So many worthy nominees. Who do you think was the biggest turkey is the sports world this year?

A few ideas:

Michael Vick
Barry Bonds
Bud Selig
Pacman Jones
Isiah Thomas/Jim Dolan/Stephon Marbury

SI.com has a list of 22 poential turkeys including most of the ones I anmed as well as Marion Jones, Tim Donaghy, Bill Belichick, OJ Simpson, Nick Saban and Charlie Weis.

I was trying to find the thread you started a few weeks ago Georgie about how disgusted you are w/ the current state of the sports world, but couldn't find it...Here is where that link belongs. ...They're all turkeys.

My vote goes to Vick.

My vote goes for all of the above, and for sports media in general. I know the media does not create problems, nor should they be chastised for covering it, however there seems to be a certian hypocrisy about how they love someone when they're scoring, but love it more when they get to tell the world how terrible they are. Case in point is Vick.

P.S. I know I can't spell...that's why I'm not in the media.

Since I'm a teacher, you get an "A" for spelling today.

Oh yippee! I wasn't sure about chastised, and hypocrisy didn't look right to me either.

I'd have to say Roger Clemens and Andy Pet(ty)ite. Those suckers backstabbed Astros fans, to go play for a winning team. And they, themselves, didn't contribute much to the Yankees. Karma is good.

Ooh I had forgotten about the Roger Clemens drama! Probably because it's become an annual event. Good call Ausmus!

My female vote goes to Marion Jones who makes Ben Johnson look like an amateur cheater.

My male vote goes to Barry Bonds who makes Pete Rose look like he deserves his election to the Baseball Hall of Fame yesterday.

Harrumph!
