This week, we check out a guy who seemed completely benign to outside observer. He accomplished his dream of making it to the NHL, even if his career wasn't the most distinguished. The problem was, there was something truly evil, beneath the surface. His crimes are shocking, and his punishment isn't quite satisfactory. He ends up being a guy who is excessively easy to dislike!!
Live every Canadian boy's dream, retire with dignity by learning to be a coach on your chosen team, and end up being thought of as a lewd, gross monster with Mike McBain!!
Check us out, every Tuesday. We will continue to bring you the biggest idiots in sports history!

Obviously, and the more famous, the more feedback is where we're certainly we're ensnaring more of the bar, whatever. But usually the last week people were fascinated by this. |
