Well, it still looks nice though. Feels nice. It looks nice. It looks nice. It does. It looks like I think I would have went with the part on the left, but that's up to you. That's a personal choice. I don't know. Whatever. So anyway, the scummy awards. If you are new to the show is a yearly award ceremony that we put on to honor the biggest scumbags in sports from the last year. Now a couple of rules. Number one, only people from the calendar year 2024 are eligible.

So China. These are all rule breakers. We're gonna make them face the rules. We're gonna pen them right in, that's right. They can break all the rules they want out there, but in here, we're in charge of this shit. And we will not have any other fucking scumbaggery. It's our kingdom.

Not happening here. So only 2024, so China not eligible. Evil Can Evil not eligible for a reward. So just so we know that ahead of time, Darrell Porter not eligible, just 2024 calendar year. Really rooting for her. So Brian McGee through Kebani Savage, that's where this goes.

I think China can turn it around now. Oh yeah, I think I'm rooting for her. She's gonna win the Ron LaFleur Award, I think. So anyway, the Scummy Awards as voted by our distinguished panel consisting of myself and my three dogs Frankie, Benny and Oscar. Mike Dogo, Argentino, my Connie Corso and my German short-haired pointer. And this year we introduce a new judge. This award.

That's the thing. We had a lot of problems. Yeah. I had to weigh my vote as two because otherwise it didn't work. Now this year we have added a tiebreaker vote to the crew with an eight month old kitten named Brandy, a little tortoise shell.

Now we decide everything at 3 AM. Now Brandy's fickle. She's tough. And her sensibilities are slightly different from the group. She's another species and she's young too, which is good to have a young voice on the panel as well. So you know, anything can happen really at this point in time, you never know.

So let's start out with an award that's just a gimme. We have a couple of gimme awards at the beginning that are like honoraries, you know, like a lifetime achievement award type of thing, except it's just one is the I'll just agree. It's a unanimous It's a yeah, it's a handout. It's like the MTV Awards. They'd give out the Michael Jackson Award for you know Most knuckles inside of a ten-year-old I think is it right? That's for parameters got awards a lot for people who are still alive Is it right that's for parameters for that award still alive for people who are still alive So I the first award of the evening here is the but not nearly as bad as award Okay, this is awarded to the he this isn't actually even awarded to an athlete

This is awarded to a non-athlete Who happens to share the strangest name with a criminal athlete that we've covered and this year the winner is from the greater pama Pamela D Malorca metropolitan area. Nor fuck that is the Norbert group is his name. This is all night. That's his name. Just like Wilhelm von Hamburg's his real name is Norbert Group A with a fucking you fucking U and an E at the end. This man is the chief executive officer at Can Barbera FC, or SC. I don't know, soccer club? I don't know what the fuck that is. They call it football over there. What are we talking about?

Can Barbera? That's Australia, right? No. Can Barbera. Oh. Two separate words. Don't look at me. And Mallorca is in like Mediterranean area. Oh, okay. So I don't know where the fuck this guy's from.

European some bitch. Norbert, we are not going to be able to ascend you this award since we can't find you on this earth. So you are going to have to come to us. I'm probably saying your name wrong. No, Norbert's right. Group A, who knows? So if you want to come pick up the award, get ahold of us and we will definitely ship it out to you or we'll have an in-person ceremony where we hand it over to you.

I mean, yeah, seriously, another man exists with this name, you win the award. This is crazy. And then the other award that we like to give out just at the beginning here, it's a inspirational award, really. It's an award that lets us know that no matter how someone, how terrible someone is in your life, you can- Redeemable. No, no, no, not redeemable.

