Gary Bettman
Seriously now... 15 years ago the NHL was soaring! Games were on NBC, Fox AND ESPN, the league's popularity was so high that they decided to plant teams where there is no business being a hockey team (Nashville, really?). So yeah, Bettman is certainly the worst commissioner in sports today, possibly ever. I mean, yeah, Bud Selig is pretty bad, David Stern is no winner and Gooddell is a loser, but Bettman takes the cake!

Please watch if u don't then u can kiss my ass.

If any of you reading that comment, I apologize because my brother doesn't know any better and I already warned him not to do it again because it was unacceptable. Anyway but I still have my vote with Roger Goodell though.

And I have no idea why many people vote for David Stern. During a Pacer-Piston brawl, he gave Ron Artest a season ending suspension.

Without a doubt, Bud Selig. He basically allowed the steroid era to happen for 10+ years, and he's done nothing to address the fact games are needlessly getting longer and less interesting (speaking as someone who has attended many, many major league and minor league games in my lifetime, especially since 2001).

Selig has ruined baseball for me
-extended playoffs
-inter-league play
-all star game decides home field for WS
- luxury tax
- regulations on foreign player signings.
- and now instant replay
he's been an absolute disgrace and he's single handily ruined baseball.

The fans responded with resounding booing and threw trash and plastic beer bottles on the field for several minutes. And it was captured on telvision, all of it. Disgusting!

Why, what's wrong with Bud? I don't mind Selig. I don't like Goodell.

To me, someone has to get a new commissioner for the NFL. David Stern is no longer the commissioner for the NBA as he stepped down and was replaced by Adam Silver (something like that) who banned Lakers owner Donald Sterling for life after making racist comments.
