#213 - With Both Hands Behind His Back... - The Improbableness of James Scott

This week, we settle in with one of the strangest stories we've ever looked at. A man who never had a chance in life, and quickly screws up any chance he does have, somehow makes himself a legend while serving 30 years in prison. He was a light heavyweight boxing contender, while being incarcerated for many things, including murder. Did he get out of prison, and fulfill his destiny? This story is a whole lot of crazy!!

Do eight years in jail for truancy, mess up your life, just when it starts to get on track, then become a legend from behind prison walls with James Scott!!

Check us out, every Tuesday!

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