NBA player is Allen Iverson, but I don't consider that guilty pleasure. He is the best player on the floor for his size.

I guess there really isn't any guilt there but I am not a women's golf fan unless she is playing then I'm an instant fan.

The Williams sisters. I feel for them because even though they are much better than mediocre players (like Anna Kournakova and a few others), they will not be as famous or get to do as many commercials due to not having as much sex appeal.

I like bikini babes as much as everyone, but....you know

What are you talking about? Serena was all over the place for quite a few years. She hasn't been around as much since she acted like a spoiled brat last year after losing. They both certainly got their fair share of endorsements and publicity, nothing to cry about there.

I've also liked A.I. He's one of the best examples of a great heart and a wondering mind. He's done and said dumb things but at the end of the day he plays his heart out and is a good person deep down. Anyone who's ever met him on City Line Ave. in Philly has nothing but good things to say about him. He's very polite and will not hesitate to shake your hand. However, it was notorious that he thought he deserved a break on his tab at Houlihan's.

I used to like Bill Laimbeer and Dale Hunter for the same reason.

Current player - T.O., some of his touchdown celebrations are classic. I hope I'm watching when he comes up with his next one.

Going back a few years here; in spite of my anti-UNC basketball bias, I liked watching George Lynch and later Ed Cota play. Shame.xsmhx
