Fighting Columbus - Leon "Fabulous Leon" Smith

This week, we tell the story of a man who never had much to call his own. Neglected, and abandoned at a young age, he grew up with no family. Luckily for him, he had basketball skills. Enough skills to make him only the 11th player to be drafted to the NBA, out of high school. Only problem is, he wasn't prepared for the league, or life. Next thing you know, he's covered in green war paint, and telling cops that he's "an Indian, fighting Columbus"!!

Be found wandering the streets at 5 years old, be drafted into the NBA, right out of high school, and don't take a break up with your high school sweetheart very well with Len"Fabulous Leon" Smith!!

Check us out, every Tuesday!

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