Another Top 10 Unsportsmanlike Moments in Pro Sports


they’re VIPs of the sporting world and
some real sob s as well well no matter
how you slice it it’s legal it’s not
classy welcome to watchmojo.com and
today we’re counting down our picks for
another top ten unsportsmanlike moments
in sports I can’t shake the hand of so
he spits on my back and so I respect her
as a fighter she did an amazing job
tonight it’s just a handshake means
something to me and so she hasn’t earned
it from me for this list
we’re obviously excluding entries from
our original list and focusing on some
more athletes who displayed malicious
intent reaction to this latest incident
from the footballing world was Swift
Michael Owen tweeting both the kid and
azar were in the wrong not sure as I
tried to hurt him though he just tried
to poke it out of his grip for Criteria
purposes we’re excluding someone like
Diego Maradona who emotionally destroyed
all of England with his controversial
1986 hand of God goal but didn’t
actually physically harm anyone
he gave Argentina the lead in the 51st
minute by scoring with what he famously
called
the hand of God number 10 nasty bits
Shaq dunks on Dudley
again over the course of his eight-year
tenure with the Los Angeles Lakers
Shaquille O’Neal posted some huge
numbers during one particularly sweaty
game against the New York Knicks in 1999
he posted his heavy figure all up on
Chris Dudley before complementing the
move with a classic show fourth-quarter
Lakers up three Shaq and Chris Dudley
Dudley takes exception and picks up the
ball and drilled Shaq in the bus
Dudley being a grown man and all didn’t
quite appreciate this questionable
display of sportsmanship so he naturally
launched the ball at Shaq as if that
could erase this nasty bit of human
posture izing from his memory you want
to pick somebody to go with you go right
to the head of the class when you go
after Shaq number 9 tit for tat it
dinners off kicks ball boy but what’s
happened here one of the Chelsea players
I think is attacked well certainly is
wrestled the ball away from the ball boy
if you are familiar with European
football you know that both players and
fans alike will basically do anything in
the spirit of gamesmanship so when a
swansea ball boy attempted to bamboozle
the Chelsea club during their 2013
Capital One Cup semi-final game a deniz
off wreaked some serious havoc and
launched a swift gut bomb to the poor
kids midsection sure we don’t exactly
condone the ball boys behavior but in a
time when all sporting events are
captured on film we have to wonder what
exactly as all was thinking even if it
was kind of funny we’ll say this it then
earned that red card Wow that’s
inexcusable number eight that left hook
Gary Hall punches Brent’s taker one of
the most controversial and
got a sigh or dream since I sit on a
football field for a while if you google
the Australian footballer named Barry
Hall you’ll discover that he’s been
involved in a few incidents during his
AFL career he’s been parking the ban and
the Bears responded in a 2008 match
against the West Coast Eagles the
veteran tough guy put a left hook on
Brent’s takers chin because you know
he’s competitive or perhaps a few cards
short of a full deck
well tell you what the look of Brent
staggers eyes yeah but Robbie impact is
not going to do Barry hall a lot of good
all joking aside the cheap shot took
Staker out of the game and Hall was
later suspended for seven games while
securing a permanent place on the
youtube wall of shame for
unsportsmanlike moments have you learned
nothing in the past week if you kind of
punch someone
do it on the football field while it on
a brain snap it’s a very whole did
number seven the underarms Trevor
chapels pansy Bowl you only have to say
the underarm incident and every
dedicated cricket follower knows exactly
what you mean back in 1981 there was
nothing in the rules and regulations of
cricket saying one can’t Bowl underarm
but in the spirit of competition it was
simply a no-no let’s make sure it is a
number on but I got the feeling so
imagine the outrage when an already
contentious 1981 match between Australia
and New Zealand took a troubling turn
when Australia’s Trevor Chapel
effectively mailed it in to secure a
final victory that’s a disappointing
finish the New Zealanders actually
needed six runs to tied up but in
perhaps the most boneheaded decision of
Australian cricket Greg Chappell asked
his brother to embrace his inner
cowardice because sports are just that
damn important briefly a champ forever a
bum I think was a disgraceful
performance from a captain who got his
sums wrong today and I think it should
never be permitted to happen again
number six
Leatherface Albert Haynesworth stomps
Andre Jerrod Ainsworth has been
disqualified and
early on in the 2006 NFL season the
Tennessee Titans were hosting America’s
Team the Dallas Cowboys so dominant was
Gerard’s performance that all-pro
defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth lost
control however one big dude named
Albert Haynesworth nearly ended the
American dream of Andre Jerrod for no
apparent reason other than malicious
intent after a play Haynesworth strolled
on over to a pile of opponents and
thought maybe I’ll drop a few spikes
into this guy’s head it was pretty
impressive the physical day that he was
having you know getting good push in
there knocking people back and you know
the end of the day he frustrated a
pretty good player in our league but
while most mature players can handle
their emotions and thoughts Hainsworth
just went ahead anyway like it was no
big deal which led to 30 stitches for
Jerrod unbelievable number five how dare
you Dale hunter blindsides Pierre
Churchill
today Dale hunter has a fantastic
reputation as a professional hockey
coach in the Ontario Hockey League
