Crime in Sports

This week, we talk about a basketball player, who seemed to have it all, with his future as bright as one could be. Problem was, laziness, a very entitled attitude, and a lack of scoring actual points led to him being in every coach's dog house. On top of that, he seems to have a police magnet in his body, and he will not stop saying stupid, and arrogant. things. He may be the perfect CIS subject!...

This week, we talk about a long time MLB player, with a gift for saying quotable things, and a love of the high life. He started out in humble beginnings, while saying his mother was "more of a sister", and waiting for Christmas presents that would never arrive. He had an impressive baseball career, only to have it prematurely derailed, mainly due to his attitude. After baseball, he drifted into t...

This week, we finish up this tale of cult madness, with Yahweh Ben Yahweh having his day in court, and not quite understanding that he wasn't in charge there. They blame everything on Robert, and say that this "religion" isn't about violence. Meanwhile, Robert ends up in the federal witness relocation program, under a new name, but up to his old tricks. He gets busted for something very minor, but...

This week, we continue this murderous story, with Robert being a witness at the trial of 15 murders. He's quite the character on the stand, wearing his hair in a unique way, and brazenl;y showing no remorse for his murders. Yahweh himself also takes the stand to deny even having "followers", and claiming everyone is taking "kill white devils" the completly wrong way, and he actually only wants lov...

This week, we continue this tale, with Yahweh being arrested, and held for a major federal trial. The cult & its leader are accused of at least 14 murders, a massive amount of financial misdoings, and are even being accused of systematic child abuse. The star witness for all of this is Robert Rozier, who is now in federal witness protection, under a new name. Will Yahweh's thinly veiled threats to...

This week, we continue this craziness, with Robert finally getting his day in court, on 4 murder charges. But the cult decides that he's trying to extort them, for a new lawyer, so he is excommunicated. This leaves Robert free to begin to tell of the inner workings of the group, and their penchant for retribution, and violence. Meanwhile, the leader of the cult is being more accepted into polite s...

This week, we continue this wild story, with the cult growing in power. They start to retaliate against anyone who isn't an enthusiastic member. This includes fire bombs in residential areas, accusations of child abuse, and a showdown with an entire apartment complex, that ends with 2 murders. Robert is accused of 3 murders, and awaiting trial, while the cult is held under a microscope. Mainly for...

This week, we start the epic story of a man, who made it all the way to the NFl, but barely played, due to his off the field craziness. He ran from 32 arrest warrants in Canada, while playing for the CFL, and was also wanted in California. So, he ends up in Miami, Florida. There here joins a crazy cult, that lives communally in an old wharehouse, and under a leader that has insane ideas, and perfo...

This week, we finish up this crazy tale of a basketball player, that seemed to be working against his own interests. He is signed with a new team, but is deemed "too fat to play", and suspended. His attitude continues to be a problem, until the NBA has finally had enough. He ends up kicking around some other leagues, until finally actually turning his life around, and spending his time working wit...

This week, we continue the story of a baskeball player, who had the world in his hands, only for him to throw up an airball. In this part, he starts a public war with his coaches, because he doesn't feel like he's being treated the same as Michael Jordan. He then goes back to drug rehab, gets out, and everything seems fine. He's a model citizen. Until he goes back into rehab, for his gigantic coca...

This week, we talk about a basketball player, who was supposed to be one of the stars of the NBA. An allegation that he broke into a young woman's dorm room, and tried to sexually attack her doesn't even scare teams away. But it turns out that he was guilty, and it was only the start of his downhill slide. Michael Jordan was drafted to play his position, causing more depression, and more freebasin...

This week, we continue the story of the Brazilian goalkeeper, accused of murdering his girlfriend, and feeding her to dogs, not to mention kidnapping his illegitimate son. Bruno must finally face a trial, but despite the outcome, he's back on the soccer field, in a scarily fast amount of time. Will the fans stand for their team, hiring a murderer? Or, will everyone be surpriused at how much suppor...

