Sportsmanship

What ever happened to the jerry rices,michael jordans,tim browns, steve youngs...i mean the sportsmanship of todays athletes are pathetic including michael vick, marcus vick, matt leinhart, i think his name is shaun taylor(the guy from redskins)...does anyone else get sick and tired of it or is it just me

just to make a football fan happy...Michael Pittman

what did leinhart do?

did you not here the interview after the rose bowl

I think he's referring to Leinart's comments after the championship game.

yeah exactly

You've got a real hard-on for Leinart don't you? C'mon--admit it. It'll make you feel better... [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

And it's Sean Taylor--and he never spit in Pittman's face--go look at the video. Pittman said to the ref "he spit in my face" though the ref didn't see it, and the ref tossed him from the game, sight unseen (not a new phrase for referees, huh? [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]).

MV1's sportsmanship isn't that bad--not by today's standards anyways. One of the few qualms I ever had with him is when he ran for that TD in OT against Minnesota @Minny last year or year before, and threw the ball up into the stands and ran off the field into the tunnel. Not that bad, but unsportsmanlike to say the least.

MV2--agree 110%. Dude's a spoiled thug, and some of the blame on that falls to MV1, but at the same time, I think MV1 was trying to provide for MV2, and went over the line and MV2 became spoiled due to it, thinking he could do whatever he wants. I think MV1 needs to smack his lil bro around a lil bit and let him know he's out of line.

MV2's a habitual line-stepper. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

That is why I do not watch pro sports well not football and basketball. I see these guys making millions of dollars thinking everyone owes them something. What they do not realize is that when they do their crap on Sunday afternoon there are teenagers trying to do the same thing on Friday night. I know stripes can back me up on this we see kids trying to do some things the pros do and when we flag them for it they cannot understand why.

Yeah the whole Sean Taylor spitting thing was a joke.

if you do not think what leinhart said was pathetic...totally disrespecting everything texas worked for ...then you have some issues about sports it was uncalled for and proves that he is nothing but a sore loser and better get used to it in the nfl

how do you know he did not spit
