Anybody remember when Sean Taylor was ejected in Tampa for spitting in Michael Pittman's face?

He was fined $17,000 for that.

Drug taking cheat Linford Christie after he got disqualified from the 1996 Olympic 100 metre final for two false starts.You were allowed two back then.

This low life refused to go back to the changing area and delayed the thing for ages.

I already knew all about his dodgy urine tests, from someone who was a very good athlete herself.

He also used to push all the little kids who wanted his autograph out of the way if the camera wasnt watching.Didnt like it much when i gave him some c**p

Talking of drug cheats who dont like abuse,Butch Reynolds a 400 m American runner complained about what i said to him while he was warming up in the outside lane.Steward just laughed.

But never mind all these unsportsmanlike acts,the one i really HATE and would love to meet up with is Michael Vick!!!

As an Englishman Ian you might understand the argument for 'Jose Mourinho' :-), an awful lot of 'unsporting behaviour' from that guy! I believe his latest is causing the mass brawl at Old Trafford.

Don't know if it has been mentioned, but Charles Martin body slam of Jim McMahon in 1986, at least 2 SECONDS AFTER McMahon had released the ball as the cheapest of the cheap. Martin had a bounty list; I think it was five Bears' players numbers written in marker on his towel, including McMahon and Walter Payton.
I still hate what Jack Tatum did in paralyzing Daryl Stingley in a pre-season game. Yeah, what Tatum did was pretty standard in pro football back in the day. But Tatum showed no remorse after the hit, nor when Stingley was in the hospital. (In fact between both teams, John Madden was the only one to visit Stingley initially after the game) And again, it was a pre-season game. So I still classify it as "unsportsmanlike" as any play in sports history.

Mourinho can show bad sportsmanship but then a lot of the top premier league managers are like that.Fergie for all his talent was pretty bad.The thing with Mourinho is he never gives the opposing team any credit.though i still find it hard to go beyond Christie,horrible drug taking thug,he possibly altered that race by the time it took to get off the track.

FYI, it was Tonya's husband who cooked up that scheme. And his bozo buddies who carried it out. And the attack was at the National Championships in Detroit, not in Lillehammer.

How about Marcus Peters throwing the official’s flag into the stands? He was suspended one game and was fined for his actions

Bringing this thread up to date, despite not watching the fight on tv I am also going with Myles Garrett helmet swing on Mason Rudolph of the Steelers. Just terrible

And then Garrett trying to bring the race card into it? Now, Rudolph could have acted with a bit more restraint and this whole thing could have de-escalated, however, to claim racism when there was no evidence thereof, is double downing on idiocy!
