It was a steroid or stimulant he would shoot into his dick that kept him erect longer so he could have sex more.

Lyman Bostock.  Emerging baseball star shot after a game as a passenger in a car.

 

Wow, forgot about him. Wasn't that in his first year with the Angels? I could be misremembering but I think he came up with the Twins and the parallel between him and Carew both going from the Twins to the Angels.

They covered that in the 30 for 30 about him.  Just wild stuff

I remember when Rocky kicked his ass after punching his brother in law

 

 

[Bills!Win!]

Bill Romanowski punched a teammate 

[boyst]

Chester Taylor. Never talked, quiet dude, was like a feather and very shy/introverted.

 

That random enough?

Grant Hill would have been a top 10 NBA Player of All Time if it wasn't for his injuries.  The guy was that good.

Tom Dempsey, who had half a foot, set the NFL record with a 63 yard field goal.

 

Imagine if he had a whole foot!

Someone that's not mentioned enough as far as having a great swing was John Olerud.

And Dock Ellis was on acid when he threw his no-hitter.

   He may have been baseball's ultimate flake.

It took a few years for hitters to figure out Hideo Nomo.  Then he was a below average pitcher going forward.

            As the only pitcher in baseball history to have thrown a no-hitter at Coor's field, it must have been before they figured him out.

That was in 1996 where he was okay.  After that, 7 straight seasons with an ERA above 4.00

Apparently, he was not a very good long term planner.

John Olerud always wore a batting helmet in the field.
