Introduction
In the world of sports, there a bunch of cool characters. These guys just seem to radiate confidence and it shows up on the field. Well, I guess that is not totally true. There are some guys that are impressive before the game but they absolutely lay an egg once they step on the field. Anyways, if you have guys like that, you need the opposite of that. That is why we are bringing you a list of 20 of the goofiest athletes in the world today.
These guys may not be exactly normal, but their results on the field certainly offset that. There are some of the usual suspects on this list, but a couple names may surprise you. They may seem perfectly normal but they do have some strange quirks that make them perfect for this list. For instance, there is a set of brothers on here that put up great numbers, but they are not exactly the most normal guys on the planet. You should be able to figure out who I'm talking about.
There are also a couple past athletes on here. One might be the goofiest player to ever play baseball, considering he did some of the strangest things on the planet during games. Heck, he even found a time for a bathroom break during an inning. There is also a former quarterback on this list that annoyed the crap out of people for a few years because he did not know when to hang his cleats up. He also has a pretty odd personal life.
Anyways, it is time to get to the list. If you think we are missing someone, let us know in the comments below.
Tom Crabtree
Crabtree may not be known by a lot of people, but his Twitter account is the stuff of legends. If you want proof of how goofy he can be, just read a few of his Tweets. You will be laughing in no time.
Cam Newton
Newton may not seem that goofy, but his acting skills always portray him in a humorous light. In this case, being a bit goofy is a positive trait.
Peyton Manning
You knew that you would find Manning on here. Everything about him screams goofy, but the man wins football games. I think his fans can deal with that.
Nyjer Morgan
I mean, this guy has an alternate personality. That grants him instant access to this list.
Brett Favre
Favre was known as a locker room prankster and once you add in his personal life, you have a pretty goofy guy.
Hunter Pence
Pence just looks goofy. He simply does not look like an athlete or even a person that should be coordinated enough to do simple tasks.
Rajon Rondo
Rondo comes from some alien planet, which means he is really goofy looking. Good point guard, though.
Russell Westbrook
Take a look at what the guy wears to press conferences and you can see why he makes this list.
Eli Manning
Of course the other Manning has to be on this list as well. If you can inspire a Tumblr, you are going to make this list.
Joakim Noah
Noah could be the goofiest looking athlete on the planet but he is certainly effective. His haters won't listen to that, though.
Nick Swisher
Swisher is another character, but that sometimes leads to bad things. Explains why his tenure with the Chicago White Sox lasted one whole season.
Manny Ramirez
Everyone knows about Manny's antics. He might not be in the majors anymore but he still makes the list.
Chris Bosh
The dude looks like a dinosaur and is painfully awkward. Welcome to the goofy list, Chris!
Randy Moss
Just look up Moss TV and that will tell you everything you need to know.
Dwight Howard
D-12 is another notorious prankster, which is good enough for a high spot on this list. He might want to work on his free throws instead of his jokes.
Tony Stewart
Stewart loves to pull pranks on the racing circuit and nothing is off the table for him. Just ask Delana Harvick.
Glen Davis
Big Baby is going to make every list about this. He has a bad rap song, he looks like a child, and his nickname is Big Baby. What more do you need?
John Daly
Mr. Daly wears outlandish clothes, loves smoking on the golf course and might have a drinking problem. That's certainly goofy enough.
Brian Wilson
Wilson is so goofy that it is painful. The dude does it intentionally but that does not make it any less strange.
Metta World Peace
Of course MWP is going to be on this list. He's been in a Lifetime movie, he has thanked his shrink on live TV, and he's done a whole host of other odd things. He's a perfect fit for this list.