This week, we talk about a Brazilian soccer star, who ends up accused of one of the worst, most despicable things that human being could possibly be capable of. He came from a dirt poor neighborhood, never even thinking he could be a star. But he ends up famous, reasonably wealthy, and always looking for new women, despite being a married man. He impregnates an aspiring model, who had a 4 year run...

This week, we discuss a man who followed in his father's footsteps into the world of hockey, becoming a prospect, who seemed to be the future of whatever lucky team ended up with him. But there were problems, not only with his on ice production, but with his immaturity. There was a domestic incident that he was quite embarrassed about, there was his alleged substance use, which sent rumors flying...

This week, we discuss an Aussie golfer, who had a very strange path to both golf, and crime. He grew up as a natural talent, but lacked some of the work ethic needed to become a star as a pro. So, he joined a criminally prominent biker gang, put the golf clubs aside. This continues until a very violent incident lands him in a terribly kept prison. Somehow, he turns it all around, and tries to cont...

This week, we talk about a boxer, who seemed to have unlimited potential. He was supposed to be the savior of his weight class & he wanted to bring his people together. Unfortunately for him, he did bring his people together, but they came together with hatred for him, after he is convicted of one of the most gutless, and horrific murders that a person could imagine. The sheer brutality of it, and...

This week, we finish up with Adrian, as he is starting to get a little bit too old to be an effective running back, but he's just the right age to go into massive amounts of debt, and get arrested, about once a year. He drives poorly while drinking, causes a delay on an LA to Houston flight, after he has to be removed from the plane, and is charged with domestic violence. He also still claims to h...

This week, we check back in with Adrian, as he recovers from losing a son. He also quickly gets in trouble for a "whooping" that he put on his 4 year old son. He tries to say that beatings are what made him the man he became, but this beating seems to go beyond the norms, even for Texas, even though plenty of people say that he did nothing wrong. Pictures of the injuries horrify both a judge, and...

This week, we celebrate episode 500!! We look at one of the greatest players to ever play his position, in NFL history. He has countless accolades, to attest to his football prowess. Only problem is, he also had quite the prowess for ending up in handcuffs. We start with his difficult, and sometimes tragic childhood, only to see him overcome these things. He also seems to believe that he's possibl...

This week, we finish up this wild story with Steve, getting back into the NHL, only to barely play, and end up unemployed. He fills in this employment gap by going down to Bolivia, and trying to smuggle cocaine into Canada, with a wild & fun excuse. He does his prison time, only to get back into drugs, and end up in more trouble, including running an "escort service" that definitely wasn't legal....

This week, we look at a hockey player, who was a little too violent & short tempered, even for hockey. He never had a goal, other than playing hockey, and he achieved that by being drafted in the 1st round. But the only potential he ever lived up to was his potential for violence. He attacked opposing players, fans, coaches, trianers, timekeepers, and even the police! This temper leads to obvious...

This week, we look at an absolutely horrible human being, who competed in a sport that we've never talked about! Rock climbing! He was an idol of other climbers, as he made his own routes up mountains, and published several books about climbing. But under the surface, there was a violent sexual predator. He beat women, then threatened them if they dared report it. He sexually attacked women, and s...

This week, we look at an Autralian football player, who came from hard times, and only made things worse for himself. He was an aggressive player, at a time when it was perfectly acceptable to hurl racial slurs upon a field of play. But none of that holds an answer to why he did the things he did. From a youthful conviction, for a reprehensible crime, to having an ongoing sexual "relationship" wit...

This week, we look at an MMA fighter, who had it rough & practically raised himself. He was a champion wrestler in high school, but didn't start his MMA career, until after a stint in prison. He also had a stint at Steak & Shake, making getting punched in the face sound like a good option. His career was decent, but he could never get out from under his legal problems. From robbery, to drug charge...

This week, we finish off this story with Wayne, starting his NFL career, but it doesn't work out quite like he wanted. He's shuffled around the league, even picking up a Super Bowl ring, but always seems to do something to get him on the wrong side of his team, and the law. Most of his legal problems happen at 3 AM. This includes bad driving, a lot of punching, and a horrible accusation, from a yo...
