Assholes

Guest MrRant

Who do you think are the biggest assholes in sports?

 

For me I would say Albert Bell is at the top of my list. Dennis Rodman also stuck me as being one as well. Ken Griffey Jr. is on it now that he has become a whining little bitch.

Although I loved Albert Belle, he was an asshole.

 

Claude Lemiuex and Tie Domi are also assholes.

Derek Bell. Remember "Operation Shutdown?"

 

Theo Fleury also gets high marks from me.

Generally I can deal with whining and bitching. I'm willing to give Ken Griffey et al. the benefit of the doubt, because the media has a habit of blowing things WAY out of preportion. My asshole list deals mostly with those who've purposely injured other players for no good reason. So here's a few of mine......

 

Ben Christenson, hit a kid in the on deck circle with a baseball in college

Felix Martinez, broke a player's jaw who was sliding into second

Israel Alcantara, kicked a catcher in the chest

Albert Belle, forearmed Fernando Vina

Mike Tyson

Tyson isnt an asshole. Fuck what the media tells you.

 

Tyson is a good man. He bit Holyfields ear, because Holyfield was headbutting him and the ref wouldnt do shit.

 

Than theres Mike Tyson with his "I wanna eat your children"

 

Read this article.

 

http://www.observer.co.uk/sport/story/0,69...,738567,00.html

 

Oh and Claude Lemiux is a prick.

 

Remember what he did to Kris Darper(Or Darin McCarty) in the 1996 playoffs?

 

I also believe Barry Bonds isnt a jerk. He just doesnt wanna put up with the media's bullshit.

 

Toronto Maple Leaf fans are a bunch of cry babys "Waaaa, we dont get Curtis "choker" Joseph".

 

Belfour IS a good goalie.

Just cause Tyson has done a few good things doesn't wash away all the bad things he did.

 

Claude did what he did to help win a Stanley Cup. He won two cups for the Devils so I'm eternally greatful.

 

BTW- I like Cujo more than Eddie and I was upset they let Cujo go

What has Tyson done wrong? Being accused of raping someone?(The girl walked into his hotel at 3 am, can you say BOOTY CALL?) Bite someones ear because the he was headbutting him and the dumb ref would do jackshit?

 

I'm sorry but if a guy ketp on headbutting you, and the ref wouldnt do anything. It would make you mad.

 

I know I would go crazy, and if you say you wouldnt go crazy, your a damn liar.

 

Claude Lemiuex HIT Kris Draper FROM BEHIND! Thats fucking bullshit.

Tyson too me is an asshole no matter how he acts (I hated this guy before the Holifield fight).

 

Lemiux would be a dirty player, but not an asshole because of a cheap shot.

 

So you are saying people who do cheap shots are assholes?

 

You are saying Dale Hunter, Axlesson hit on Zednik, and many others are assholes because they did that they thought would help their team to win. (provided the Detroit Colorado series was excellent as well.)

Tyson beat up a guy in that traffic accident and just cause a girl is in your room at 3 am- it doesn't mean you can just fuck her.

 

I think Tyson needs some professional help- his promoters have done nothing but harm him.

 

What Lemieux did was jerkish but he plays to win and its the playoffs and I say: anything goes

So? Tyson isnt a perfect man. I'm not saying that. I'm just saying hes not an asshole. Crazy? Agureable. Asshole? No

 

And if someone hurt one of ur pericous Devils or Leafs, youd be complaining.

 

So dont be so hypocitical

Ken Griffey Jr., for incessant whining about the pressures of being Ken Griffey. You act as if you're the only person who deals with criticism on a daily basis, though, with your ridiculous salary, I guess you really are in a league of your own.

 

Barry Bonds, for comments defending the players in labor negotiations by saying that they were "fighting for the future of the children." Please. Just shut the fuck up, put on that ridiculous armor of yours, and go hit home runs.

 

Frank Thomas, for the total me-first attitude with his benching in Chicago. You haven't been a top-tier player since your weight overtook your batting average, Frank - get over it.

