This week, we tell the story of a man who never had much to call his own. Neglected, and abandoned at a young age, he grew up with no family. Luckily for him, he had basketball skills. Enough skills to make him only the 11th player to be drafted to the NBA, out of high school. Only problem is, he wasn't prepared for the league, or life. Next thing you know, he's covered in green war paint, and telling cops that he's "an Indian, fighting Columbus"!!

Be found wandering the streets at 5 years old, be drafted into the NBA, right out of high school, and don't take a break up with your high school sweetheart very well with Len"Fabulous Leon" Smith!!

Check us out, every Tuesday!

We will continue to bring you the biggest idiots in sports history!!

This week, we check out a former Dallas Cowboy great, who started out by being given up by his mother, at age 2. He grew up in rough conditions, only to come out the other side as a star. Then, it all fell apart. Cocaine, booze, bad driving, fraud, fighting with girlfriends, and wandering the neighborhood, barefoot, banging on doors, and screaming for his wife. Also, several funny nicknames. Crazy story!

Find out you're adopted, when the DMV tells you so, be on the Dallas Cowboys, during the old time glory days, and get extremely into religion with John "Johnny Nightlife" Niland!!

His teen years bring more trouble, but a prison boxing program brings him to fame. Problem is, that fame is fleeting, and he keeps getrting arrested. For fraud, and even murder!

Start boxing in a prison program, take yourself all the way to an Olympic gold medal, and disgrace yourself with contant legal troubles, including a murder charge with Henry Tillman!!
