Tom Brady
Some y'all call him the GOAT, some call him a cheater, and others call him the old man that just won't quit. Now, Tom Brady is 1 of 2, QB's that I dislike in the NFL and it is because the man has done everything in the NFL, and it's about that time for him to retire now. I thought we were finally going to see a Brady-less NFL after 20 years this coming season, but just like always, he doesn't know when to hang up the cleats. I don't think Tom Brady realizes how refreshing the NFL is, when he's not in the Super Bowl or when his team isn't doing good, it gives other players that you actually want to see, a chance to win a championship. As of now it looks like we will never stop hearing from Brady as he signed a 10-year, $375 Million deal with Fox Sports to become the next NFL player turned analyst. All I know is, I won't be watching Fox Sports for that long with him on the screen, unless the Cowboys are playing. Thanks Fox.....

3. Conor McGregor
This one I hate to do because at his peak, Conor McGregor was one of the best UFC Fighters and was one of the most entertaining fighters in the last couple of years, since in my opinion, Floyd Mayweather. I am not saying he was on the same level as Mayweather in the entertainment category, but from his trash talk at press conferences to all the antics he would pull, it made tuning into his matches very exciting and fun to watch. Now on the other hand, the reason it's time for McGregor to hang up the gloves is because I don't see him winning another fight in the UFC, he is only going to be a big name draw. Over his last 7 fights he has a record of 3-4 (not including the Mayweather boxing match), and as of recently he lost twice in a row to Dustin Poirier. McGregor has recently been having a way of words with UFC Champion, Kamaru Usman, and let me tell y'all right now, he don't want them problems.

4. Antonio Brown
There's not much to say here, when it comes to Antonio Brown, once a beloved superstar wide receiver to now out of the NFL, Brown's recent actions over the last 3-4 seasons has really made everyone wish he'd go away. As of recently, he's been seen hanging with Kanye West and Floyd Mayweather and going on different, platforms saying whatever he feels about Colin Kaepernick and other foolish things. As a former football player myself and seeing recent struggles of players having brain trauma and other head injures, I really do believe Antonio Brown, should seek some type of medical help to get his life back together and get back to being the player that he was.

5. Jackson Mahomes
Now stop, you may be wondering "I thought this was a list about athletes?", well you are correct but in the last couple of years, Patrick Mahomes's little brother, Jackson, has put himself at the center of attention so much it's almost like he is an athlete. The main reason that I want Jackson to leave us alone is because he's starting to use his privilege to do stupid things that shouldn't be done, when you are the brother of one of the top NFL QB's. It's a rarity you see a family member of an athlete take the shine away from the actual player, but due to his actions, Jackson Mahomes is doing just that to Patrick almost every time he plays an NFL Game. Jackson is the single-handed reason that I hope Josh Allen torches the Chiefs in the playoffs next year. I have no problem with people making their own content and doing what they do, but when you are becoming a distraction and making people start to dislike your brother just because, that's when it becomes a problem.
