Yes. The Iraqi national team was run by Uday "Chuckles" Hussein, who, at various times, flogged, bastinadoed, and beat team members whose performance was not up to expectations, shaved their heads, forced them to kick concrete soccer balls, and dragged them through gravel quarries. I believe there was a Youtube video of Uday personally beating the soles of one player's feet with a cane. I've had tough bosses before but that?...
