Since we have a Favorite Moment In Sports thread, I thought it fitting that we have a least favorite thread, since every sports fan have had their nightmares at some point.
I'll start: Chelsea's UEFA Champion's League semi-final against Barcelona. Four penalty appeals were turned down, including one hand-ball, where it seemed the Referee was the only person on the continent who didn't see it.
Looking through youtube videos to find a suitable clip literally had me cursing under my breath. After the game, there was a huge backlash against UEFA, with many English fans claiming that UEFA did not want an all-English cup final two years running.
Barcelona went on to win the tournament.

Another one, I've gotta say, occured this morning, where it was reported that David Beckham would not be joining the England team in South Africa for the World Cup finals this summer, having ruptured his achilles tendon.
Feel free to leak your torment all over this thread.
