The definition of chump is really hard to explain. You can arrive at being a chump in so many fashions, which is why there won’t necessarily be a consistent theme to the five athletes you are about to see.
The Chumps are: guys that have become just absolutely terrible at their sport, guys who have said something that they probably shouldn’t have, and finally guys who have conducted themselves off the field or court in a manner that makes them look like a complete tool.
With that said, we arrive at these five gentlemen….
5. Reggie Bush – Miami Dolphins
Reggie has always been on the cusp of being a total chump. Here’s the catch with Reggie, prior to the season starting people thought his career would be revived in Miami. For those of you who drafted him in Fantasy Football, you know what I’m talking about. Thus after 5 games what we have is Reggie being completely engulfed in chump status. No two ways around it.
4. Alex Rodriguez – New York Yankees
Ironically, the only thing that might be saving Alex is this new chick he found. Other than that the guy id D-O-N-E. He was an automatic out in the playoffs. It was almost painful to watch. Couple that with the fact people suspected he was a chump before, and there you have it. Welcome, friend.
3. Phil Mickelson and Tiger Woods
File this one under sports-related for “the year”. First, let me say that Phil Mickelson is my favorite golfer. This pains the f%ck out of me, but if you watched him play this year the guy just couldn’t get it done. It was excruciating. Because Phil has tons of money and is really a family man, I’m afraid to say it, but he might be donezo. Tiger was already a chump in his personal life, now he’s a legit chump at golf.
2. The Red Sox Organization
Straight from the Boston Globe, the Sox have lost it. Talk about an epic downfall this year. The Sox went from one of the best teams, make that best organizations in baseball to a total disaster from the top down. What a mess.
1. Kris Humphries – Unemployed
How does Kim Kardashian not see what a total f$cking loser her husband is? It’s on TV every night. Actually, Kim’s half-retarded so I take that question back. Yeah, I’m pretty much going after Kris Humphries here. The guy was never really anything to begin with, but he’s seriously turned himself into the biggest chump on the planet. Dude, just keep your mouth shut and bang your hot wife. Is it that hard? For the love of God man.

Another knee-jerk writer who can’t differentiate between an underperforming player and an INJURED one. Alex clearly never recovered from his knee injury and then the thumb injury. I’d love to see you attempt to hit with a bad knee AND a bad hand. Alex will be fine as long as he comes back healthy.
You were likely one of the fools in 2010 saying Granderson was done, or that Jeter was done in 2008, and early in 2011 telling us Jeter was done…. then he came back and hit .330 for 3 months. HOF 12+ year career, and then over one bad month you decide someone is done. The real sad thing here is that writers like this are never held accountable after the fact for these knee-jerk articles.

Norty you do look a considerable amount like chris humphries……if he had aids.
Also, I didnt appreciate that article hating on Philly fan….seemed like a knee-jerk article for a knee-jerk writer. But guess what, I am going to hold you accountable in bed tonight. But tonight I am going to be the only doing the jerking!!! No way you are getting away with that one mister!

Yup Mystic, real knee-jerk. Like A-Rod’s ever been good in the playoffs. Oh, there was that one year. Unless you can somehow confirm he had an injury every other year. You sound like quite the chump yourself. You stick with A-Rod all you want, and I’ll enjoy watching you fall with him every year. He should be #2. Humphries should stay and #1 cuz who the hell would actually marry that loudmouth ho? Bet her fat ass is divorced in the next 5 years.