No. They're not redeemable. It's that you can enable them to be even worse. That's what this is. This is- You can encourage the fuckery to a level that you don't even realize you can do. And then even when they surpass even your moral fucking threshold- Oh, don't stop encouraging. You still go on and this is the Golden Gilretha award. Yeah. Given out for the mother of- And this is the golden Gilretha award given out for the mother of The honorary name by the way is Carlton Dotson's mother who was a Baylor player who killed a man and may have beheaded

teammate May have beheaded him. We don't know if it's animals or not still and Buried him in the desert there and his mother was like he's a good boy So yeah, we we named one after her and the winner this year. Let's see who we got here Oh shit, it's Barbara Savage everybody cabani's mom We had some we had some wives that you know, we're Definitely enabling we had mothers even but no one took it to this level Cabani Savage if you don't remember we did him in of 2024. Kabani Savage was one of the worst people possible on this earth.

Oh, is that the baby killer? He firebombed a house and burned children to death because not because the snitch was in the house, but those were relatives of a snitch, who he thought was a snitch. And they deserved to die. And that was only one of the things he did. And his mom here,

she I'll read a little bit from from a highlight of here of why she won this award. And this is from a newspaper article. The mother of reputed North Philadelphia drug king Pinkebani Savage lashed out yesterday at federal authorities and government witnesses who she claims have wrongly painted her son as a ruthless underworld crime boss. Now remember, we have countless hours of recordings of him ordering murders and laughing about dead children. Countless hours. This is quote, it's unbelievable. They're saying all this negative stuff.

My son is a loving, giving person, always has been. He gives flames. Yeah, what do you need, a little fuel? He's got it in a bottle for you and he'll even deliver it to your house My son is a loving, giving person. Always has been. He gives flames. Yeah. What do you need? A little fuel? He's got it in a bottle for you and he'll even deliver it to your house and throw it through your window for you.

It's excellent. No way. Put the flames on your own child's back. It's great. He'll give you the flames off his own son's back. Do you understand that? She said no way in the world is he involved in any of this. He would never hurt anyone like that

The people who did the people who know him know this isn't true. It's totally unbelievable That will get you the golden gilritha. Oh, yeah, this particular award is of a woman It's a golden, you know like a golden bust of a woman and not her tits I mean her head like a Hall of Fame bus and this bus just has their eyes closed. That's how it works like Lady Justice like big curly hair yep, and That's it and the scales are always tipped in her son's favor. That's how it works there So there you go congratulations Barbara's nice. Congratulations Barbara. Good job for being completely clueless.

For being completely clueless to the needs of the world and for not caring that you raised a monster who burned children alive. You utter piece of shit. Well done disregarding all safety of the public. Good job. Good job. Supporting a lunatic to the end. Excellent, now let's get on with some competitive awards.

These are, we give out our lifetimes, I think we have one more that we just give out later on, but this one here, this is one of my favorite awards. This is the award for the biggest liar who existed in the last year, known as the annual Skip bailus award obviously. The skip bailus award for biggest liar coming up everybody here. OK, it continues. How does he do it?

He's a bit that's his that's his entire currency is stick. I'll say shit that you know isn't true. So you click on it and then get mad at me. And then tomorrow I'll say something else. Yeah, I'll say something else. I'll say I think Johnny Manziel still has a chance to be a Hall of Fame quarterback, just so you click on. There's no, there is no basement in Skip Bayless's bullshit.

And that goes for these people as well. Let's get into this right away. First up, Rico Suave Rodriguez here, and that's his nickname, for crashing his car, while shit-faced, by the way, thinking he killed his girlfriend in the passenger seat, and rather than trying to give aid or assistance or help, he instead dragged her, what he thought was her corpse,

what he thought was her corpse, into the driver's seat to try to take the fucking blame for him That's a pretty good lie right there anyway. I mean fuck it right. I mean a DUI won't hurt her But I got a fight coming up next week. You know it's gonna be in the news. I got work Paul gas coin Gaza yeah of course for obviously repeatedly claiming sobriety and then being Gaza again. And really the lies are too countless to even add up over four episodes.

