#249 - A Different Kind Of Sandwich - The Sinkingness of Chris Herren

This week, we bring you a story of a legacy, unlimited potential, and massive screw ups. His family was an athletic legacy in his town, putting plenty of pressure on him to fulfill his destiny. And he did... well, until he did such a huge amount of drugs that no basketball team would touch him, and he ended up in a crashed car, with a heroin needle hanging out of his arm. A long way from how it was supposed to be. Can he turn it all around, and even make a difference to others, or fade into the shadows of society?

Attempt to fulfill the legacy of your family, play for your home town NBA team, and become the poster child for what not to do with Chris Herren!!

Check us out, every Tuesday!

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