Summary

This week, we go back in time to look at man man who grew up in an orphanage, during The Great Depression! He turned to street gangs, boxing & baseball, but WWII came calling before he could become a pro at anything. While in the Army, he was boxing champion, and convicted rapist, sentenced to life in military prison, but he gets another shot at the outside world, because he happens to be the star of the prison baseball team. A major league career, brings him some World Series glory, a cool nickname, and more sexually deviant charges. Even retirement, and old age doesn't stop more very awful charges from coming his way!!

Grow up in an orphanage, even though your father is still alive, get thrown in prison, rather than fighting Hitler, and always slip out of truly disgusting accusations with "Jungle" Jim Rivera!!

Check us out, every Tuesday!

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