He's just- It's very consistent. It's probably bullshit, I would say. Jason Williams here, remember him? Now Jason Williams not only for lying about everything about the shooting Jason Williams If you don't remember shot his limo driver and then told everyone else to lie about it But not only did he lie he convinced others that they should be as big a liars as him and had them lie to the police

To say they say that he committed suicide. What was there? Oh, yeah, they said he had the gun and he committed suicide at first, then they were like, well I don't know. I just heard a gunshot go off, even though they had like spatter on them and all sorts of shit. And then going out and swimming in the pool and having someone dispose of his clothing, et cetera,

and then saying, oh that poor guy must have been depressed. To wash off the blood they jumped in the pool. It's amazing. Mark Walton, who, for a guy who had such a brief NFL career, really is honestly one of my favorite crime and sports subjects of all time. He was the most fun. Mark Walton, who, if you don't remember,

not only did he freak out after a bail hearing and everything like that, well, after getting into an argument at a pizza place was it Pizza Hut or Papa John's where was he I can't remember. It was Pizza Hut and he was saying Papa John's. Papa John's and he was saying Papa John's that's right. Yeah once arguing with a cop after being being rejected from the walk-up window at fucking Pizza Hut which I don't know what you have to be. You could be actively smoking meth and I think they still hand you out a pizza so he must have been crazy.

Walking around the corner just out of the cops view with the cops behind them and having the cops come upon an unconscious, his unconscious cousin laying there with Mark over him and then Mark said he fell down. I Didn't do that. He's unconscious on the fucking ground in two seconds and then topping that which is the craziest lie ever Topping that lie off with maybe my favorite lie of all time. I'm just trying to get his mama some food She hungry That is incredible proceeded to piss his own. Oh, yeah Yeah, and then proceeded to piss his own pants asked the cop if he could piss his pants And he said I don't care that your pants and then there you go

So judgment that's some yeah, no stuff officer Ricky Ricardo. Yes, that's right. Absolutely officer Ricardo Now next up Capaniapani Savage, again, he's nominated for another one here, for denying that he, acting like it was ridiculous for anyone to accuse him that he gave orders to fire bomb women and children and grandmoms, grandmas in a fucking house,

even though he was recorded saying exactly that, and they played it for him and played it in court, he was like see that's me not wanting them to get killed and they're like what are you talking about you said flame on at the end of it what are you saying baby light my fire you said holy shit singing the doors you guys you've got to be kidding me man. Big fan. Big big fan here. Then finally Trevon Boykin who beat up beat his woman up on video and there was pictures and then when she complained he still called her a liar even though she had video of him beating the shit out of her. So if you're actually if you are actually Trevon Boykin this award would be for her because she's the liar. Now this is a tough category. To give someone an award

for lying with Skip Bayless's name on it it's it's heavy you know what I mean that's the you don't get a bigger liar than that so it's a tough one here and the winner is let's see here the winner winner is it's Mark Walton. That's it everybody It's Mark Walton for yes. See the other two were caught on tape and video Travon and Kibani But that was after the fact that was after this was in real time Unbelievable, he knocked a man out and then denied it while a cop was that's incredible the the the bald-facedness of that is impressive almost it really is and Actually rises to the level of Bayless esque. So

Congratulations, Mark Walton. You're a liar. Good job. You beat some really tough competition in that category as well Not bad at all next up here. This is a fun one here most apt nickname Okay, that's nickname that actually goes with their character now the weird part was this year We had way less nicknames than any other year Yeah, strangely. Yeah, not a lot of hit nicknamed people which was odd. So the competition is fierce. It's fierce We had a few boxers. Yeah, always get a boxer or two and then you got a C fighters. Let's get into it We got a number one hurricane Ruben Carter Sure, that's a good one here. It's a great nickname for a boxer number one

But was fierce in the ring and even when put away for murder He definitely stirred up a lot of dirt and debris enough to get out of prison So that's a hurricane. Good job there. That's apt fast Eddie Johnson, that's Fast Eddie as a much cocaine as he was perpetually on he must have been pretty fucking fast At least his heart was going fast if not his legs and his arms and his mouth We don't know and arrested so many times so many times and quickly do we'd get arrested well That's fast as arrests were fast even

