Bernie Kosar

If Bernie Kosar were an actor, he would be Billy Zane. Almost everyone knows who he is and the team he became a star with (similar to Billy Zane’s roles in “Titanic” and “The Phantom”), but Bernie Kosar is equally as mediocre a quarterback as Zane is an actor. They both had some bright spots [...]

Doug Christie

Say what you want about Doug Christie the basketball player, but he is a DUDE that would NEVER cheat on his wife.  He won’t ever cheat on his wife because she is always there.  More on that later… Doug Christie the basketball player was pretty decent in his prime.  He has a career scoring average [...]

Craig Counsell

Craig Counsell is perhaps best known for his unorthodox batting stance. I remember first seeing this guy walk up to the plate and embarrassing himself with his awkward and goofy stance. I thought to myself, “wow, this guy must be pretty mediocre.” And its true. There really isn’t a whole lot that separates Craig Counsell [...]

Olden Polynice

Olden Polynice is a pretty terrific NBA footnote.  More than that, he is a man.  Do you know anyone, or have your heard of anyone, who has ever been arrested TWICE for impersonating a police officer?  Yeah, didn’t think so.  Olden Polynice has got that on me, you and everyone else in the country.  The [...]

Kerry Collins

If there is anything Kerry Collins can do better than throw a football its his ability to throw back a bottle of Jim Beam the night before a big game. Kerry Collins has been called many things in his life; namely, a drunk, a loser and a quitter. He may very well be all of [...]

Brad Miller

If you don’t already know, Brad Miller is a big dog. He plays center like a power forward and drains the tre-ball like a shooting guard. Brad Miller is arguably one of the most dynamic, versatile and durable players in the NBA, and if he keeps it up, he very well may find himself enshrined [...]

It seems as though every year at least one emerging college quarterback makes it to the NFL and then completely and irrevocably self-destructs. Its a sad sight when you see these guys on draft day on top of the world and then a few seasons later they can’t even get a job as a backup. [...]

Delino DeShields

Delino DeShields is one of the great baseball names of the last century.  He is probably the only person on the planet with that name.  Does anyone out there know any one named Delino DeShields?  Yeah, I didn’t think so.  Aside from having a pretty cool name, Delino DeShields is one of the great mediocre [...]

Pro sports has a long standing tradition of turning its former players into its future managers and coaches.  It started back in the day with the role of the player/manager.  Some athletes across all sports have excelled in this role, including the great Bill Russell of the Boston Celtics.  However, greats like Ty Cobb have [...]
