He almost kills Paul Newman's brother, bites refs, and injures children. And that's just on the ice. He even tried to clean up his act for a little bit.

This week, we talk about a gritty hockey player, who was a feared enforcer, and the inspiration for a character in the movie "Slapshot". He was arrested more than a dozen times, before he was even an adult. He fought everyone possible. Other players, teammates, refs, cops, random people at bars, it didn't matter. mThis all caused him to be both hated, and beloved by hockey fans. His career doesn't suffer for the on ice fighting, but the rest of the fighting starts to hurt his cause!! Be an enforcer, even when you're a small child, throw a ref down to the ice, if you don't like his call, and start a riot, causing the need for police to escort the team out of the town with Bill "Goldie" Goldthorpe - Part 1!!

This week, we finish up this 3 parter, with Michael waiting for his trial, and his team still has his back. A plea deal saves his freedom, and creer, but he never loses the stigma of being a bad guy. Once body starts to betray him, the NFL wants nothing to do with him anymore. He tries a new league, but ultimately receeds in obscurity, before being arrested, yet again, on a very familar charge!! Have Jon Gruden have our back with everything, tell everyone that religion has made you not be violent, anymore, and find out that the NFL only wants you, if they can benefit from you with Michael Pittman - Part 3!!

This week, we talk more about an NFL player, who never seems to quite "get it". That includes both on the field, where he never lives up to expectations, but even more with his off the field problems. He's again charged with domestic abuse, as he's accused of not only putting his wife's life in danger, but also the babysitter, and his own 2 year old son. This leads to a huge sweep under the rug, from NFL, and being backed by his coach. Will the legal system be so forgiving?? Have one of the best games of your career in the Super Bowl, drive a Hummer at 2 women & a baby, and have Jon Gruden tell everyone what a great guy you are with Michael Pittman Sr. - Part 2!!

This week, we talk about a football player, who started his legel troubles while still in college. His huge biceps became legendary, but so did his constant arrests. He's also on a Super Bowl winning team, making everyone think that all has turned around. The problem is, there was always something under the surface. Either way, he always has an excuse. Even when a cop watched him abuse his girlfriend. Will he be able to keep it together, or will it all come crashing down? Be a part of an upstanding military family, work hard on your body & football skills, and kick in your girlfriend's sliding glass dorr, while in a rage with Michael Pittman Sr. - Part 1!!

This week, we look at a basketball player that seemed to have everything that someone could need to be an NBA star. The problem is, he didn't. But he did becaome a criminal, with constant arrests, and even a fake name, once his own name was equivilent to "liar". He stole from teammates, churches, and porn producers, with equal enthusiasm. He led police on a foot chase. Tried to start his own baskeball league, and fed basketball players ramen noodles. This leads to a lot of prison time, and a hilarious story!! Be the best high school basketball player in the entire state of Texas, steal your teammate's scholarship check, and change your name to that of a famous movie drug dealer with Glendon "Big Chief" Alexander!!

This week, we look at a muscular woman, who was on the Finnish version of "American Gladiators". She pumped herself full of steroids, leading to some very erratic behavior. She started bar fights with men, causing her to be banned from many establishments. But she also participated in murder, dismemberment, and even cannibalism. Her murder partner described "watching a man's face melt", while cooking it in a frying pan. She is even the main suspect in the disappearence of a 16 year old girl!! Wild stuff!! Pump yourself full of testosterone, shoot a tennis ball cannon at some poor office worker, and dismember your ex boyfriends & eat their faces with Virpi "Diamond" Butt!! Check us out, every Tuesday!

This week, we finish this tale with attitude becoming more important than talent. Kevin continues to be a problem for any team he joins. Despite always putting up good numbers, he bickers, argues, and worst of all, gets arrested, more than the average MLB team will put up with. He even gets in fights on the golf course. He almost loses an eye & is diagnosed with a difficult disease. But there is one story here, that if true, is one of the worst, most vile things an athlete on this show has ever done!! Have your attitude get in the way of your baseball ability, beat up a pedophile, before you even know he's a pedophile, and be accused of one of the sickest, and most heartless things that it's possible to do with Kevin Mitchell - Part 3!!