Next up hardcore Nick Gage Right, I mean say what you will about this nut, but he does do some of the craziest shit I've ever seen including lacerated internal organs. He's pretty fucking insane Yeah, the guy is insane has no regard for life limb or his own Fucking well-being so hardcore not too bad of a name for him. And then finally Ricardo el matador Majorga, yeah Now Matt it that's the killer killer is what you call him in the ring He drank and smoked in the ring if you remember

Is what you call him in the ring he drank and smoked in the ring if you remember He would sneak out of training sessions to go smoke some cigarettes Which is unheard of in boxing honestly that's there used to be boxers that smoke But then they would not smoke while they were in training and then they'd smoke after the fight till they were in training again But they didn't just smoke while they were fighting. That's So and also he has rapes and his fraud, all of his frauds were swept away by his corrupt friends. Remember he has the president as his buddy there, but he didn't kill anybody though.

And the killer is really killer. So let's see here, the winner everybody. Let's see it here. It's hardcore Nick Gage. It's hard to- It's hard to argue with that. Yeah, I mean, let's face it,. It's hardcore Nick Gage. It's hard to as hard as it gets. It's hard to argue with that Yeah, I mean let's face it unless Ruben Carter actually knocked some poorly built Florida housing down or Mayarga actually killed someone already Johnson had actually been able to outrun the police that eventually arrested him. It may have been different but

Still it has to go to hardcore. Nick Gage robbed a bank, too Did oh, yeah, yeah wearing the same thing he wears when he goes to the ring. He had the headband on and he put a hoodie up and he was like, yeah, no, they don't know who I am. Nobody'll know. There's like a fucking, like a poster of a local wrestling show on the wall in the bank

when you walk in with his face on it. Is he still alive? He's gotta be still in jail, right? Absolutely, no, he's out. No, he's out. Out and about and stirring in the mix. Yeah, that'll come up later. So next up here, least apt nickname. Because we have the most apt and the least apt.

Now, like I said, we're a little short on nicknames this year. So this is a tough category. Only three applicants to this category here. We have Rico suave Rodriguez nothing nothing suave about nothing is Rico suave about placing your unconscious lady in the driver's seat to avoid a DUI no bueno Rico suave we don't think so it's not good Gaza how the fuck is that short for gas coin? There isn't a Z in his fucking name man

And you got two of them there you son of a bitch Understand that at all so that makes no sense it makes him sound Italian with the two together, too It's like gotcha like he's like a pizza. You know what I mean? That's not a fucking Englishman and next, Prince Hal Chase. Remember he was the old time? Not a prince, yeah. No, old timey baseball player who thought

he was such hot shit that he had a standoff with the league and was accused of throwing games, while his wife, I guess that makes her the princess, literally barbecued their child and burned the house down. Very regal of you. Yes, that's very regal altogether. Very blue blooded.

Winner here in a runaway actually, Rico Suave Rodriguez here. Just a terrible man. Yeah, honestly, even the real Rico Suaveave that scumbag from that video From the early 90s. I think Gerardo was a real guy. His name was just Gerardo. Yeah, even that Scumbag wouldn't have done that and he was covered in grease and looks like he had 17 forms of hepatitis That guy was still wouldn't have done that horrible Gerardo Gerardo. Yeah done that horrible Gerardo Gerardo yeah he was like this little skinny guy is really a weird song but he was just had his head near asses I just gotta see his face golly is he French what is he fuck knows what he was I don't know it's like a Miami Beach dirt bag. I have no clue

Yeah, oh wow sells coke at a nightclub in Miami Beach Wearing a wig for grace well. He's got the bandana on it might have been a wig. What's the whole thing put it on? Yeah, looks like he should be the third member of Millie Vanilla yes if they needed like like a Spanish influence Millie Vanilli Latino edition. Manuto Manilli they call them. Manuto Vanilli Manilli. Millie Manuto. Jesus. There's so many Spanish words that sound similar, but the two L's make a different sound. Yeah. I know, because I have them in my name. It's Mani of the Vini.

