Crime in Sports

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! Box your way off the street & into the ring with Mike Tyson, remain on the streets as a no nonsense hitman, taking out the drug competition, and be turned in by one of the most notorious criminals in street history with Reggie Gross!!

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! Put KFC's blend of original herbs & spices to shame, fist fight your way to the NBA, and when confronted by clear & obvious evidence, always deny it anyway with Nate "Grave" Driggers!!

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? Pull of a triple axel while smoking a Marlboro, get mixed up with the wrong crowd, and find out that jail is nothing like the Olympics with Nicole Bobek!! Check us out, every Tuesday!

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.

This week, we settle in with one of the strangest stories we've ever looked at. A man who never had a chance in life, and quickly screws up any chance he does have, somehow makes himself a legend while serving 30 years in prison. He was a light heavyweight boxing contender, while being incarcerated for many things, including murder. Did he get out of prison, and fulfill his destiny? This story is a whole lot of crazy!!

This week, we jump over the net to look at a Belgian tennis player who has maybe the craziest origin story we've ever told. He went from these humble beginnings to becoming an arrogant, snobby, jerk, who treated everyone, including his parents, like they were beneath him. This attitude developed into a nasty little heroin habit that destroyed his life & career, while landing him in jail, multiple times. Does he ever stop his stupidity? Find out!

This week, we take a long look at a man who was no stranger to crime from an early age. From theft, to selling crack to an undercover officer, to punching women & chasing a man through the streets, holding a large stick... and that's all before he was even of legal age. With NFL success didn't come the end of his arrests, as he kept up a pretty solid record, throughout the years. This includes one of the sillier arrests in CIS history! It's Corey Dillon!!

This week, we check in with a man who we have done two episodes on, but now we check in with the man himself, Lenny Dykstra!! We sit have a chat with Lenny about what he's been up to, since his last arrest, what he thinks about baseball in the age of Covid-19, and exactly what the hell he was thinking when he kept getting arrested! Lenny is honest, frank, and just an all around good time. Throughout the episode are voicemails to wish Lenny well, left by some ex-teammates, media personalities, and people you just wouldn't expect!! This is an all around good time!!

This week, we check out a man who played a sport we know nothing about, rugby. That said, we skip most of the sports, and dive directly into crime. He tried to make a little extra money, doing some dirty things, and got caught. In Thailand. With a LOT of heroin. This leads to a long stint in a nightmarish Thai prison, which causes him even bigger troubles. Listen to it all unravel!

This week, we look at a very successful person, who never seemed like they'd turn out to be so successful. He was a six time NBA champion, who played next to the great of all time. He also spent money in dumb ways, drove a little tipsy, was a little careless with guns, and the police know the address where he and his reality show star wife lived. Not to mention, more lawsuits than you could shake a stick at, including one that names a 5 year old girl as a target. What a mess!

This week, we go back in time to look at man who had it rough. He had over 100 boxing matches, back before we even knew what CTE was, the 1920's/1930's. This all resulted in bizarre behavior, culminating with a jealous outburst at both his mistress... and her mother. He admits to the crime, but will his diminished capacities keep him from hanging in London's gallows? This is a wild & crazy ride through history!!

TW/CW.. This week, we look into a man who makes it REALLY hard to like him. His first, second, and third responses are all the same, violence. He attacks people in public, in bars, and worst of all, in their own homes. All the signs were there, but the world wasn't sure just how awful of a human being he is, until he commits an act so heinous, that he may never get out of prison!

This week, we jump into the deep end of a murky pool. A man who was raised to be a champion, from the time he was in diapers. He was on a clear path to a gold medal when tragedy struck, and he was severely injured in a car accident. His remarkable comeback, all the way to the Olympics was nothing short of amazing, but he quickly threw it all away. In the end, people are killed, and so is a legend!

This week, we take a look at a guy whoo seems to have been getting arrested since birth. From high school, and beyond, he developed a pattern of having no regard for rules, the law, or other human beings, then having people get him out of trouble. He continues this pattern, until he meets his future wife, soccer star, Hope Solo. She seems to fit right into his lifestyle, as they end up entangled with police, as a couple, on more than one occasion, in addition to having her own problems with the law!

This week, we bodyslam our way through the story of a man who defines the term "wasted potential". No one in wrestling history has been given more chances to be employed, or screwed those chances up quite so badly. He did plenty of drugs, fought cops in bar parking lots, and that's only the beginning. Tales of his debauchery are legendary. Some are hilarious, and some are downright criminal. He is a unique kind of disaster! Have sex with your cousin, snort your way out of every job you get, and never learn from your mistakes with Marty Jannetty!! Check us out, every Tuesday!

