Description

Take them out of the ball game - please!

From star running back Bryon "Bam" Morris' interesting (and totally illegal) sideline career to the 1950s Kansas City A's sneaky relationship with the New York Yankees; from French golfer Jean Van de Velde's epic choke on 18 at the 1999 British Open to the infamous Cleveland 10-Cent Beer Night riot of 1974; from Hungary's bloody 1956 Olympic water polo match with the Soviet Union to the definitive analysis of basketball coach Larry Brown's sartorial evolution and hoops maven Mike Fratello's hair devolution - if it's bad and sports related, then it's likely in The Worst of Sports.

An uproarious collection of the most controversial and regrettable moments in major pro and college athletics, with a sprinkling of the obscure, The Worst of Sports is a compendium of abject failure, harebrained decision-making, avarice, and rank stupidity - in other words, the stuff that some athletes, and fans, are best at.

Whether you're a casual fan or a face-painting zealot, you'll find plenty to root for (or against) in The Worst of Sports.
