During his career, Davenport was given the nicknames "Dookie" and "The Dump Truck." While playing for the Packers, a portable commode was placed inside of his locker during training camp as a rookie hazing prank, and a spirited letter writing campaign to the Green Bay team equipment manager asked in jest that he be issued jersey Number Two for practice, which is still referenced during the opening of the "D-List" show on WAUK ESPN 540 in Milwaukee.

Shane Warne whose "charitable foundation" in practice donated negligible amounts of cash to charity yet still found the money to pay it's CEO, (Warne's brother) a 6 figure annual salary? Shane Warne who once ordered Pizza to a Chinese restaurant where the Victorian team was having a team meeting because he didn't want to eat any 'foreign food'? Shane Warne who went on national TV, (in a show as classy as I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here no less), and claimed that he didn't believe in evolution and thought humans came from Aliens?

Yeah Warnie is a massive oval office that really turned me off cricket for a while.

Let's not forget AFL "legends" like Gary Ablett Sr & Wayne Carey. Gary, who took a 20 year old woman back to his hotel room and told her the heroin he was snorting was coke because apparently he didn't want her taking heroin but coke was okay. She died anyway and apparently he kept the "truth" secret because he said her family didn't want their daughter's name dragged through the mud even though it already had been. Yeeeeeah that makes sense. Either way, no charges, regarded as one of the game's greatest.

And as for Wayne I'll just quote wikipedia

quote:

In 1997 Carey pleaded guilty to indecent assault after grabbing a passing woman's breast on a Melbourne city street after 12 hours of drinking with teammates.[31] He allegedly told her "Why don't you get a bigger pair of tits".[32] Carey later settled out of court when the woman filed a civil suit against him.[33]

In 2004, while holidaying with his then wife, Carey was subject to arrest for a misdemeanour battery report while holidaying in Las Vegas.[18] He was placed in custody for one night then released. The local District Attorney elected not to pursue the case.[18]

Carey again became the subject of public comment in February 2006 when he announced he was leaving his pregnant wife Sally for model Kate Neilson.[35] His daughter Ella was born six weeks later. In December 2006 Neilson allegedly reported Carey to Australian police for domestic violence, alleging he had punched her in the face.[36] Neilson and Carey denied this report. Subsequently, US security guard Kyle Banks told the Nine Network's A Current Affair he saw Carey attacking Neilson while working at the exclusive W Hotel in New York City in October 2006. Banks said he saw Carey break a bottle of French champagne over his own head.[37]

On 27 January 2008 Carey was arrested after reports of a disturbance at his Port Melbourne apartment. Police had to subdue Carey with capsicum spray and he was seen hand-cuffed after allegedly assaulting the officers.[38]

Two days later, the Nine Network announced it would not renew the television contract of Carey after it was revealed that Carey had been arrested and charged with assaulting a police officer and Neilson in Miami, Florida on 27 October 2007, after he allegedly glassed Neilsen in the face and neck with a wine glass.[39][40][41] Police Lieutenant Bill Schwartz, however reported:[42]

When officers went and spoke to him, he immediately was belligerent, starting striking out at the officers, in fact, kicked one of the female officers in the face with his foot, elbowed another one in the side of the face. They had to wrestle him down and handcuff him. When he was in the police car, he used his head as a battering ram and tried to smash a hole between the front compartment of the police car and the prisoner compartment.

To stop Carey harming himself and damaging the car, the officers put him into a leather hobble restraint around his hands and legs.[42] Carey faced up to fifteen years in jail and US$30,000 fines. Additionally Carey was fired from commentary jobs at 3AW and the Nine Network following the coverage of the two arrests.[30] Ultimately Carey pleaded guilty to assaulting and resisting Miami police. In exchange for his guilty pleas, prosecutors agreed that Carey should only serve 50 hours of community service, attend alcohol and anger-management classes, serve two years probation, and pay US$500 to a Miami police charity.[43] As a consequence of his criminal record in the United States, Carey was refused an entry visa in October 2009.[44]

Carey was attempting to visit Barwon Prison in February 2012 to speak to indigenous inmates as part of a mentoring program, however he was found to have traces of cocaine on his clothing following a routine drug scan. Carey was informed that he could enter the prison if he submitted to a strip search. He declined and left the correctional facility.

Again, regarded as one of the game's greatest. Currently being paid big bucks to host coverage of the sport as if nothing had happened. I swear in Australia you can get away with anything if you're a sportsman who isn't aboriginal

E: to clarify I’m ok with the current policy as is but using ‘gendered slurs’ as the reason seems disingenuous bc it is that one word that is probatable, not gendered slurs as a whole as far as I’m aware.

