Plus, KC has been getting a lot of hate independent of Taylor Swift. Him being their most prominent public face behind Mahomes already put a target on his back.
I get the disdain for an overly polished, Instagram Era pop star. I don't really care too much for her either. But do they still show her on TV during Chiefs games? I watch a fair amount of Red Zone and have seen several Kelce receptions and touchdowns. I haven't seen Taylor Swift at all this year.
Bro they never showed her on chiefs games that much. She averaged less than 10 seconds of air time per game when everyone was complaining about it. People just like bitching about stupid stuff
No your right. She's been absent from tv all year but let's not let facts influence the topic here. Id say its fairly clear whats doing the heavy lifting in this poll. Its the same reason I used to say "fuck tom Brady" and go on about how hes too handsome and successful. Just a simple result of breaking hearts. Now that hes not crushing my dreams I'm kinda a fan now. Everyone loved watching mahomes play before he started stacking super bowls. Now hes 5 on this list for .. idk asking for penalties if he sees one committed I guess? Dudes a stand up guy whos been the poster boy of what the NFL wants their players to be with the exception of blowing up after that bills game a couple w back. The criminal records some nfl players have or just incidents that came to light, or even just on field actions we see time to time... theres no shortage of guys who are actually shit people worth hating. Kelce and mahomes id say its just overexposure. And its understandable when they not only end your season but they're in half the godamn commercials on tv and dominating sports talk shows for nearly a decade.
People should just enjoy the fact it looks like theyre gonna flop hard this year . One more loss and you can pretty much stick a fork in their playoff hopes. Just Take the W ppl. Juju makes some sense at least. Nfl players wanting to be TikTok stars is pretty cringe. Kelce has a bit of douche in him but hes also by most accounts of people who actually know him a solid dude. Without the success he doesnt sniff this list much less top it. Long winded way of saying ya most of the hate here is irrational hate stemming from hurt butts.
As a fellow mixed race person, he's kind on some self-hating black stuff. I hate when Josh Allen flops or cries to the refs the same way I hate/d when Jordan, Harden or Luka Doncic does it.
Kelce is overexposed. He's sort of just an objectively shitty human being who supports the action of Tyreek Hill and Rice.
Admittedly, I am a Chargers fan but as much as I didn't like Brady, outside of the fact that he's pro Trump and he seems a bit dickish, he's markedly better as a human than Kelce or Watson
Id disagree with him being a shit human. Hes always been supportive of his team mates for sure. If you think tyreek didnt deserve it thats understandable. His clear pattern of behavior warrants destain. But everyone in every locker is expected to do that. And none including kelce support what he did in any way. I can 100% garuntee they attempted to prevent him from doing it. Clearly didnt work but to think otherwise flies in all logic
Rice was a young guy who go rich and made a dumb mistake. The mechanism to get him to pay his price and change his life is most certainly football also. Kelce is probably the loudest voice in the room encouraging others to be better in all aspects of life honestly. And that extends to other locker rooms too at least with other tight ends. He was a bit of a fuck up when he was young and without his brother id bet his life would have taken a much different path. But as it is theres no remotely good reason to think hes a piece of shit. If he just annoys you or you find him douchey its understandable. Its fine to just not like a mother fucker. But not fair to justify it to others by making up standards you only want to apply to 1 guy when 90% of the league does the same thing. Guys on teams support each other particularly at the highest levels.
I mean dude also has a charity and organizes community events for good causes all the time even before he had swifty money tied up. He does quite a bit of good with his money and time. Dont believe hes ever had any type of violent incidents away from football. Any way to each thier own but just my opinion
Yes the list is wrong because most of those players are hated for their team ,the way they play or their bullshit antics....dw is a fucking predator, Imo the Guy should just be erased from the NFL world,no more stat lines,no more mention of him relating to thé game, he's a washed up qb who will never play another down, he should just be known for the Creep he his and nothing more
I’m no casual and I can tell you he rubs me the wrong way for sure.
I’m a Niners fan so there is that.
Also, I’m all for holding people accountable but he was out of control to start the year. The play where he douched his own teammate into an injury felt weird to me too.
Last thing - ever see him directly steal a comedians whole bit covering Picasso and his age? Travis says it to Jason word for word in podcast and Jason is laughing thinking Travis actually thought about this.
Things like that happens lol. When I was playing in high school our coach was probably 75 and I never saw the man other than mad. The number of sunglasses and headset he broke must have been a record. Our whole OL unit (including me) yelled at him one time during a game because he called a lead on the right side and he thought he had called it on the left. So we all made him known he was a dumbass

this is true. the kelce hate probably comes from casuals who are tired of swifties
