Greg Oden's NBA career definitely hasn't played out the way we expected it to. Back in 2007, when he was drafted No. 1 overall by the Portland Trail Blazers, the thought was that the former Ohio State center would go down as one of the best big men in NBA history before his career was over. But thanks to a series of injuries and some personal issues—he struggled with alcohol abuse a few years back—Oden's career has been a wash. Last season, he suited up for the Heat, but he's a free agent again and he might not catch on with another team next season.

His chances of finding a new team went from slim to slim-to-none last week, too, when Oden allegedly got into a fight with his ex-girlfriend and punched her in the face. The police were called at around 5 a.m. on Thursday morning to a home in Lawrence, Ind. and Oden was arrested a short time later and charged with battery. It's a charge that could result in NBA teams refusing to take a chance on him in the near future, and a charge that could signal the end of his career.

With all of that in mind, the last week of Oden's life has pretty much sucked. But he's not the only sports-related person who has experienced struggle over the course of the last seven days. From an NFL owner who got caught in some very compromising positions with a couple of young ladies to an ESPN personality who got suspended for buying up billboards that poked fun at LeBron James, these are the 10 Sports People Who Had a Worse Week Than You.
