John McEnroe goes bananas at Stockholm Open -84

What a child

lmfao now thats funny stuff

I know why he behaved like this (and still does to this day). He cames from a "well to do family" born with a silver spoon shoved up his ass. Nothing wrong with that.

But he probably acted this way (like a spoiled brat) whenever he didn't get his own way since he was a kid. A poor loser a well.

I admired his unique style of play and all his tennis records, but even to this day...he's a dick!

i used to love it when mcenroe lost it , i remember i used to look forward to every tournament just because of his outbursts lol

Verbal abuse is wrong!!! It does not matter if the person is male, female, black or white!! This is wrong!!!!

I don't know how Mcenroe was able to get away with all that he did. I wish he had been fined as heavily as Serena was or kicked out altogether. Why did they put up with this jerk?

He got away with it because he was the most gifted and entertaining player in the history of the game to watch. This guy filled the stands. All the pros came out to watch him play. He was awesome and the outburts added to his lure.

Lets face it folks.Tennis is like watching paint dry. The only time that i have ever watched it while channel surfing around was when that grunting russian chick wud be playing or when Johnnie Mac playing way back when.

Haha XD

Yea Johnny Mac was the center of attraction on the Pro tour, but still, his tirades like this were unacceptable. People perceived him as a "spoiled brat Yank", but he was only like this on the tennis courts. He didnt trust the linesmans calls, and I have to agree that some of the Umpires at Wimbeldon are really pathetic. The one had really thick glasses!
