PrintI was just sitting at home watching Biggest Loser and then I went to Twitter and I forgot all about the tweet from earlier today...
Name the Top 5 most beloved #Padres. Go!

And then @LobShots called me out and I was like, "Well, Biggest Loser is done. I guess I'll summarize what people said."
Through the magic of Google Spreadsheets, I have tabulated the results of our poll to determine the Top 5 most beloved #Padres on the Twitter. I scored everybody 5 points for any first place votes, 4 for second and so on. If you gave me more than 5, I gave your 6 through whatever half a point.
AND NOW THE RESULTS:
AFTER THE JUMP

Dave Winfield is soooooo pissed at you right now, Twitter. Also, I count like a million Dodgers on that list. WTF. And I was really hoping that Adrian wouldn't come in fifth. That just stokes that guy's ego. Like SRSLY.

Well, yeah; this is TTG you're dealing with, Uncle Dex.
I am really glad he didn’t name me Hamilton.
Purrrrrrr

Gene Kingsale #9?
Huh?
At least Ruben Rivera (#10) was funny to laugh at.

Tied for 8th
And, FYI, Gene and I don’t like it when you laugh at us.

That's a horrible list.

For What It's Worth
I had some confusion over whether this was suppose to be MY 5 most beloved Padres or who I thought were the 5 most beloved Padres for the public.
Same here
until Dex asked me if I was even alive when Nasty Nate played.

Awesome list
It’s a fine line between sarcastic and literal.

Come on, guys, we all know the list is:
1-Doug Mirabelli
2-Randy Myers
3-Jim Leyritz
4-Al Martin
5-Hideki Irabu (honorable mention)
Ehhhh, I don't deserve a signature...
I don't see what being a Padre has to do with anything
My list includes Philip Rivers, jbox, and the guys from Primus.

I'm ashamed to call myself a Padres fan right now

I <3 Rickey
That dude is comedy gold, and an awesome player to boot
Ehhhh, I don't deserve a signature...
I wish I could find that Padres promo commercial from the 90's
“People always ask me, ‘Rickey, how do you steal all those bases?’”
“Rickey get on!”
Comedy platinum!
Seriously, though, Nate Colbert needs to be on that list
Someone needs to petition the Colbert nation to put that up there. Maybe they just need to shoop Stephen’s picture onto Nate’s.
Ehhhh, I don't deserve a signature...
Salt N Pepa endorse this comment.

I happen to know
that Father Dowling got at least a half a vote more than Mike Piazza.
Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you? ◔ヮ◔

chop chop?
I can’t believe he didn’t get a single vote. Maybe when he completes his comeback with AZ and has 17 bloop singles to left against us this season people will appreciate just how mediocre and funny to watch he was.
We should do this with GLBers

Bip Roberts
On the back of my little league baseball card it asked who’s your favorite bb player. I answered Tim Flanery. I always regretted that. I should have said bip , I should have said bip.
Top 5:
Bip Roberts
Tim Flanery
Quilvio Veras
Marvel Wynne
Fred McGriff
I tried to get his autograph before a ST game when I was a wee lad
He told me he would after the game.
I was excited.
He left in the 5th inning.
Thanks, Bip.

I guess no-one twittered over Bradley
or Barrett (I just like saying his name coz it drives half this place crayzee).
I guess nobody using twitter is old enough to remember the Padres legends:
Enzo Hernandez, Tito Fuentes, and Ed Spiezio. If you go for the least popular, include the Padres’ first manager, Preston Gomez, for preventing the Padres’ first no-hitter.

Where are my boys?

The Padres are good, but make no mistake: we've gotta beef up the linwup.
If I had a nickel from every SBN blog that has banned me, Arrowhead Pride would owe me 5¢.
No one for Phil Nevin or Ryan Klesko?

No NATE COLBERT!?
No Nate Colbert or Dave Roberts — sad. How ‘bout Gene Richards? Bob Metzger? Johnny Grubb? No one breaking out Bob Owchinkwo, or Juan Eichelberger?! Okay maybe not those last two. Obviously the demographic of this list can’t remember anything before the 80’s (if that). C’mon Pads fans, love your roots.
I will never forgive Dave Roberts
for putting on a Red Sox uniform, while under contract with The Padres.
Which Dave Roberts?
