The countless number of failed drug tests in the Tour De France.
Michael Vick's dog fighting/kill of dogs
Or that NBA referee who bet on games he was reffing?

Well it depends. The Tour de France nonsense is really pathetic and the entire event is completely shot, not that anybody cared about it in the first place.
The Tim Donaghy scandal is far more detrimental to the NBA than Vick is to the NFL, but in terms of being the "worst" if half of this stuff is true about Vick than that is the worst in terms of morality or whatever, but the NBA will be far more jaded than the NFL when this is all over

That's pretty much what I'm thinking too. Fixing games is probably the biggest blow a sport can have. That would make it like pro wrestling basically. The Vick thing is sick, but won't have long term effects. Also with the Vick thing you still have people backing him up or pulling the race card which is rediculous.
The Tour De France is completely fucked though, and it's credibility is down the shitter, but I think the NBA thing will surpase that.

Yeh the dogfighting this is just another instance of being held down by the man! The government doesn't want african-american success!
The Tour De France as become the Tour De Joke.
Michael Vick fighting and killing dogs is just plain retarded and ignorant and i'll be pointing and laughing at how stupid of a human being that guy is. Wow he's fucking retarded. I hope he's living on the street when he gets out of jail. I hope he didnt save any money ( which he probably didnt ) cause this fucking retard deserves to be homeless for the rest of your life. Fighting dogs for 20 grand when you have contracts worth about 170 million dollars. Pure fucking genious.
The NBA ref scandal. Thats bad. Real bad. With the potential to be worse the the Black Sox scandal. We dont know yet. Its already bad but if this ref starts snitching on other refs or players. Wow. Really really bad.

Add in all the steroid controversy in baseball and the NHL being on life support and you have a pretty fucked up sports world right now.

Gambling. Dogfighting is cruel and awful, but it would hurt Michael Vicks career not the NFLs.

Depends on what the question is really
as a morale issue its dogfighting
as a credibility issue its the fixed games

I guess which is worse for the image of the league/sport.
And FR, I don't think the NHL is on life support anymore now than previously. It's always been a gate driven league.
