This week, we check out an under the radar story, of a not so successful athlete, who turned out to be a terrible person. He achieved great success in college, but pro success eluded him. No problem, he decided to coach, but that's all thrown of the rails by him, committing a most awful crime, getting a break from the law, then making it even worse. All of this, with a hugely shocking ending... Quite the mess!

This week, we look at a man who could have been one of the greatest basketball players of all time. Number 1 overall draft pick & every accolade that exists. He was even Michael Jordan's idol. So, how did this sure thing turn so wrong? Cocaine. Cocaine. Oh, and cocaine. His career was even ended at Studio 54, of all places. A tragic story, that everyone should know about.

This week, we c heck out a man with possibly double the brain damage, as he was both a football player & a pro wrestler. His attitude made his football career less of an option, but he was perfect for wrestling. The only problem is that he can't seem to stay out of police custody. His charges are long & varied, but he couldn't stop doing one particular crime... bank robbery. A crazy guy & a crazy episode!

This week, we explore a story that was seemingly very predictable. This is the first episode ever, where we cover the sibling of a CIS alum. He was aggressive, and very violent, which made him a pretty decent MMA fighter, but a terrible fit for any other situation. His constant bouts of violence, fueled by anger, and cocaine left people in fear, right up until the end of the story, which is possibly the craziest ending of any of our stories!

This week, we check out someone who had the world in the palm of his hands, only to spike it to the ground, and stomp on it, with both feet.

This week, we dig deep on a man who seemed to be on the cusp of greatness. A hight first round draft pick in the NFL, with a record signing bonus... but it all went wrong.

This week, we look at a man who came up under the iron curtain, only to come to North America, and become a hockey star. He was quiet, respectful, and well liked.

This week, we explore the life of a man who has a magic name in wrestling, but a very common name at the police station. He was groomed from birth to continue his family's legacy, and be the standard bearer of the next generation.

This week, we have a long & winding story about a man who is still very famous, and has used that fame to every advantage. He came from the toughest of circumstances to somehow become a Hall of Fame NFL player. He also did a bunch of cocaine, and never met 4 or 5 strippers that he didn't like. He was a jerk, and embraced it. But would that keep him from a television career? Of course not! You won't believe some of the craziness!! PLUS... THE 2021 SCUMMIES!!

This week, we check a criminal with a need for speed. From race cars, at least, but his life off the track is way crazier than driving 200 mph, in a circle. His scams & schemes are honestly mind boggling, and netted him proceeds in the billions of dollars, which helped him finance his race team, and an extravagant lifestyle, that puts most of even the richest athletes to shame. But, just like the racers behind him, the law eventually caught up, and leveled the largest penalty in CIS history!

This week, we dig deep on a guy who always seemed to be almost great, but could never quite get over the hump. One area where he was an all star, however, was getting arrested.

This week, we explore the crazy life of a man who was snuck out from behind the iron curtain, to live his dream of playing professional hockey. As soon as he got to the US, he turned into a loud, arrogant, show boating, irresponsible alcoholic, who refused to obey laws, or rules. Good news is, he fit right in, but the bad thing is, he got arrested way too much. Does he turn it around, or was he better off on a bread line? Sneak away from a communist nation in the dead of night, immediately turn into the worst American stereotype, then be clueless as to why no one likes you with Petr Klima!!

This week, we take a look at a very accomplished individual, both in his sport, and at the police station. He was an American hero, an Olympic gold medalist & even WWE & TNA champion.

This week, we find one of the craziest stories in criminal athlete history! He had a rough start, as his dad was stabbed to death when he was 3 days old. He had a decent boxing career, even fighting Mike Tyson, but he was also leading a double life, as an enforcer for a brutal drug gang in West Baltimore. The same gang that was portrayed as "The Barksdales" in The Wire. And you'll never believe who betrays him, and finally turns him in for his vicious string of murders! This one is something special!

This week, we explore one of the most unlikely stories we've ever covered. A low level MMA fighter, who only chose to fight as a second career, as it took a back seat to robbing drug dealers, running a drug empire, torturing retirees with hot kitchen utensils, and murdering people in cold blood. He had to stop fighting, due to a little murder rap, that sent him on the run to South America, where he somehow started another mini empire! This story is unreal!

This week, we visit one of the most requested stories out there. His father was a Hall of Famer in the NFL, and he followed in his dad's footsteps into the league, even the same position. Though his playing career wasn't as good as Dad, his crime career is certainly as prolific as anyone in sports history. Let's just say that he liked to "show off", but that isn't all... He also commits some of the most horrific crimes we've ever covered. This one is a bit gross! Follow your father's lead into the NFL, have your teammates grossed out by your constant pornography watching, and be lucky that you're not going to prison for life with Kellen Winslow Jr!!

This week, we dig into the nooks & crannies to find someone who only had a brief moment of sunshine in the NBA, despite his work ethic & talent. He instead filled his time with playing overseas & in smaller pro leagues, as well as starting a couple of businesses. Unfortunately, that were illegal, and had to do with drugs, guns, train robberies & more! We laugh ourselves silly at what can only be described as seriously nuts. A true gem in the rough!

This week, we go back in time, for a story that wouldn't even be possible, today. He was born in 1926, lived through the depression by learning to gamble, at a young age. He joined the Navy for WWII, but only because his choice was the military, or jail. He ended up in military jail, though, due to his constant violence & disappearing. His wild lifestyle put him in business with both two bit hustlers & famous gangsters. This all results in a brutal murder, an amazing prison baseball league career, and even more crime! A wild, alcoholic roller coaster ride! Get in with 1940's Los Angeles gangsters, play very briefly in the major leagues, and never, ever learn your lesson with Ralph "Blackie" Schwamb!!

