I’d like to nominate and present the case for William Clay Ford Sr., owner of the Detroit Lions.
Firstly, his disdain for the media and the “little people” who DARE tell him how to run HIS team caused him to cling for eight years to the worst General Manager in the history of professional sports. It took his son basically calling him a fool to the national media to finally bring Willie to ax his buddy Matt Millen.
Then, to reward the fanbase for sticking with the worst stretch of “professional” football in the NFL, the worst season in league (and perhaps all of sports) history, he then PROMOTES two of the cronies responsible for the catastrophe without ANY national search or interviews.
On top of this, he has never faced the music, refuses interviews, will not deign himself to appear before the commoners that support his team, and basically forces everyone under him to take the flak from the understandably irate fans.
Forget Sean Avery (who is just an idiot) or some coach who was simply doing his/her job (it’s not his/her responsibility to stop his/her own team from scoring)… ladies and gentlemen, William Clay Ford Sr. deserves this honor.
Now if only there was a Lifetime Achievement Award…
Agree 100% with Chemiclord. Not even TO, Palaxico, Vick or Ocho Cinco have done as much damage to their teams. 0-16 is as close as you can to destroying a team KING OF THE JERKS!!!
NY Giants Plaxico Burress for 1) taking a handgun to a club, 2) having it fall from his waistband INTO his pants and 3) finally shooting himself trying to retrieve it.
I’m sure that Plaxico Burris deserves the highest honors, but ther are so many escellent runners up. Michael Phelps is a close second. I guess his case goes to show the pot does weaken your judgement (letting yourself be filmed smoking it).
Leave M. Phelps alone. He made a dumb mistake (a set up by idiots in college), owned up to it (which hardly any other so called sports idols do) and is paying a price for it.
How many of you out there (playing jury, judge and executioner) haven’t done the same?
He hasn’t cost anyone their jobs, homes, retirement funds or lives, so chill.

Vote for Micah Grimes - the idiot coach who ran up the score in the girls high school basketball game in Texas, and thinks it’s o.k.

It’s high school. You’re at a Christian school. Be a teacher, not a businessman.
