Gary Sheffield was spouting off in the press against Fausto Carmona and Victor Martinez in the Indians/Tiger series following Friday night's brawl in Cleveland. Why would Carmona hit Sheffield on purpose? The Indians were losing the game at that point!

Other crybabies:

Terrell Owens
Milton Bradley
Mike Tyson
Paul O'Neill

Who do you think are the biggest crybabies in sports? Not just athletes, but also coaches, managers, agents, etc.

Terrell Owens, Any Mets player...

catlover79 · 09-21-2008, 09:13 PM

You know, I never realized how scary-looking Gary Sheffield really is until I saw the video of the brawl (I'd missed the game).

catlover79 · 09-21-2008, 09:57 PM

How could I've forgotten to add Barry Bonds??

Others:

Bobby Knight
John McEnroe
Roger Clemens
Tonya Harding
Lou Piniella
Jeff Kent

I don't think Jeff Kent is a crybaby lol but I guess he's on the fence as far as that goes...

I've seen him whining several times on TV...a few times while he played with the Indians back in 1996.

I forgot about him on the Indians lol. Alright, you are right. I always picture his fights with Bonds lol. I'd put Manny Ramirez on the list, he just seems like a crybaby player that wants his way or no way. He wouldn't cut his hair and Torre had to deal with it, not Manny having to deal with Torre not liking it, it was backwards lol.

Wreckless · 09-21-2008, 10:20 PM

Add Allen Iverson. Practice? We talkin bout practice. It's practice.

Manny was always very quiet when he played with the Indians. Then he started to become a lot more vocal (usually whining) with Boston and now LA. Yes, Allen Iverson is a crybaby, too - and so is LeBron James. He may play for my hometown, but his attitude has always rubbed me the wrong way - going back to his high school days.

Wreckless · 09-21-2008, 10:24 PM

Yeah I was sort of thinking of Lebron too. Paul Pierce, I'm going to say he's a crybaby and cocky at the same time. He thought he was the best player ever just because they won a ring, when they could barely beat Cleveland and Atlanta of all teams lol.

Wreckless · 09-21-2008, 10:24 PM

Paul Lo Duca, he complains more then most baseball players I know. David Wright is the same way, along with Reyes.

^ Here's the Indians/Tigers brawl that took place here in Cleveland the other night:

Notice Gary Sheffield's bloody nose!!!

He was booed soundly by the Cleveland crowds the remainder of the series every time he came up to bat.

Wreckless · 09-21-2008, 10:27 PM

Yeah I saw that. He got chippy with my man Fausto Carmona.

It'll be interesting to see what sort of punishments are handed down - probably won't take effect until the beginning of next season. Even longer, if the players decide to appeal (which they probably will). OY!!!!

Is it just me, or does Gary Sheffield resemble Redd Foxx?