This week, we check out a nearly forgotten baseball player, who was once the catalyst behind a team that went to the World Series, but just a few short years later, he was out of the sport, all together. Why? Cocaine, and plenty of it. Also, he had quite the attitude, causing fights with everyone from friends, to teammates, to his team's manager. His post-baseball life was sad one, complete with a penthouse apartment, specifically for shooting heroin. This is a wild tale!

This week, we talk about a man who somehow went from dropping out of high school, to the NBA in a matter of a few years. He sold crack, and ran the streets but always kept his basketball dreams alive, and eventually it paid off, at least in money. But he has been full of problems like being belligerent to cops, drinking to excess, getting robbed, committing a burglary, and a whole lot in between. He leaves you with only one question... WHY??

This week, we take an extra long look into one of the strangest stories that we've had in all 200 episodes. A boxer, a large, redheaded man called "Elvis", drugs, a threatened quadriplegic, guns, murder... This story has it all. When a boxer feels he is wronged by his slimy manager/promoter, he takes matters into his own hands. Was it justified, or just a brain damaged delusion? Find out!

This week, we follow the trail of a man who has been living on the edge for 40 years. A star NFL player, from a tiny school, that ends up setting the single season sack record. He also started a Studio 54 brawl, went out with movie stars & models, had a crazy mustache, and got arrested. A lot. Court orders mean nothing, and people who don't want to be slapped around, mean even less. Can he turn it around to something positive, or will his story end sadly??

This week, we look at a man who was obsessed with looking good. He even tried to make a career of bodybuilding, but ended up selling steroids, getting involved in love triangles, and plotting murders. Just when police are closing in on him, he disappears. Seemingly gone for good, but actually living in a another country, and under an assumed name. Will he just quietly hide out, or brashly make his presence known, and participate in more horrific murder??

This week, we check out a fighter, with fierce reputation, in the ring, and a less than stellar reputation, outside of it. He came from a less than ideal background to make it to the top level of MMA, but little things, like pesky arrests kept getting in the way. From his history, let's just say that he seems to have a slight problem with women, and leave it at that. Bruised girlfriends, and flying yogas mats are his specialty. But will that lose him his job, or will it be pushed aside? Make up your own nickname, knock people out in less than a minute, and never stand for unauthorized yoga, in your area with Anthony "Rumble"Johnson!! Check us out, every Tuesday!

This week, we look into a man who always used violence as a first resort. He was a football mainstay due almost entirely to his force of will, and the sheer terror that he inflicted on his opponents. On the streets, he seemed to approach life the same way, and when you get up in the sky, he's even more aggressive. Luckily for him, he turned this image into a pretty healthy movie career, becoming a familiar face, all over the world. It's Vinnie Jones!! Also... THE SCUMMIE AWARDS!!

This week, we celebrate our 4th anniversary, and head down the road with a man who certainly shouldn't be driving. He fought his way from community college, to a big time program, to being an NBA All-Star, seemingly using nothing but will, and determination. Unfortunately, he didn't seem to have the determination to not get arrested. His actions escalated, until a seemingly inevitable tragedy takes place. Will he ever learn his lesson? Fight your way to the NBA all-star game, get very stoned before every game, and always drink as much as possible before you drive with Mookie Blaylock!! Check us out, every Tuesday!

This week, we find out about a man who lived his childhood dream, making it to the major leagues, and even on to his lifelong favorite team. His baseball career fizzled out, but after a couple bumps in the road, he pulls his life together, and even does good for the community. That is, until shocking, and horrifying charges are leveled against him, and nobody thinks he's such a great guy anymore! This one is insane!!

This week, we try not to blink because we would miss this shooting hockey star, and his unraveling life. A Canadian kid, achieving his goal by making it all the way to the NHL, and serving as the resident goon, beating up anyone in his path. The problem is when you have a propensity for violence, and you mix it with a cocaine addiction, and an enormous amount of steroids, you get a whole lot of insane things happening, in a very short amount of time! Skate around with the Stanley Cup, never meet a person that you don't want to punch, and make sure to take your steroids with John Kordic!! Check us out, every Tuesday!

This week, we check out the life of one of the richest, most successful athletes in the world. Unfortunately for world, and especially for the women in his life, he is an absolute jerk, in every sense of the word. From jealous rages, to controlling people with his money, and lashing out at home owner's association security guards, bouncers, jail guards, or anybody who happens to be around, this guy never misses an opportunity to disappoint!!

