Father's Day 2011: Awarding the Most Controversial Dads in Sports

Tom Brady is a dad by two really hot women. George Foreman has 5 sons named George. And Isiah Thomas reportedly tried to use his daughter in a cover up. The sports world is full of great role models, and fathers who have influenced some of the biggest sports personalities of our time. Or players who’s fathers shaped them? Is it really true Todd Marinovich’s pops never let him have a Big Mac? Why didn’t Mike Bibby play college ball for his own blood? However your feel about Hard Knocks, the Jets, or Antonio Cromartie, that was fantastic TV, watching him struggle to name his own offspring. Nobody is perfect. Not everyone has the perfect father. And not everyone is a great Dad. That’s life. And when it comes to sports, some people have had influences that were funny, sad, surprising, or plain pathetic. What other way can you explain going with your son, onto the field, to pummel a baseball coach? Take a look and see which dad gets which medal for fatherhood, and tell us if we forgot anyone.
