Ben Roethlisberger
Even though this Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback won the Super Bowl with his team in both 2005 and 2008, his legacy is overshadowed by some troubling allegations. Ben Roethlisberger or Big Ben, faced numerous sexual allegations against him.
Women in Georgia and Utah accused him of sexual assault, but never filed charges. The NFL suspended him for six games, but reduced that to four in 2010.
Al Campanis
Al Campanis was the general manager for the LA Dodgers in 1968 until 1987. Oh, he also previously played for them for a season. Sadly, this man made some racist remarks on Nightline. During his live interview, when speaking about the 40th anniversary of Jackie Robinson breaking the color barrier, Ted Kopper asked his opinion on the lack of African Americans in GM and manager positions. To this, he replied that black people lack some of the necessities.
Broadcaster Koppel of Nightline really bent over backwards to make Campanis downplay his comments to seem less racist, but he simply didn’t budge. Shortly after this incident, he resigned permanently from the MLB world.
