UNSPORTSMANLIKE CONDUCT

'Unsportsmanlike conduct' (or 'unsporting behaviour', or archaically 'ungentlemanly conduct') is a term used in many professional sports to refer to a particular player or team who have acted inappropriately and/or unprofessionally in the context of the game. Such behaviour is not necessarily illegal according to the sport in question's rules, but is frowned upon by the vast majority of both players and spectators. The term is distinct from cheating in that it also includes conduct meant to incite others.
