Five Cat Fights We'd Like to See

We'd love to see Bobby Bowden and Joe Paterno turn on each other.

By Lang Whitaker, SI.com

By now you've probably seen the dust-up yesterday between Danica Patrick and Milka Duno. It was odd, yes, but more than anything else it was amazing, definitely. I want more. Here are five other pairings I'd like to see escalate into wimpy towel hostility, mostly for humor's sake.

1. Bobby Bowden vs. Joe Paterno: Might be like watching the tortoise versus the tortoise. I'd definitely order it on PPV.

2. Roger Clemens vs. Brian McNamee: I'm pretty sure I know how this would play out, but it might be entertaining to watch anyway.

3. Bill Parcells vs. Jason Taylor: The Tuna seems to style himself as a tough guy but armed with just a towel against Jason Taylor, I wonder if Parcells would stand down?

4. Ana Ivanovic vs. Ashley Harkleroad: For obvious reasons.

5. Rafael Nadal vs. Roger Federer: Maybe these two could duel with their headbands instead of towels.

Which sports twosome would you like to see square off next? Let us know below...

Peyton Manning and Tom Brady:
Put an end to the silly debate by drunk football fans by settling it like men.

With the possible exception of Michael Jackson vs. Weird Al, cat fights are necessarily between women; not between dudes.

For those in the NY/NJ/Philly area: Mike Francesa vs. Howard Eskin

From the R.I.P. files: Chick Hearn vs. Johnny Most

Why McNamee vs. Clemens? How about Bonds vs. Clemens?

From the very current news department: Larry Mendte vs. Alycia Lane, with Rich Eisen as the special guest referee.

Geez! You guys seem to be missing the point. You gotta have cats to have a cat fight.

My own top five in sports:

-Maria Sharapova vs.Alla Kudryavtseva, who dissed her Wimbledon outfit this year AFTER she'd beaten her in straight sets.

-A classic: Nancy Kerrigan vs. Tonya Harding, no foreign objects

-Serena Williams vs. Venus Williams: not very likely, but very intringuing, considering their different physiques

-Hope Solo (US soccer goalkeeper) vs. Briana Scurry (also goalkeeper): again, the former disssed the latter's performance after a 2007 World Cup loss. Google Solo for a glimpse.

-Michelle Wie vs. Natalie Gulbis: the Scuffle in the Rough