This week, we explore the life, and considerable screw ups of a man who was a national champion in college, and played in three Super Bowls, only to be overshadowed by a slew of almost innumerable run ins with police. He is apparently a terrible driver, and he makes it even worse by never having a license. What he does have, is a lot of cocaine, and several women with orders of protection against him for his insane behavior! Play in multiple Super Bowls, but never win one, always test positive for cocaine, and always know that a restraining order is just a piece of paper with Clarence Kay!! Check us out, every Tuesday!

This week, we check out what it's like to follow your legendary father's footsteps into the profession that made him famous. We find out that it has advantages, and disadvantages, but it doesn't explain the road that he went down. He just couldn't understand that taking several different kinds of drugs, on a regular basis, wasn't a good life plan. The whole thing comes to an absolutely crazy conclusion, filled with many more questions than answers!!

This week, we check out a legend of the New York City playground basketball scene, who made it all the way to the pros, before his interesting personality, and flair for the dramatic got him banished back to the playground, and eventually to a much worse place than that. He seemingly cleaned up his act after recovering from a gunshot wound, and some time in prison, by helping kids, and becoming a role model... until the police came breaking down the door, accusing him of being a drug kingpin!

This week, we circle back, and take a fresh look at a man who we covered in our 10th episode, with an all new episode! He was a beloved, and famous icon of skateboarding, in the 1980's, until things started to go downhill, both personally & professionally. His dark path continued until it culminated in one of the most heinous, horrid things that we've ever talked about. He's a truly awful person, and we have so much information that we didn't have time for, way back in 2016!!

This week, we try to get into the head of a man with a tough upbringing, that put his anger into fighting, inside the ring, instead of in the street. He eventually worked his way up to UFC, but injuries, lack of conditioning, and a serious drug habit kept him from becoming a champion. As his life unravels, and he faces charges in court, and the end of his fighting career, he does something so drastic, that there's no coming back from it! Grow up angry, develop a nasty drug habit, and do the unthinkable with Justin "The Executioner" Levens!! Check us out, every Tuesday!

This week, we duck flying objects as we look at a man who exhibited behavior that can be described best as "aggressive", and at worst as "insane". He was an eagle scout, and an honor student, but he unleashed a real fury when he played... and the rest of the time, too. No one was safe, teammates, thermostats, clubhouses, girlfriends, strangers, fans, trick or treaters, Hannah Storm, it really didn't matter. This guy was a general menace, and it's simply hilarious!

This week, we take a gander at a man who came from a troubled background, and was never supposed to about to anything. He shocked everyone by becoming the heavyweight champ. He also attacked festive hotel lobbies, robbed homes, fought cops, smoked a lot of crack, and had one of the strangest moments in the history of sports during a world title fight! It's Oliver McCall!! Shock the world by becoming champion, have your robbers come back to ask follow up questions, and never hold your emotions back with Oliver "The Atomic Bull" McCall!!

This week, we check out a man who may be the definition of "shooting star", as he rose from obscurity to reach his NFL dreams. Once he got there, things didn't go so well, as he fell in with the wrong crowd, seemingly never able to get out of his own way, but always in the path of the police. He was falsely accused of a horrible crime, by a teenaged prostitute, turned insane murderer, and that is considered heart warming compared to the rest of this tale. It's Chris Henry!!

This week, we fire up the engines to bring you one of the wildest, craziest people in the history of the show. He was a dare devil & race car driver from the days before they even wore helmets. He was an Indianapolis 500 winner, cementing his place his racing history. This all seemed to go to his head, as after that he seemed to think it was okay attack police officers (multiple times), shoot at service men, home from WWII, attack women (multiple times), sometimes with a knife, among other insanities!

This week, we skate directly into the eye of a storm of bad circumstances, luck, and behavior, with a man who was at the top of his game, winning championships, and making big money. This all changed with both a head injury, and a newly found love of cocaine. This culminates in a sleazy hotel, gangster, prostitute, bribed cab driver, crack rock kind of evening that leaves his problems exposed to the public. It only gets worse from there, with the FBI getting interested in his dealings. It's a mess!! Skate from the time you can walk, deny ever using crack, even when found with crack, and always lie to the federal government after you promised to be an informant with Kevin Stevens!!

This week, we look into a man who came along at just the right time to get rewarded greatly for his considerable talents. Unfortunately, that may have made him think that he was entitled to do whatever he wanted to do. This includes fighting with female gas station attendants, driving a Bentley while drunk, and barging into his ex's house at 3am with a frightening request. It's a story of someone who never wanted to follow his father's footsteps, but does he? This a crazy story, complete with some insane revelations about how the Jackson family chose their band members!
