Kyle Busch on top 50 dirtiest players list

NASCAR Sprint Cup star Kyle Busch has joined a dubious list of professional athletes after being named as one of the top 50 dirtiest players of all time in any sport.

The list, compiled by Complex Media, takes into account the number of penalties and seriousness of the offences.

The No. 1 public enemy in sports according to CM is — drum roll please — hockey player Marty McSorley for his 3,381 NHL penalty minutes and for his vicious hit on Donald Brashear back in 2000.

Busch, by comparison, is a relative angel coming in at No. 38 on the list. The only other NASCAR driver to make the list — Carl Edwards — is at No. 48.

To put it all in context, however, ear-biting convicted rapist Mike Tyson was only No. 40 on the list.
