Reel obnoxious

A pro fisherman, Michael Iaconelli, ranked sixth on GQ magazine’s list of 10 most hated athletes — but it wasn’t for lack of trying to be like the No. 1 guy, banished Eagles receiver Terrell Owens.

As fellow angler Denny Brauer told the magazine: “When he catches one, you’ve got the fist pumps, the running around the boat, the lying flat on the boat. He’ll stare at the fish, yell at it, point at it. He’ll shake his finger at it.”

Fortunately, Sharpies can’t write on slimy fish scales.

(Oh, yes, the entire top 10: 1, Owens; 2, baseball’s Barry Bonds; 3, auto racing’s Kurt Busch; 4, baseball’s Curt Schilling; 5, Kobe Bryant; 6, Iaconelli; 7, basketball’s Bonzi Wells; 8, golf’s Phil Mickelson; 9, baseball’s A.J. Pierzynski; 10, tennis’ Lleyton Hewitt.)
