Best Damn Sports Blowups (No. 41-50)

50. Carlos Perez goes medieval on water cooler

Always known as one of baseball's more animated characters during his time, the high-strung southpaw took his frustrations out on an unsuspecting water cooler in the Dodgers dugout one evening. In UFC terms, Perez played the part of Chuck Liddell and the water cooler was Johnny Weir — translation: a one-sided battle.

49. Dennis Rodman uses his head

When you think of calm, cool and collected, Dennis Rodman is not the first athlete who comes to mind. Exhibit A was one NBA evening when he decided to use his head for more than thinking about what color or hair he'd paint on after the game.

48. Barry Bonds put in his place

One thing that has rubbed anti-Bonds fans the wrong way is the fact that his current team, the San Francisco Giants, help feed the ego-driven monster by conceding to his every whim (aka his leather recliner by his barricaded locker). It may be as hard to remember as when Barry was actually thin, but his one-time Pirates skipper Jim Leyland reamed into the mercurial Bonds in an extended spring training "shout-out" caught on video.

47. Sam Wyche digs the Dawg Pound

In a late '80s battle of Ohio between then AFC Central rivals Cleveland and Cincinnati, Bengals head coach Sam Wyche was forced to tale to the public address microphone mid-game in Cincy after the unruly crowd began littering the field with foreign objects (luckily, not actual foreigners). The wily Wyche reprimanded the crowd, but coyly tossed out the line, "You're not in Cleveland." Nice touch, coach.

46. Pitino loses it on the Celtics' faithful
