When Roger "The Rocket" played for the Red Sox, his nickname was 'The Crybaby'. He bitched and moaned about everything. They didn't treat his wife right in the stands, he didn't want to carry anything (luggage, etc.) on the road. Talented, without a doubt, but a real prima donna.

Moe "It ain't about the money" Vaughn, with the Sox. Always crying about money. He ended up playing in Las Angeles, got hurt in the first game and was never the same.

Carl Everett, another whinebag Sox player. Always complaining about umpires, and didn't get along with his fellow players. Just one big complaint machine. Good riddance when we ditched him.

Manny Ramirez. He's great now, but up until a few years ago, he was always complaining, saying he wanted to play for the Yankees, lol. He thought he could get more money than the Sox would pay him, so they called his bluff and put him on waivers. No takers. He has a much better attitude these days.

LaDainian Tomlinson. Somebody want to give this guy a box of tissues? He's crying all over TV, blaming everybody for his team's lousy season.

Any players or coaches that come to mind as crybabies?

Nothing personal, Janice. I always thought of Belecheck as a cry baby, He never whined in the media, but whenever his team was playing badly he looked like he was going to breakdown and cry.
And the Patriot's bashing continues, lol! Here in Boston, we laugh because Belichick never smiles at his post-game press conferences, even if the Pats won by 75 points. Looks like he's delivering a eulogy. I always ask my husband, what does it take to make this guy smile? Belichick's got a poker face. That's what you're seeing. The topic is Crybabies in Sports, as in whining in the media or pitching fits on the field.

I'm sorry if you think I'm bashing the Pats, I'm not. I see you can't say anything abt the Pats without you coping an attitude. I won't contribute anymore to this thread.... Happy?
Sure am, if that's your only contribution. I didn't cop an attitude, just called it as I saw it.

I don't think Janice was copping an attitude, You were bashing Belichick who is part of the Patriots and there was nothing wrong with her reply as far as I'm concerned.

John McEnroe. Biggest crybaby ever, combined with a vicious temper. Bad combination.

Right, I was even joking in my reply. Thanks.

Magic Johnson was considered a crybaby

He smiled briefly after the Pats beat the Colts and after 5 seconds he regaind control of himself and it was gone-lol

What was he crying about? I just asked my husband, and he can't remember.

I'm telling you, the guy never smiles. It's a running joke here.

The referee not calling a foul

A Crybabies in Sports thread would never be complete without Ryan Leaf.

And how about Latrell "I can't feed my family on 7 million per year" Sprewell.

Gary Sheffield comes to mind. He was and still is bitching about money and how he isn't paid enough.

Milton Bradley is another biotch. Always bitching and moaning about something.

The referee not calling a foul

If that's the only reason then you might as well have 'Crybaby' stitched onto the jersey of practically every other NBA player because I'm sure he's not the only one guilty of that.

Former NBA player Derrick Coleman. With the most minor injury he had, he wouldn't suit up for a game. He always was on the bench in a suit when whatever team he played for needed him.

T.O. ? I'm shocked. :lol:

T.O. ? I'm shocked. :lol:
Me too. :eek:

:lol:

I worked with one guy who couldn't stand Paul O'Neill (Yankees). My co-worker called him the biggest crybaby on planet Earth!

There's also fellow Yankee David Wells. The Indians fans would ALWAYS insult him from the stands, and he would ALWAYS whine about it in the media. :rolleyes: My vote goes to Terrell Owens. Now THERE'S a :crybaby:!

:lol:

I'm telling you, the guy never smiles. It's a running joke here.
He never smiled in Cleveland either, but then he never had a reason to. :lol:

He never smiled in Cleveland either, but then he never had a reason to. :lol:
:lol: He is one sourpuss, really. I'm not even that wild over the guy. As a coach, he's one of the best. Personally, he doesn't have much personality. I don't like that he was involved with a married woman, and drove his own wife crazy. Belichick is a lot of things, but a crybaby is not one of them.

Yeah, and I'm Gwyneth Paltrow. :rolleyes: :lol:

Just for the record, Wells and Clements bitched with the Blue Jays too! :lol:

As for Jeremy Roenick, he wasn't HALF the whiner "Crybaby Brent" Hull was....He decided to start playing for the American Jr/Olympic teams because he felt that he wasnt getting enough recognition on Canada's ntl teams, he complained when he was drafted , he complained when his linemates were traded, constantly whined about icetime, that he wasnt getting enough passes, etc........As one of the NHL's all-time great goal scorers, he's sure to make the hall of fame when he's eligible, but.....I'd sure love to see him snubbed, so he could bi*ch about that tOO!:lol:

Honorable Mention: Eric Lindros:
He litterally took Jr Hockey hostage, refusing to go to the team where he was drafted in the OHL, then did it again when he refused to join the Quebec Nordiques (Cause he was afraid he "couldnt get endorsements" there, since he spoke no French<<He should have taken acting lessons instead of hockey lessons), fortunately for the fans in Colorado, Lindros' selfishness caused Quebec to lose the franshise (indirectly) and Colorado (Where the Nords relocated) to WIN the Stanley cup; largely with the players that were aquired in the Lindros trade deal! (It's moral justice that Lindros never won the Stanley Cup!)

I'm pretty sure that's just his on camera personality. Andy Reid is the same way, he is not comfortable speaking on camera, only when he does radio. So when we see Andy and Bill on TV we are not seeing the Real them.

3% Jeff Gordon 2,159

Jeff Gordon??? wtf...those bigotted redneck Earnhardt Sr. fans need to get their goddamn heads out of their asses.


sigh...anyway, they want a whiner in NASCAR? Look at Matt Kenseth. Nothing is ever right with that *****. He could have the best car and he still finds something to complain about. And nothing is his fault. Robby Gordon as well. That guy is a worthless idiot.

eric dickerson and scottie pippen spring to my mind when i hear anyone talking about crybabies in sports

I think we can add Ozzie Guillen to this list!!! The man has terminal diarrheaofthemouthitis!!! :crazy:

Two Words...

LeBron James!
