Worst case of athletes showmanship

[Syringer]

I'm sure there's more, but it's early and I can't think of any more..feel free to add suggestions if need be.

the baseball fans attacking the first base coach (forgot the team) was pretty bad. was it in chicago?

err... i was thinking about fans being scummy. my bad. robby alomar comes to mind.

the NBA as a whole

That was more of a fan thing though, not the athletes themselves.

The athletes were fine last night. The fans should be killed

I voted for Bertuzzi.

But this, this was just sadText

"Simon was handcuffed by Milwaukee County sheriff's deputies after the game, taken to a police station and fined $432 for disorderly conduct."

Nothing will beat that soccer crowd a couple of World Cups back that killed that goalie for making a goal for the other team.

**EDIT**
Wait.. you're talkin about the OTHER way around.. not sure then.

What exactly happened last night?
I was busy attending a REAL sporting event to care about the "professional" stuff.

Fight at the end of the Detroit, Pacers game. Ended up in the stands after a fan hit artest in the face with a cup. I personally think the fans contributed more to it than the players, but they didn't do anything very bright either.

I voted for the chair throwing ... verbal abuse does not warrant a physical attack, especially from a professional athlete. And at least use your fists... throwing s#it is laughable.

last night, hands down

and fists up

I don't excuse what the players did, but I would have done the same thing. Artest was lying down on the scorer's table not fighting, and he gets hit with a beer. Stupid. After he gets out of the ground, two guys run on the court and fronted him. Stupid. Sportscenter kept showing the clips of Jermaine O'Neal punching one of those two fans, and then the cop threatening to pepper spray Artest. Wrong people copper. Players are supposed to be on the court, not fans trying to fight. Mininum 2 week jail time for any fan throwing anything, 4 weeks for any of them stupid enough to do it right infront of a camera.

wonder what would've happened if a Pacer fan threw it at a Piston player, while in Detroit.

Those fans weren't pissed at the player... they just got into the fracas because they felt comfortable... look at the retards up in the stands throwing beer and popcorn on the players as they left... real nice... why don't we all act like 4 year olds ?

I liked the incident years ago where a pissed off batter rushed Nolan Ryan on the mound. The old man rearranged his nose for him. Classic example of writing a check your ass can't cash.
