FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- The scrapbooks Jacob Tamme's wife have put together for him throughout the years will soon have a new item: a SiriusXMNFL radio list citing him as the NFL player fans loves to hate the most.

The mild-mannered Tamme got a chuckle after beating out Tom Brady, Cam Newton and Richard Sherman with 40 percent of the vote. Tamme really engaged the fans to win enough votes. The final results were published here:

"I just happened to cross it and saw my name on it and said, 'This is interesting,'" Tamme said. "And I said to myself, 'I might as well win this thing.'"

Tamme found out a fan called in and wasn't happy that he caught some of Dallas Clark's touchdowns when the two played together in Indianapolis and Clark got hurt.

"At that point, we just had fun with it," Tamme said about discovering the list by chance. "Since I was on it, I thought it would be neat to beat somebody. I kind of singled out Sherman because he was the closest one to me when I saw where I was in the poll. So I said, 'Let's try to get some more votes and beat out Richard Sherman.' The next thing I knew, people went crazy.

"Not only did I get those votes, but all the reasons people put on Twitter were pretty hilarious and a lot of fun."

For example, someone jokingly tweeted how Tamme goes through the 10 items or less express line at the grocery store with 15 items. Another person -- Falcons' team website guru Jay Adams -- teased how one time, Tamme gave him a Gatorade without permission but it was a red one, and no one likes red ones.

One fan even chimed in that Tamme trains pigeons to poop on cars.

Even Tamme's wife, Allison, got a chuckle out of the contest.

"She just thinks I'm silly, as usual," Tamme said. "But she did say she was going to put it in the scrapbook. She's going to print out the results and put them in there."

For the record, Tamme is far from the type of player anyone would love to hate. He is extremely active in the community, particularly with veterans. He just goes about his business on Sundays trying to make the most of being a pass-catching tight end.

On the field, you won't catch Tamme trash-talking with opponents, although he was close to retaliating at one point last season.

"It was the Saints game, the last game of the year," Tamme said. "There's a lot of stuff that goes on out there that can't be repeated. But I'm trying to stay out of that world. I don't really live that world. ... In all seriousness, I don't think it really helps my play to get to engaged in talking out on the field."

Now, Tamme just had to avoid taking touchdowns away from teammates, like he apparently did with Clark.

"I haven't reached out to Dallas yet, but I need to," Tamme said. "I have to ask him to stop having his brothers call in to these radio shows."
