Not Consensual - Jim Krakouer
Crime in Sports
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" with a 14 year old girl, to having enough meth to keep all of Australia hyper, he couldn't have gone more wrong! Be on a football team with your brother, claim your sexual relationship with a 14...

Don't Care About No Drugs - Daniel Straus
Crime in Sports
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 charges, to terrible driving, and a horrific alleged attack on his ex-girlfriend, he's a bit of a mess!! Fight your way out of Steak & Shake, be thrown from a moving motorcycle &...

The Staircase Romantic - Wayne "Big Money" Simmons - Part 2
Crime in Sports
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 young lady, on her graduation night. It all ends with a giant bang, as Wayne's 3 AM problems eventually get the best of him!! Entertain your teammates, while annoying your coaches, earn a Super...

Will he get it together, ort go further downhill? Have a want to make your mother stop crying, have no idea who any of your teammates are, and...

Always The Victim - Matt Barnes
Crime in Sports
This week, we talk about a journeyman NBA player, who managed to stay in the league for over a decade, but never made the impact he wanted. While bouncing around the league, he got in beefs with several players, coaches, another player's mother, and even a high school journalist. But he also had iussues with his own reality star wife, and got publicly dissed by Rhianna. Currently, he has actually turned this all into a very successful podcast venture!! Think that you're much better than you actually are, fight an opposing team's coach for being with your ex-wife, and always post every...

The Adventures Of Thunderbutt - Nathan Baggaley
Crime in Sports
This week, we find out about an Australian olympian, in a sport that we've never covered, canoeing! He had all the promise in the world, but he also had a need to seemingly try to build a giant drug empire. He is busted many times, including one attempted shipment of cocaine, that had the Australian Navy, giving chase, while bricks of cocaine were hurled overboard. This resulted in massive amounts of cocaine, washing up all up and down the Aussie coastline!! Get out of the family oyster farming business, buy yourself a boat, under the guise of whale watching, and fling bricks of coke...

Understanding OJ - Titus Young
Crime in Sports
This week, we find out about an NFL player, who depended on his speed, but didn't count on being out of the league, just as fast. He started acting strangely. He yelled at coaches & sucker punched a team mate. From there, he quickly goes down hill, off the field, with more strange behavior, which grows increasingly more violent, with arrest, after arrest. Was it mental illness, or head trauma? Tell everyone that you're a better wide out than Calvin Johnson, climb a fence to try to get your impounded car back, and scare everyone around you, with increasingly erratic, and violent...
