#336 - Violent, Nasty & Possibly Misunderstood - Ty Cobb

This week, we go back in time to check out one of the most celebrated & controversial athletes of all time. He held just about every hitting record possible, when he retired, but this story is all about the craziness that surrounded him. His father & mother had about the grossest relationship ever, which ended violently. Ty was a violent guy, alcoholic, and one of the fiercest competitors to ever play any sport. He also got arrested for some crazy things. But is everything we've ever heard about Ty actually true? Or, was a lot of it the imagination of an author, looking to sell books?? Either way, this is one wild story!


Be a product of the most disgusting "relationship" of all time, hit over .400 on multiple occasions, and fight a butcher over your wife's fish order with Ty Cobb!!


Check us out, every Tuesday!

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