Burying all the trauma from past nights
Burying my anger in the past

Rae Carruth arranged for his soon to be mother of his child to be murdered and she eventually did die along with the child

quote:

On November 16, 1999, near Carruth's home in Charlotte, North Carolina, Cherica Adams, a real estate agent he had been casually dating, was shot four times by Van Brett Watkins Sr., a night club manager and an associate of Carruth. Adams managed to call 911, and said that Carruth had stopped his vehicle in front of hers, and that another vehicle drove alongside and its passenger had shot her. Carruth then drove away from the scene.[8]

Adams was eight months pregnant with Carruth's child at the time. Soon after her admission to the hospital, she fell into a coma. Doctors delivered the baby via emergency caesarean section. Carruth went to the police and posted $3 million bail, on condition that if either Adams or the infant died, he would turn himself in.[8] Adams died on December 14, 1999. The baby, named Chancellor Lee Adams, survived, but suffered permanent brain damage and cerebral palsy as a result of being without oxygen for 70 minutes before he was born.[7][9]

At trial, prosecutors contended that Carruth hired Watkins and others to murder Adams because of her refusal to abort their unborn child.[13] Carruth's lawyer David Rudolf claimed that Carruth had been caught up in a drug deal gone bad. They claimed that on the night of the shooting, after Carruth had refused to fund the drug deal, Watkins shot Adams in a sudden rage when she "flipped him off" after he had attempted to ask her about Carruth's whereabouts.[14]

Carruth was found guilty of conspiracy to commit murder, shooting into an occupied vehicle, and using an instrument to destroy an unborn child. He was sentenced to 18 to 24 years in prison. He was found not guilty of first-degree murder, and was spared the death penalty.[15][16]

Carruth sent a letter in 2018 apologizing to Saundra Adams, the mother of Cherica Adams, via WBTV in Charlotte, North Carolina, for accusing her of lying about him in interviews for years.[1][17]

Not really a piece of poo poo off the court but Bill Laimbeer was accused of ruining basketball by Michael Jordan. Nobody could stop Jordan so Laimbeer would just foul the loving poo poo out of him and anyone else. His presence on the court just took people off of their game because they didn't know when they were going to catch a thumb to the eye or get pushed out of the air.

He has a video game called "Bill Laimbeer's Combat Basketball" which is kind of hilarious.

After Ty Cobb beat up that disabled heckler, his team went on strike to protest Cobb's suspension. So the Tigers had one day to find a new major league baseball team. They fielded three coaches who were former players, most of a college baseball team, and an amateur boxer who had never played baseball before. They lost 24-2.

Unrelatedly, let me add another Australian arsehole sportsmen. Matty Johns.

He was involved in a non-consensual group sex encounter with a woman, (He picked her up in a pub, and while they were having sex his mates climbed in the window and joined in and rain a train on her as she protested. Or maybe he was one of the guys that climbed in the window. I don't remember the details). Anyway for his part in this rape he appeared on a TV news show to apologize to his fans, his club, his wife and his family. At no point did he apologize to the woman he raped, nor, (if I remember correctly), face any legal repercussions for his part in a rape.

Oh, and like Wayne Carey, he kept his TV job as a commentator/pundit.

Not really, he said he wrote "gently caress face" on his bat so he could distinguish it from his teammate's bats during practice. He's mostly known for that card and being Cal Ripken Jr's younger brother.

Louis Chiron was one of the most successful and well known drivers in pre-war Grand Prix racing (the precursor to modern Formula One). At around the same time, a female driver by the name of Hellé Nice was also relatively successful, especially given the attitudes around gender at the time.

WW2 and it’s aftermath essentially stopped auto racing for a decade, but as it was starting to build up again, Chiron accused Nice of being a Nazi collaborator at a party in 1949. There was absolutely zero evidence of this, and it completely ruined Nice’s career permanently. She lived the remainder of her life in extreme poverty.

It’s not clear why Chiron thought she was a collaborator or what his motivations were.

Worth noting that cock-punching was a completely legal tactic in the UFC at the time.

Also worth noting that the guy getting repeatedly punched in the cock is a brutal gang rapist currently serving 27 years in prison for murdering his cellmate while serving a 9 year prison sentence for the aformentioned raping. So, you know, a few rungs further up the rear end in a top hat tree.