 

And, finally, The Fans of Philadelphia, for hundreds of textbook examples of hapless rage and stupidity, the foremost example being their booming cheers for Michael Irvin's career-ending injury. You totally deserve the Phillies, Eagles, 76ers, and Flyers, who have combined for a whopping two world championships in the last twenty-five years.

Mike Tyson and Dennis Rodman are very nice guys when it comes to dealing with fans. I've seen both of them in public places many times and they'll take away from their own time to talk to fans whenever. They both could be assholes while in their sports though. Griffey seemed to act like an asshole to a bunch of fans on one of his trips to Pittsburgh.

Man In Blak, I think most Philly fans get a bad rap for the actions of a few. In fact, the Phillies fans have gotten quite amusing this year. Just about every pitcherhas a group of fans who dance every time they record a K, and a group of fans even dressed up and did a victory jig when Todd Pratt performed the amazing accomplishment of drawing a walk. But anyway, not all of us are assholes. I like to think Im fairly civilized, and my love for the Cardinals keeps me sane as well.

I've always hated Bonds. I hated Clemens too, until he drilled Bonds in the ARMor at Yankee Stadium.

 

I think that Shaq and Kobi (sp?) are dickheads, just for talking unneccessary shit about the Kings after the Lakers stole the Western Conference Finals from them.

 

Any hockey fan who doesn't agree with the Dallas Stars goal to win in 1999 is an asshole.

 

As far as football, I'd like to ram a friggin' football into Randy Moss' mouth for his "I'll play when I want to" comment. As a fan, I believe I'm entitled to kick him in the junk.

 

Hockey assholes:

 

People still bitching about the McLaren/Zednik hit

Leafs' fans complaining about Alfie's hit to Darcy "hip check" Tucker, just seconds before scoring the winner.

Lemeiux for coming back and ruining his legacy. As long as Wayne "God himself" Gretzky stays out, I'm happy.

 

There are more, but I can't think now.

bleedthesKY27 SEZ:

Well, it's not like the Kings didn't invite the trash-talking. While I agree that there was WAAAY too much talking going on from both sides in the Western Conference Finals, I certainly don't absolve guys like Mike Bibby, Vlade Divac, and Chris Webber. It takes two to trash-talk. Oh, and for the record, the referees gave the Lakers Game Six, but the refs gave the Kings Game 5, and if every player besides Mike Bibby didn't run and hide like little bitches during overtime of Game Seven, the Kings would've won the series despite Game Six.

 

As far as football, I'd like to ram a friggin' football into Randy Moss' mouth for his "I'll play when I want to" comment. As a fan, I believe I'm entitled to kick him in the junk.

Be sure to check if he has a cup on first. If I were taking a swing at Moss's crotch, I'd want it to count. You know what'd fix his wagon? One reverse where the offensive line doesn't "feel" like blocking. Problem solved.

You rat bastard, you beat me to it. Philly fans are the absolute WORST fans on the face of God's green earth. They're almost all of that mutant mentality, and just listening to any one of those drunken, imbecilic, unfeeling, know-nothing boobs makes me want to vomit. They can talk about how Iverson and McNabb are gods all they want, but as soon as they start losing, the fans will start their battery chuckin' at their false idols.

 

And that, of course, was TAME. If you want a REAL rant, just rile me up.

Nope, just a vast, vast, VAST majority of you. Believe me, you are the tiny minority. Plus, it doesn't matter what dances they do for pitchers now, because they're just going to get traded in the next two-three years anyway. And WHAT IS TODD PRATT DOING WITH A JOB IN THE MAJORS?

 

Israel Alcantara, kicked a catcher in the chest

I'll agree with that. Lord knows why he went off on Johnny Estrada, but I will say that as long as he hits the way he does (he's leading the IL in HRs again this year), he'll have a job. What's really funny is that if you search the web, all you'll find is support for the guy because he got benched last year "unfairly". He got benched because he dogged it. BADLY. Another side note: Estrada was apparently behind the plate for the Drew Henson/Brett Myers MOTYC a few weeks ago.

