    Baseball has the most ejections. Almost every week theres a manager,coach or a player getting ejected.

    Football has the least ejections. I see players and coaches yelling at refs and they get ignored.

    I know you actually meant Ejaculations. Because your obviously all about the Ejaculations, searching high and low for more Ejaculations. I bet you're a baseball fan, because it has the most Ejaculations, fumbling with balls and that hard bat.

    An *organist* got thrown out of a baseball game once. I remember this because it happened right here in Omaha...

    Also I think it happened to at least one mascot. That weird orange guy from the Montréal Expos.

    That being said: Ejections are pretty boring nowadays. Nobody gets thrown out like Earl Weaver, Billy Martin or Lou Piniella used to do.

    As for football: I didn't even know you *could* get ejected from a football game. Most of the things that get guys ejected from, say, a baseball game, are pretty much standard practice in football...

    Yelling at the ref in Football is very likely to led to at least a Yellow Card and potentially a red card, if a Manager or other non-plaer does they would likely have to leave the dug-out. But even spitting can get you a card in Football.

    American Football has ejections for hard fouls or fighting on occasion, but there is pushing and shoving on almost every play. Basketball, for the most part, has managed to get fighting out of the game (when it happens, it is news), but they have two technical fouls leading to an ejection. Six personal fouls disqualifies a player from the game but I'm not sure if you want to count that as an ejection. Same with a red card in Association Football (Soccer).

    Hockey seems to be low on ejections. Fighting is approved of or at least only mildly scolded. You have to do something big to get kicked out.

    in NHL you get two major penalties you're gone. But minor penalties all you get is more time in the box

    I don't recall seeing many ejections in a volleyball game.

    Yeah, but you don't see many major penalties in a game.

    Fighting is a 5 min major misconduct. Do it twice and you're gone

    The NHL knows that fighting is part of the appeal of the sport.

    Also punching is less likely to injure you on ice skates because getting hit pushes you backwards. That's why they immediately stop the fights the moment one person falls over, because punching could seriously hurt you lying down against the ice.
