Bill Romanowski.

Kenyon Martin, Ron Artest.

Mike Tyson.

Roger Clemens, Guillermo Mota, Gerald Williams.

Dale Hunter. Still love him. His taking out of Pat LaFontaine in the playoffs was classic.

 

[bullring]

ron hextall was pretty good at taking guys knees out.

 

[QuickLearner]

Ty Cobb...not that I emember him per se.

 

[Rawpimple]

AJ Duhe defense lineman for the dolphins against the jets in the AFC champ game in the rain...his uniform, arms, and face were filthy.

 

[snoopol]

Romanowski and Bertuzzi

 

[Duckstabber]

Lambier for sure, and for football, Hardy Nickerson. Aa a Buc fan, I'll always love the man for what he brought and helped build, but he was dirty. In the 1997 home opener for the Bucs, Nickerson slid and nailed Steve Young with his knee , slightly after the whistle, knocking him out of the game. No penalty if I recall, but I had a good shot of the field, and he could have held up, imo.Cheap. (of course, as a Buc fan, it didn't bother me to see Jeff Brohm trotting onto the field to replace Young :>Grin>) Sapp grabbed Rice's facemask in that game, which ended Rice's season, although it was clear 99 wasn't trying to hurt anyone. But I'm sure Hardy's play was. Hardy also spit in William Floyd's face one year. Hell of a player when he was here though.

And for any oldtimers, anyone remember the old ABA? I always thought Billy Paultz was a punk. I mainly remember him with the Nets. Was a KY Colonel fan, and those guys had some games.

Cool topic.

Derek Sanderson.

 

[kermit16]

maybe #1 on the list

Conrad Dobler

and how about

Jack Tatum (ask Darryl Stingley)

agree about Ulfie - very "underrated" as far as being dirty but he was right up (down?) there

Dobler in a walk !

 

[Wrigley]

Kenny "The Rat" Linesman

He was a cheapshot artist with his stick and then when challenged to drop the gloves Paul Holmgren would step in to fight his fights

Add Karl Malone and you've got the dirtiest duo in the history of sports. How many "accidental" elbows did Malone hit guys in the face with during his career?
