It has recently been brought to the attention of NoMoreOrr.com that McFarlane Toys has put out action figures depicting the despicable Bobby Orr in game situations, namely, one of him flying through the air after scoring “the goal”.

When did it become good form to make action figures celebrating reprehensible characters in society?

If Bobby Orr deserves an action figure depicting him scoring the goal, then what other athletes should get figures, and in what poses? Here are a few possibilities that McFarlane might want to consider.

MLB:
Perhaps a figure of Barry Bonds or Mark McGuire sitting in the locker room injecting some steroids? Or one of Pete Rose on the phone with his bookie?

NFL:
Ray Lewis polishing his gun perhaps? Or maybe a figure of the recently suspended Pacman Jones showering a stripper with money? I’d buy that.

NBA:
Easy pick. Latrell Sprewell choking P.J Carlesimo. Another big seller might be Allen Iverson holding a .45 and a bag of marijuana. The possibilities are endless.

Hell, you could package all these figures in a box set celebrating the scum of professional sports! I mean if someone would want an action figure of Bobby Orr, why not collect ‘em all?
