BroBible’s Top 10 Sports Cry Babies

In light of Roger Federer's rather fantastic waterworks display after losing the Australian Open last weekend, we've rounded up a list of other notable cry-fests in the athletic world. (Note: For the fact that it's a given, I've left out Dick Vermiel. Don't worry, I'm not that clueless.) 10. Poor Glen Davis. He recently realized that professional basketball just isn't the same as shooting hoops with your buddies in the backyard. At least they won't yell at you if your team's lead begins to diminish. Ease up Garnett―what, do you think you're getting paid to win? Oh wait, you are. [inline:Glenn]

9. I'd probably cry after winning a Super Bowl, too, but Hines Ward? Come on. The dude's like 6'9", 350lbs and takes linebackers down with his pinkies. One word: Pussy. [inline:Hines] 8. Okay, my heart actually dropped for Darius Washington in this one. Does giving up Memphis's chance at the NCAA tournament warrant the full-out bawl fest he executed? Perhaps not―but it comes pretty damn close. (Warning: Watching this may cause a great deal of pain and/or post-traumatic stress depending on your level of allegiance to Memphis.) [inline:Darius] 7. Staying with great college b-ball cries, Adam Morrison had a fairly fantastic breakdown after UCLA came back and defeated Gonzaga in the tourney his senior year. Although whether he was crying at the loss or realizing his mustache made him look like the ultimate child mol*ster is a question yet to be answered. [inline:Morrison] 6. One word: Tonya. [inline:Tonya] 5. Aside from every Packer game (win or lose), watching soccer is my favorite thing to do. I have the utmost respect for the game... But Cristiano Ronaldo gives a new meaning to "Field Fairy." Perhaps this will explain: [inline:ron1] or this: [inline:ron2] or this: [inline:ron3] Then again, he can do this: [inline:ronal] 4. Speaking of Green Bay, if you're not a football fan, or if your head was under a rock all of last year, perhaps you missed this little gem from the record-breaking, 3-time MVP, future Hall of Famer, helm of the Pack for 17 years, Brett Favre. Of course, in light of his re-emergence from "retirement," this one may not hold as much sentimentality as it did at the time. (Note to Jets fans: Expect to see many more of these types of press conferences in the near future.) [inline:farve] 3. Worst. Liar. Ever. [inline:Jones] 2. Perhaps telling Jim Mora to quit or be fired from the Colts may have made him "emotional," as he says. But lets be honest, the wall punch more than makes up for the tears. [inline:Mora] 1. And of course, the ultimate. Yep. Still funny. [inline:TO]
