For his pouting and diva-like, meme-spawning attitude, Jay Cutler has earned a significant amount of notoriety around the NFL.
And not just on the field.
In a new survey released by Forbes, the Bears quarterback was named the most disliked NFL player — and fourth-most disliked athlete in America. The tabulation was based on Nielsen Sports and market research firm E-Poll.
Despite the dubious honor, Cutler shouldn’t fret. He wasn’t the only signal-caller to land on the list: Michael Vick (7th) and Tony Romo (10th) also made it.
Forbes’ full top 10:
1) Lance Armstrong
2) Manti Te’o
3) Tiger Woods
4) Cutler
5) Metta World Peace
6) Alex Rodriguez
7) Vick
8) Kurt Busch
9) Kobe Bryant
10) Romo

This is why Forbes is out of touch. Jay Cutler is not media friendly, and they make him pay for it. I would go with the wife beater, accused killer, or dirtiest player in the league to be safe.
I would rather have a most disliked quaterback with all the qualities he has going for him than many qb’s in the league – I believe he gets upset when he is trying to get the right play in. He is the first real franchise qb that the Bears have had in many, many, many years. I will stick with him.
