Syracuse (WSYR-TV) - A "Q score" is something usually assigned to celebrities to reflect their perception in the public.
The Q Scores Company recently surveyed people to see how they feel about the most famous (or infamous) athletes.
In this edition of The List, the NewsChannel 9 morning team looks at the six most hated athletes.
6.) LeBron James - his score plummeted after his hour-long ESPN special announcing his departure from Cleveland to Miami
5.) Michael Vick - he might be back in the NFL, but few people have forgotten the horrendous animal abuse he was convicted of several years ago
4.) Chad Johnson (or Chad Ochocinco) - he's a love him or hate him kind of guy, but more people hate him because of his flamboyant on and off the field antics
3.) Terrell Owens - Johnson's teammate has been accused of being a sore loser who likes to blame his own failures on teammates.
2.) Kobe Bryant - his Q score still hasn’t recovered several years after he was accused of rape (and then exonerated)
1.) Tiger Woods - he went from extremely well liked to extremely hated almost overnight after revelations of his infidelity
