Summary

This week, we dip back into the crazy waters of a man that we covered in our first year of the show. Problem is, he's lived more than an episode of his insane existence since that time, so we've had to circle back, and pick up the pieces. What more has he done? Wrote a crazy book, been arrested a LOT, accused Charlie Sheen of murder, and ruined an otherwise quaint New Jersey neighborhood, to name just a few. He's a menace, and we are all the beneficiaries, because we get to explore this wild tale!!


Be a World Series hero, become a financial genius, then claim bankruptcy & scam everyone you can, and expose yourself to potential employees with Lenny Dykstra!!


Check us out, every Tuesday!


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

The most notes I've ever had. This is all week. This took me this is a lot. When he dikes to everybody. Yes, part two. It's not really a part two because we're going to encompass the

3:36.0

the first part also our first episode. We were trying in the beginning. We didn't know if anybody cared. So we were trying to keep him to like an hour. We figured we know how long we can hold these people's attention for and they might want to turn it off. We didn't know. This was like three years ago. Over three years ago, this episode happened. Wow. And since then seems like the day after we put out the episode. He has gone on an insane ride. Yeah. Of basically every week. He's doing something else insane and getting arrested and doing this and doing nutty shit. His book came out with a

bunch of crazy shit that he said. So there's so much to talk about. We're going to breeze through the baseball stuff pretty quickly because we did it on the first episode. And honestly, would you rather hear about him smoking crack and having crazy prostitute parties with Charlie Sheen or about his 1987 slugging percentage. I don't know which one he'd rather hear about. But I'm going to assume.

4:30.7

Charlie Sheen shits on the little kind of interesting. That's what I'm saying. So we're going to kind of kind of go go more toward the salacious on this one because you can because there's so I had to pick and choose like well, you know, the episode's going to be five hours long.
