    Oh, forgot to give a nomination.

    I'll go with players whining about Bruce Bowen in a weak attempt to work the officials. Happens every year. Fortunately, the NBA usually doesn't buy it.

    MLB-
    no salary cap (are you serious)

    NCAA-
    constant underrating of the SEC (Michigan more deserving than FLA? are you serious)

    BCS (nuff said)

    ESPN-
    over hyping of little things... "even if Mcnabb is healthy will Garcia take his place"? (are you F'n serious?)

    NFL-
    non guaranteed contracts... why is their players union so feeble? They need more clout and respect. They get cut like dogs, players move constantly, no sense of "team" to the fans anymore.

    Also... West Coast bias in CFB, Yankees/Sox run down my throat, and any sport without black athletes. Yes Adrian Peterson would eat Lance Armstrong's face in bicycling.

    So, you're OK with players trying to intentionally hurt players. Something tells me if he played for the Jazz, you'd be whining that he wasn't kicked out of the league by the worst officials of all-time.

    The guy's a dirty, b****. If you want to root for him, fine. Just call a spade a spade.

    no freakin' kidding! i can't understand why it's so hard for defenders to overplay him a bit to his right. the first thing i do when i realize someone is left handed is over play them a bit. it certainly makes them less effective.