 

Of course, nobody EVER will approach Deion Sanders in terms of being an asshole. He was the worst. Absolutely. No one beats him. He is, was, and always will be, the BIGGEST loudmouthed pussy in professional sports. You know, there's being a disturbed human being like Mike Tyson,; there's being a moody, whiny bitch like Ken Griffey Jr of late; but nothing, NOTHING beats the self-righteous, hide-behind-the-media act that Deion pulled in his years in the NFL. It just goes to show that self-promotion is more important than actual DOING YOUR JOB WELL in professional sports.

Oh God, I totally agree with the Deion Sanders thing. He's from down here in Florida, and I work in Ft. Myers (were he grew up), so I have to hear about how he's "the best cornerback EVER, no arguments" from the fuckers down here.

 

I would probably tape the Randy Moss "No block" reverse play, so that I could watch it over and over. I would probably wear the tape out.

I find most the Baseball HOFers to be angry, and bitter that today's players are making so much more.

 

Last year I went to the Baseball HOF induction ceremony. We got the Cooperstown around 6:30, and low and behold the museum was closed, because the HOFers where going arrive soon. We decided to wait for about 2 1/2 hours, than we grabbed something to eat. When we left the restraunt the players had arrived and where entering the museum. From a distance I saw the great Yogi Berra, totally ignore someone right in front of him. No nod, or wave or even a smile it was right into the building for cocktail hour.

People wait outside for 3 hours, to get glimpse of these legends and they get brushed off. It's bad enough that they charge $50 dollars an autograph but they can't acknowledge the crowd.

 

Kirby Puckett-A liar and a phoney and alleged wife beater. It would be one thing if he would of slept around, but he acted like this loving family man, he was a total hypocrite. The opinion of Puckett has changed up here. He used to be loved, and would make all sort of appearance at games and on TV. This year when he's involved with a ceremony he's pushed to the side,and barely mentioned. Than when he is, people give more of polite thanks for being a great player, and winning those 2 World Series titles, but we think you're a disgusting slob.

He's the reason we went to Cooperstown, but if this story would of gotten out before that, we wouldn't of gone. I question if Puckett would of even made last year.

Did the Puckett wife beating charged ever get filed? I liked Kirby, but this does kind of put a damper on his legacy. He was nice when I met him, though.

 

Oh, and Kahran, Clemens is an asshole. However, what he did to Barry Bonds, brought him up from "asshole" to "Fuckass" on my Asshole-o-Meter.

 

I totally agree with the pitchers on the armor thing. It's out of control. Guys lean over the plate, but have plastic shit all over them, so that they don't feel anything. That's bullshit. It's one thing to have the little ankle protector, in case you foul the ball off of your leg, or in Jermaine Dye's case, one on your knee. But someone like Barry Bonds has no right complaining, and I would hit him everytime he came up to bat. That's why HR's and offensive #'s are up. Guys are on top of the plate, and it reduces a pitchers ability to pitch inside. If you hit two or more guys by trying the inside corner, you get ejected and fined. They oughta fix it at these meetings they're having.

I guess it'd get annoying to keep hearing about it, but Deion is one of the top 3 cornerbacks of all times. It's hard to argue that he's not. He was a huge asshole though.

 

Tyson just seems fake to me. Like he's just doing it for attention. Rodman was the same way.

That is true. I think Tyson may do it because you really need to be in that crazy zone to go out and fight, plus his payday usually depends on how many people come to see him, but Rodman just wanted media attention. There's nothing wrong with that really.

Phillies fans are few, but very loyal. The team has sucked for so many years, yet people like myself can't help but cheer for them. The fans have been really enthusiastic this year and most of it is directed towards certain players, rather than the whole team. The following players have "fan clubs" at games.

 

 

Randy Wolf- The Wolf Pack- The oldest of the groups. The Phils even have had a wolf mask event, showing how popular the group is. When one of the groups members died this spring, the organization had a moment of silence before the game in his honor.

Brandon Duckworth- The Duck Pond

Terry Adams- The Adams Family

Pat Burrell- Burrell's Bunch, Burrell Full of Monkeys

Robert Person- Person's People

Jason Giambi- Giambi's Zombies

and my personal favorite, Vicente Padilla's Padilla's Flotilla, complete with sombreros and oars.