winning hockey has become a habit for
the London nights under head coach Dale
hunter on October 31st hunter notched
his 600 jaquel win but back in 1993 he
proved himself to be just another
testosterone-fueled athlete in the
Patrick Division semi finals of the NHL
playoffs watch the teeth teeth shot Dale
hunter Flip Saunders on after the goal
both Fergana and then Benoit Hogg were
injured from the roughed up in game 6
against the New York Islanders hunter
lost the puck to pure Tom not only did
Tyrell capitalize on the opportunity by
scoring he also celebrated as hockey
players have been known to do hunter
then proceeded to hunt down Tyrell
to deliver a hard-hitting check as a
result he would miss the first 21 games
of the following season
I’ve lost a tremendous amount of respect
for that organization in that player and
there’s no time in a league for a player
like that
number 4 the taste of spinal fluid
kermit washington punches Rudy
Tomjanovich it sounded like a melon that
had been dropped on the floor when
you’re one of seven players to average
20 points and 20 rebounds over your
entire college career it takes something
pretty despicable for that to be
overshadowed and there’s really nothing
to justify the 1977 roundhouse punch
that Kermit Washington dropped on Rudy
Tomjanovich who was simply trying to
break up an in-game brawl between the LA
Lakers and the Houston Rockets what he
was on the floor and it was a pool of
blood and it was just right around his
face and it started expanding
when Rudy coastal census yes but the
scoreboard has fallen off the punch
nearly killed Tomjanovich and
considering the graphic descriptions of
those who witnessed it firsthand it’s
kind of a miracle that he went on to
have a successful coaching career
considering he tasted his own spinal
fluid on that fateful day I wish I could
go back give me a time machine I think I
would just abduct and never started a
fight number three hey what’s that
Floyd Mayweather jr. punches Victor
Ortiz a few years ago Floyd Mayweather
jr. destroyed the hopes of casual boxing
fans it was the pound for pound champ
crushed the jaw of an opponent that
maybe just maybe could have handed money
his first professional loss ortiz
headbutts Mayweather there’s a break in
the round a start back up Ortiz lets his
guard down me whether sucker punches him
and that’s that and you wasted 70 bucks
on pay-per-view nobody expected Victor
Ortiz to outbox the champ on that June
evening but then again nobody expected
Floyd to get his boxing shorts in a knot
and cheap shot a defenseless Ortiz Ortiz
talking to Mayweather and watch that if
you’re a die-hard mayweather fan then
you probably have a tough guy take on
the incident but any boxing purist will
tell you this mojo holux that was a punk
move we’re not here to cry and complain
about what he did dirty or what I did
dirty I was victorious if you want a
rematch you can get a rematch number 2
kung-fu and seagulls a French tale Eric
Cantona kung fu kick football and
martial arts these two sports don’t
often appear in the same sentence but a
French athlete known as King Eric
brought the two together during an
outrageous moment in 1995 the Football
Association called it a stain on the
game and of charge Canton are with
bringing the game into disrepute playing
away to Crystal Palace Eric Cantona
overheard a palace fans hateful boasting
did he just shrug it off now he greeted
him with a Bruce Lee style kung fu kick
followed by a series of Floyd Mayweather
liked jabs
when all was said and done cantina
earned himself an eight-month ban and in
perhaps the strangest press conference
ever the guy referenced Siegel’s such a
baller move when the seagulls
follow the chola it’s because they sink
sergeant’s will be stormed in Kihei see
thank you before we unveil our number
one pick here are a few honorable or in
this case dishonorable mentions – I’m
trying to get that glove off in his
hands all right
he says a word or two and now he’s been
tossed from the game Miguel Madrid threw
his bat and the bat hit the umpire are
you oh boy that’s a bad move by Delmon
Young
Salo Mackey and then he is banged up
he’s going to try and make his way to
the bench and there’s the collision with
Don Henderson he doesn’t even see the
linesman showing that woody did was
stupid right in front of the referee who
produced a red card
that’s this graceful
that’s not only ejection that’s going to
be a suspension and should be number one
your classic face slash Marty McSorley
hits Donald Brashear with stick well ol
big boy here and caught him in they held
it in the world of hockey a sport in
which players are allowed to publicly
fight there’s nothing that typically
surprises fans or players for that
matter unless of course it’s a blindside
cheap shot I think Margaret Marty in all
fairness was trying to tap them in the
shoulder but you know you’re very
responsible for the year stick in 2000
with less than five seconds left in a
game against the Vancouver Canucks the
Boston Bruins Marty McSorley
inexplicably whacked Donald Brashear in
the face from behind this led Brashear
to not only take a nasty backwards fall
but also to suffer from a severe
concussion when there are so many ways
to confront your opponent in hockey this
particular display of unsportsmanlike
conduct unsurprisingly caught the
attention of the British Columbia
authorities he really tried to to
injured knee and I mean I could have
died I don’t think this guy should be
playing in the league in one you know
McSorely would end up being sentenced to
18 months probation and never played
another game in the NHL now do you
accept the apology from Marty I’ll never
understand how he got to the point where
he would hit me in the head with a stick
do you agree with our list which entry
do you think is the most unsportsmanlike
what a disgrace for more mind-blowing