Depending. If I'm in Arizona, I'm Pietra Gallo. I'm like, nope, wrong one. Wrong ethnic. Other side. There you go so Now so Rico wins this now if there was even one Z in Gaza's actual name or if Prince Halche said even though For whatever he did if he had actually fallen from a royal cooch. It may have been different

But unfortunately for them Rico you are the winner. Good job Rico way to be a complete loser there. Good job You are the winner. Good job, Rico. Way to be a complete loser there. Good job. Next up, this is a fun one. And it's really one of the most competitive categories outside of scumbag of the year, the biggie. Yeah, that's a good one here. The biggie. This is a pretty competitive category

because we get a lot of terrible childhoods that make athletes. And this is the worst childhood award here. The award for worst childhood award here. Okay. Award for worst childhood. And while I will, uh, expand on a couple of these to let you in on their childhoods, cause some of them that you need to hear the details. Uh, Ruben Samado, number one soccer player. Um,

he grew up in Casal de Mira, a tough neighborhood in a Lisbon's suburbs here in Portugal. His parents were immigrants. His father was jailed when he was five years old and he didn't see him again for 10 years. They just took him away. His mother had to leave the house at 4 a.m. in the morning to go to work, which meant he and his sister grew up in the streets. Yep.

Sameda's mother took over the family and was doing all this and got him into soccer. One of his old friends said Ruben Samada has not had a simple life. He came from a difficult neighborhood. His father was in prison. He had a lot of bad influences in that neighborhood. When I spoke to people who knew him, they all said to me, he is a good boy. But when he's with his friends from the neighborhood, he transforms into another person. A bad boy. A bad boy a bad boy

Not great. So, uh, there's him. That was a rough rough upcoming Ted Turner Not yeah, obviously the CNN Ted Turner But Theodore Turner the old timey ballplayer baseball player who grew up in a crime family with 11 siblings His entire family were criminals, all of them. Even the babies were criminals. It was wild. They all turned into criminals, murderers, and prostitutes.

That's literally what they were. He was in jail before he had his first pub, old Ted. So never had a chance, Ted Turner. He was always gonna be on this show. He was slated and destined for it in like 1884. He knew, he knew. Before even radioated and destined for it in like 1884. He knew. Before even radio was invented he was set for a podcast. Next up Norbert Grupe, also known as Wilhelm von Homburg, his dad Richard, an old dick groupie, was

born in Homburg and he was in the First World War and his father was a policeman who would eat two pounds of raw bacon at a time and was such an alcoholic that young Norbert could smell him before he came through the door. Gross. So I mentioned his dad was a Nazi as well. Like a real, not just like a neo, a real German Nazi. He said, he said, this is Norbert,

I can smell that Papa is home, he would tell his mother. His father would drink so much that he would shit his pants. Awesome. And the kid would have to wash him. So he had to wash his Nazi dad's shitty pants. Oh my God. So he said, imagine, imagine your dad shits, drinks so much he shits his. And then you have to clean it.

This is this happens a lot. And then he says, just today, clean it already. Fucking lazy son of a bitch. And you're like, oh, no. In the early hours of December 4th, 2024, CEO Brian Thompson stepped out onto the streets of Midtown Manhattan. This assailant starts firing at him. And the suspect, He has been identified as Luigi Nicholas Mangione,

became one of the most divisive figures in modern criminal history. I was meant to sow terror. He's awoking the people to a true issue. Listen to Law and Crime's Luigi exclusively on Wondery Plus.

Yup. His sister said just a shitty childhood and he was also had such a shitty childhood that he broke in and raped his stepmother when he was still a boy. So bad thing, bad times there. Next up, Hurricane Ruben Carter. He was born the fourth of seven children in New Jersey. His father actually owned small businesses and did pretty well, was the deacon of a Baptist church, but that didn't help Ruben Rubin said the kindest thing I have to say about my childhood is that I survived it his father Because Rubin fought in the streets all the time his father beat him constantly

So he all of all the beatings he'd he received from his father made him he beat a stutter into him Right. He started stuttering after that So he would then beat up bullies and all that kind of thing. He got expelled from school. He even punched the local preacher. Why not? Why not? Ruben's dad put him to work at age eight.

