John McEnroe caught plenty of grief. Baker Mayfield has caught some grief. Boy Brian Bosworth caught plenty. Baseball for whatever reason seems tame regardless.

A lot of that has to go to their level of success. McEnroe was my fav from that generation. I hated Connors. They were both pretty similar in temperament. Mayfield and the Boz were mouthy and didn't really back it up to a decent degree. 

Athletes that are more successful, or at least are entertaining, tend to get a little more of a pass. I'm speaking of "certain" types of athlets but i don't really want this to get too much deeper since it's not PnR. 

I get your sentiment and don't want to seem like it's a hard and fast belief, but it's a lot more prevalent than a lot of people care to admit.  

EDIT: Nicomo makes a good point above, that i agree with wholeheartedly.
