Top 10 Athletes Who Have Done Something Bad
I really wanted to make a sports list considering I like Basketball, Football, Tennis, Baseball and Soccer, but I didn't have an idea until now. Anyways the title explains it. Most of these will be dumb things although some will be serious. But all will be controversial.
There's no doubt about it. There is no
other athlete in terms of doing bad like Orenthal James Simpson. Definitely got away with murdering his wife. Only an idiot would sympathize & empathize with a killer.
It's pretty obvious he committed the murder. There's way more evidence for it than against it.
King of the bad boys.
He killed he dies

Hernandez was found guilty of first-degree murder in 2015 and sentenced to serve life in prison without the possibility of parole at the Souza-Baranowski Correctional Center. While on trial for Lloyd's murder, he was also indicted for the 2012 double homicide of Daniel de Abreu and Safiro Furtado, but was acquitted after a 2017 trial. ...read more.
I expected him to be higher on the list.
He actually killed a guy. He should be #1.
Should be lil bit higher

Benoit is kinda overrated in Wrestling Entertainment, he was just a legend for what he do not in Wrestling, you know what I mean.
Infamous for killing his wife and his 7 year old son, and then committing suicide on June 24, 2007.

What he has done is not as bad as most of the other people on this list. He's just the most famous. And it was just an allegation
He's still a good boxer, people looked at him negatively for alleged sexual abuse.
He was a really good boxer until that sexual assault charge.
He was still a good boxer but wasn't looked at the same way.

Shot and murdered his wife through a door and will deny it until the cows come home.
We all know what he did. But was it intentional?
He should also be higher.

This is the person, who bites opponents, as if he was a vampire or a dog.
The biting is bad but funny.
He was known for that incident in which he racially abused Patrice Evra

Child abuse probably deserves to be higher than #9 (his 4-year-old son's legs were with slash-like wounds). Peterson admitted he still uses some forms of punishment to "discipline" his son.
How could someone do this to there child like for real I would do anything for my family I would never do anything like that!
I honestly hope he rots. What he did to his child is unforgivable.
He recklessly injured his 4 year old son.

He's the first person I thought of when I read the title of this list. Surprised he isn't in the top 10


This is one of the biggest stories of an athlete. Came out very emotional speaking up about cheating on his wife. He was never again the great golfer he had been prior.
My wife cheated on me after 36 years and ran away rather than face the music or even give me 15 minutes face to face. She then hid behind a court gifted rest. order and proceeded to destroy my world as well... Cheating destroys so many marriages... all I wanted was a cordial divorce.. not a jail cell...
Wait do people go to jail for cheating on their wife. I don't think it is that bad.
Is that guy sent to jail for "speaking against" his wife?

Another racism incident in which he mocked a baseball player of asian descent and called him "little chinese boy" in spanish.

He assaulted his fiance in an elevator and dragged her to where the security cameras captured it.
I have a football card of him. I'm gonna throw it away.

What a total scumbag. To do what he did but more importantly to go after people so viciously who accused him of something he was guilty for; this guys moral compass is completely out the window
Yeah, Armstrong doped, and the story blew up like a bomb. But performance enhancing drugs aren't anything new in sports.
Once thought to be a wonderful athlete, now is a has-been, a literal dope who used performance enhancing steroids, cheating when he won the Tour de France seven times. Now he's stripped of his world records and has to live the rest of his pathetic life with the consequences and important fact: CHEATERS NEVER WIN. - SailorSedna

Will do anything to win super bowls and is the biggest sore loser in nfl history


What did he do?

Okay, I myself watched the controversial event and I have to say it was nothing compared to OJ Simpson or Christ Benoit. She had some anger issues and broke a couple rules, but hey, she didn't get needlessly physical (Mike Tyson).
I could understand why someone might put Venus Williams on here (that car crash she was in that killed someone, I think Venus could be innocent though) but Serena? No. She can be obnoxious but she's not necessarily bad per sé.
She was a respected tennis player until she did a really embarrassing temper tantrum after she lost a game.
Give the woman a break. She is a respectable Tennis player. There are murderers on this list..
He beat up a fan who mocked how badly the 76ers were doing.
He was a Canadian hockey player who was arrested for grabbing the butt of a police officer twice.
I've heard of that guy.

I actually met Patrick Kane before (I'm from Chicago) and was really nice. I never heard of the thing he did with the taxi cab driver before though.
A hockey player who was arrested after he beat up a cab driver.


He had two altercations in which were unreported in the midst of the 2018 season, and got released from the team for not saying (lying) it sooner than later. One of the brightest stars may just be another Ray Rice nobody saw coming.

A convicted murderer, of his then pregnant girlfriend, who left his own son mentally challenged and he's not In the top 5. Lower ranked then Tome Brady this list is a joke.