This week, we dive back into the "brain damage sports" with a boxer who had plenty. Plenty of fights, plenty of accolades, plenty of money, plenty of brain damage, plenty of cocaine, and definitely plenty of arrests. He was an intelligent, big afro wearing, own clothes making gourmet chef, and heavyweight champ of the world, as well. But his true love was cocaine. You'll be shocked to hear what he considers "personal use", and even more shocked by his violence against women. He's a true screw up, and an instant CIS classic! Start boxing & doing cocaine while in middle school, eat a large plate of pasta before a heavyweight title match, and always say "I'm good, now" with Michael "Dynamite" Dokes!!

This week, we go somewhere we don't normally go, to discuss the utterly sad, and truly sorry story of an Olympic Figure Skater. She began skating at the age of 3, and rebelled pretty much ever since. She smoked, fought, went out to party, and did all the things that perfect little figure skaters aren't supposed to do... Which is fine, until you get into home invasions & meth use & distribution. It went really wrong, but can she turn it around?

This week, we transport back to the 70s to look at a man who had it all, talent, ability, style... and a rip roarin' drug habit that consumed all in its path. So much so, that he went from being the first Black starting quarterback in the post-merger NFL era & being on the cover of Sports Illustrated, all the way down to a ton of arrests, including robbing a fast food restaurant at knifepoint, and eventual homelessness. Did he ever make it back, or did his lifestyle finally take him under, for good? This one is indescribably nuts!

This week, we check on a man who was supposed to be the greatest player, ever in his sport. He was even told that by the actual greatest player to ever play his sport. The possibilities were endless, but life in Brazil was hard, considering the kidnapping of his mother, by a man they call "Brazilian Bin Laden". None of that seemed to give him any respect for women, though, judging by what he why he was convicted. But will he ever serve his time?? Be told by Pele that you're going to be better than Pele, get your mother back from terrorist kidnappers, and do some absolutely disgusting things in a nightclub, causing you to fear extradition to Italy with Robinho!!

This week, we look at a man who had all the size & ability to be an all time NBA great, but seemed to lack in the desire department. He did show a desire for getting arrested, as he had many more trips to jail, than the all-star game. He punches people in bars, gets accused of worse, all white referring to himself in the third person & blowing $91 million! What a mess!!

This week, we check out a story that starts with a man, born without the usual physical gifts bestowed upon our subjects. He overcame huge odds to make it to the Olympics, as a disabled person. While this was all happening, an ego was building inside of him. Everything comes to a head one night, when he fires four shots through his bathroom door, leaving his beautiful, intelligent, famous girlfriend dead, on the other side. He has one story, but the police have a completely different one! Have your legs amputated at 11 months old, become an Olympic sprinter anyway, then shoot your girlfriend in the head, while claiming to mistake her for a burglar with Oscar "The Blade Runner" Pistorius!!

This week, we travel down the path of a sad, twisty story of a man who started with such promise. He came from a very abusive family, putting his toughness on display with a championship boxing career. The problem is, he also couldn't stop getting arrested. Find out why he said he father "made Hitler look like a choir boy", and just what the Gambino crime family had to do with all of this! What a wild journey!!

This week, we explore the life of a man who went from the tobacco fields of Cuba, to Yankee Stadium, and nearly pitching a no hitter. But after a lengthy, yet mediocre baseball career, he embarked on several enterprises, such as making cigars, and being involved in the drug trade. Known for dressing up in elaborate cowboy outfits, and always carrying his trademark pistols, he was quite the character... Even in prison. This story spans from Mickey Mantle to the Miami cocaine trade of the 1980's! It's Pedro "Pistola Pete" Ramos!!

This week, we look at a man who came to America, in search of a better life... and apparently to be a jerk. His NFL career was long, but so is his criminal record. Even with his attempts to try to pass himself off as an innocent foreigner, it's pretty obvious that he k new what he was doing. The fighting, the drinking, the GHB, more fighting, more drinking... more GHB, and throw in a little bribery, just for fun!

This week, we bring you one of the most anticipated episodes. One that you've all been asking for. He was considered extra crazy, in a time & business where crazy was the currency. In wrestling, his violence was unparalleled, including using staple guns, a Nintendo, or anything else that could be considered an implement of violence. Sometimes, this included stabbing his opponent in a less than planned way. Justifiable homicides, drugs, and overall mayhem. Not only does he admit to it all, but he's not even sorry!

This week, we travel back in time for a super swingin', cocaine snortin', late 70's/early 80's good time! He overcame some odds with his immense talent, but hit a major stumbling block with drugs. He partook in everything the New York lifestyle had to offer. He had all the women, partied at Studio 54 & Plato's Retreat, and snorted millions of dollars up his nose. Did he ever come out the other side, or did the whole thing end in tragedy? Either way, he has some of the most hilarious quotes in history. This is a fun one!!

This week, we take a look at a story that is unlike any we've ever told. A man pops out of nowhere, with a full bank account, and desire to build, and drive for the best racing team in Europe. He bought the hot cars, and lived the life... until it comes to light that he's not exactly who he says he is. As a matter of fact, he's not at all who he says he is. So, where did the money come from, and exactly who is this guy?? Be a "Gentleman Racer", fly everyone you know on the Concorde, and be completely full of crap with James Munroe!!
