Summary

This week, we talk about a Brazilian soccer star, who ends up accused of one of the worst, most despicable things that human being could possibly be capable of. He came from a dirt poor neighborhood, never even thinking he could be a star. But he ends up famous, reasonably wealthy, and always looking for new women, despite being a married man. He impregnates an aspiring model, who had a 4 year run in porn, but he denies the baby isn't his. This woman disappears. Last seen heading to Bruno's farm. A surprise witness comes forward, and blows the case wide open!!

 

Grow up in the favella, wanting to get out, use your soccer skills to make a much better life for you, and your family, and have the entire Brazilian police force hunt for you on kidnapping & possible murder charges with Bruno Fernandes De Souza - Part 1!!

 

Check us out, every Tuesday!

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