Doing what? Well, work. Like making him work, doing shit. Like going out getting a job. Yeah. Because this is like 1945 so right the say at the age of nine Carter stole some new clothes gave them to his brothers and sisters his father saw the new clothes and after beating his son Half to death turned him into the police as well

That's rough man Spent most of his youth in juvenile report reformatory and reform schools He stabbed a man who tried to rape him Jesus Christ then was sent to a home for boys and stayed there for two years before he escaped That's a that is that is the worst thing Harrowing fucking childhood, man. Well, if that's- It's amazing he survived.

That's the worst thing. Wait till you hear about Ricardo El Matador Mayorga. What'd he do? Well, he was raised, I believe, in Nicaragua, right? And yeah, and we're talking unimaginable to American eyes poverty. Squall. Yeah, the shit that we would see here like backwoods

Dirt floor type of shit. These people would laugh at that and go that looks lovely, please At least there's a roof He had five siblings and they all grew up in a one-room hovel with a dirt floor and cinder block walls That they just like put together to make it there wasn't't even a structure. It was just, just walls to keep wind out. That's all it was. You could do that in your backyard. Go make one right now. Uh, he said, my Orga, I come from a country where everything is war. Even the women are tough in Nicaragua and Nicaragua. Women give birth wherever in the middle of the street in the countryside with no

medical attention You see that and it puts a totally different perspective on things That's what he says it. I don't It's something No medical attention spitting kids out and on the double yellow is pretty fucking That's something squeezes a baby out while you order a chai latte. That's crazy shit You're at a red light before it turns green. This woman's cutting an umbilical cord That's another baby in the room. Holy Christ his father Eddie

Worked a series of menial jobs and according to Ricardo and everybody else used his belt for beating the shit out of everybody Yes, Ricardo's mother and father still live in that same house, even after Ricardo had an 11-room mansion. And he said they became attached to the place where we suffered through such poverty. He also spent six of his teenage years in a gang. And he has tons of scars and everything else, scars on top of his head from lead pipes, and he's got my wounds and everything else. So this is a tough one here.

It's a tough guy. I don't know if it is or not, to be honest, because he didn't really have a chance and a choice because that's just what the what the shit is in Nicaragua. That's hard though. That's a different kind of poverty. Having that having a similar poverty in America, where all the opportunity is, that's fucking crazy. That's tough.

I mean, and it's tough because between a one room hovel and dirt floor shitholes and street gangs, and also think about changing your Nazi father's shitty work pants. Shitty pants. That's pretty rough. And doing whatever to you that causes you to believe it's okay to rape your stepmom means that your dad did something to you.

So it was between Norbert and Ricardo Mayorga. Now Brandy leaned toward Mayorga on this one, which was surprising to me, only because she's a cat and hates dirty floors, I believe is what she was into. She's like, I could never grow up like that with all the dirt around. Gets in your little toe beans. But Frankie being of Argentinian descent, Oscar being German, and Benny being Italian, they just won't abide Nazis. They will not abide Nazis at all, so they would not vote for anything positive for Norbert

Grupe. And the winner here is Ricardo Mayorga. Wow. So it was a tough one. It was close. anything positive for Norbert Group A. And the winner here is Ricardo Mayorga. Wow. So it was a tough one, it was close. Ruben Carter was a close third there. But just the fact that he grew up in, an American juvie is better than a Nicaraguan home.

It seems like as far as everything goes. He did stab the guy that raped him. He did, that's the thing. He wasn't taking any shit. If he got stabbed and raped, it would have been him all the way. But he did the stabbing. Next up, really one of my favorite awards, a top award here. This one, it's the top silver haired middle-aged white man award. Now it's been changed though to the Vince McMahon Dana White Memorial Silver Scumbag Award that we give it to. Because they would win every year.

