In 2007, Eraelia Glisson was caught hosting a party. But what made this party of particular interest to the police wasn’t the noise level. Glisson was hosting a party for her Bobby Sox softball team – and giving the underage members alcohol.
She pleaded no contest to the allegations and spent 90 days in jail with [...]

When you have been blessed with the good fortune to make it onto a major league sports team, why would you risk blowing that chance with something like drug possession? It’s like all that good luck goes to their head and they think they are invincible. Or perhaps they think themselves above the law?

CARACAS, Venezuela — Free agent reliever Ugueth Urbina was arrested and held Tuesday pending a formal charge of attempted murder.
Last month, Urbina and a group of men allegedly attacked five workers with machetes and poured gasoline on them in an attempt to set them on fire. All five were injured, some of them with cuts [...]

Detroit slugger Miguel Cabrera hasn’t exactly been making a model citizen of himself lately. First he went and got himself royally sloshed right before a key game when his team was making a play for the American League Central title. Smooth move.

I’m just having too much fun with all the drop kick/karate kicks that have managed to crop up in baseball during the history of the sport. Another fantastic example to add to the collection would have to be Chan Ho Park and the time he drop kicked Tim Belcher. Belcher had tagged Park, and after [...]

Baseball’s Bill Madlock has managed to go down is sport’s history as a man with a temper. Seriously folks, it’s just a game.
Madlock also had a fiery temper, and was involved in several incidents (including the 1980 episode) that exemplified it:

August 16, 1975: In the first inning of a game against the Houston Astros at [...]

Dominican hitter George Bell makes this list for attempting to dropkick pitcher Bruce Kison in 1985. I say attempt, since Kison had plenty warning of the impending violence as Bell charged the pitcher’s mound. As Bell flew through the air in what was certainly intended to be an epic flying karate kick, Kison easily side [...]
