#435 - Criminal, Or Crazy Person? - Everson Griffen

This week, we look at a British Olympic diver, who took the country by storm, as a teenager. He married an Olympic gymnast, and set out to have the perfect life. They did traveling acrobatic shows, then settled on making a business out of making kids into Olympians, with their gym. This was going great, until many, many women accuse him of taking them into a basement called "Happyland", back when he "coached" them. Be a national hero by the time you're barely a teenager, marry a medal winning gymnast, and destroy both your legacy & the lives of a lot of people, all at the same time!!

This week, we find out all there is to know about a Portuguese soccer player, who hardly has any time for sports, because he spends most of his time getting arrested, and hanging out in jail. He beat the odds, coming from tough neighborhood, but he seems to take some of the neighborhood with him as he threatens, beats, robs, kidnaps, tortures, and allegedly rapes his to way to what may be a short career!! Make soccer your way to rise out of your circumstances, react extremely disproportionately to even the smallest slight, and be banned from an entire country with Ruben Semedo!!

This week, we look into a man who barely played in the NBA, but spent plenty of time upping his crime stats. From a very nasty allegation, from the first day of college, to a slew of charges, that become more fast & frequent. For one thing, he can't seem to go anywhere without a loaded weapon. He also feels that heroin is the way to go, for his post sports career & he tops the whole thing off with a cold blooded murder!! Be the best at your sport, in your entire state, dodge a rape allegation, that seems extremely true, and murder your uncle on the fron t lawn with Keith Appling!! Check us out, every Tuesday!

This week, we check out a rough, brawling enforcer, on the ice, who had a hard time keeping it together, off the ice. He was drafted, and signed to different teams because of one main skill; fighting. He was involved in a few of the NHL's all time best brawls, but as soon as he was done with hockey, the effects of all those blows to the head became apparent. After he sets his house on fire, he ends up living on the streets, struggling to control the headaches. It's wild, but sad tale! fight 20 year old hockey players, when you're 19, have hockey denying that brain damage exists, then have a sad demise, complete with street crime & forgetting where you are, half the time, with Stephen Peat!!

This week, we look at a man, who was born to an actual Nazi, during WWII. He starts his adult life out with a most horrific crime, that can't be explained. He teams with his father to form a wrestling tag team, and was also a pretty decent pro boxer. His real fame came from movies like "Die Hard", and as Vigo The Carpathian in "Ghostbusters 2"! He's such a bad guy, that he's unable to capitalize on the fame! Come from Nazi roots, make sure not to know if your sister is really your sister... or, your daughter, and be drug addicted pimp, who goes on to take sarcastic barbs from Bill Murray with Wilhelm Von Homburg!!
