The overwhelmingly positive stories to come out about Tony Gwynn got me thinking about how well liked he was. Nowadays it is hard to think of an athlete who is as well liked as he was.

Who are some other athletes that are universally liked?

Grant answer. Yao Ming is another one.

Nobody hates Grant Hill, right?

Uhh no. During the 3-peat Shaq was very much hated. Kobe was well liked. It didn't flip until a few years later

Sir Charles really? I know plenty of auburn fans that hate his racist arse. Gretzky, Mike Trout,David Robinson, Barry sanders, and Altidore.

If you dont like Barkley, you're a POS, imo.

Rivera, definitely. Loved seeing him in his last All-Star game. That was a great moment.

How Walter Payton has not been mentioned yet is surprising.