They just trade it back and forth because you can't get worse than those two people. Now Vince is kind of irrelevant at this point because he's not even doing shit anymore. He's letting his hair go gray now. It's crazy. And turning into Gomez Adams in the face. Dana White, still a monster

and a scumbag and just a complete utter piece of shit that you would fucking wash off with a hose from the bottom of your Reebok. So let's see who matches up to this. We have Frank Seeley, who was the manager of the Detroit Tigers and put up with Marty Bergen's horse shit because he was a decent player. Marty Bergen would run away from the team. He would punch teammates during like team dinners. He would like start mail a's and brawls for no reason. Tell people to fuck off. Very strange. I mean, for just a decent baseball player, this guy really went over the top to keep this guy around. Next up, Don King. Hey.

I mean, come on, for his work with Ricardo Mayorga. He worked with him. Oh. Yeah, not only did he look the other way through all of his insanity, but he also, this happened here. Mayorga didn't have a lot of interest in coming to the United States,

so for his first fight under Don King, it took Don King weeks of persuasion to have Mayorga leave his home and prepare for the bout at King's training facility here. Um, so they said that Mayorga escaped to Nicaragua four times and Don King, rather than saying, I'm not going to be in this relationship anymore. You're not serious said quote if you leave again I'm taking away your American visa Now that is silver everybody. I will control your movement on this earth

If you piss me off is as silver as it gets right there Normally this award is for someone who no matter how terrible this person's Atrocities have affected society you will always, it's kind of like the golden gilritha for men you're not related to. For somebody that's not related, yeah. Type of thing. Although you don't really have to be a man to win this.

A woman could win this award theoretically. So that is pretty silver. And then there's Ted Turner's father. Ted Turner was in trouble since birth. He was always getting arrested, but his dad had an idea of, you know, how to help this here. His dad, when he was arrested as a youth for not even a youth, a teenager for just a fucking plethora of crimes, he went to the, uh, he is,

his dad was found in contempt of court by judge Charles a Wilson Because he tried to he offered money to try to bribe the juvenile court To secure the release of his son who was being held at an industrial school That's silver, baby Actually Jackson sound Wow To actually bribe a court is really that's that's silver, baby. To actually- As a Jackson sound to it. Wow. To actually bribe a court is really, that's silver right there.

Yeah. The winner of this award though, let's see what we got here, winner of this award, it's Don King. It was never a question. He's a, yeah, he's a monster that certainly pushes shit away. Oh, and if he keeps this up for a couple more years,

he could get his name on the wall, you know what I years, he could get his name on the wall You know what? I mean he could get his name on the cup next to Vince McMahon and Dana White really like that's No one stole the amount of money. He's Cheated people out of and everything else. Oh my god. Plus we still have to do an episode on Don King Yeah, he did murder a man Play did he play a sport at all? No, he's the fucking biggest boxing promoter there ever that's ever existed. Yeah, that's that's fair. Well, sure.

It's certainly fair game because he's been involved. I think he boxed it. So I don't remember. He killed the guy. Right. He killed a guy and no one's synonymous as synonymous with their sport as Don King is in boxing. So it's fine.

We can do him. He's good. So, yeah, he's Jerry Jones also is he could really always sneak onto that cup, too Yeah, he could get his name on the wall as well. There's no basement for what he will excuse and look over So alright, let's move on to our next category here This is a fun one to most brazen excuse This is fun. This is it's kind of like biggest liar, but biggest liar can be for anything.

You know? Yeah, and more of them. Yeah, exactly. This is just the most, the biggest. This is the biggest single lie, rather than a lifetime cumulative. Career of them. Yeah, a body of work really,

is what the first one is. The Skip Balas Award is for a body of work really is what the first one is the skip alice award is for a body of work that you know adds up to pure scum Consistently yeah forgetting what facts are anybody could have a great rookie year, but what can you do for a ten-year period now? Let's look at your numbers. You know I'm saying yeah Let's see where Otani is when he's 35 on the list before we start comparing him to Babe Ruth. That's all I'm saying He's great He's great, but again, but who knows he may get caught gambling again

Well, this number one they already did that they already shuffled that under the and he's already had a major injury and yeah So who knows? I mean guys people human beings aren't built the same to play the game and he's got had a major injury, and so who knows? I mean, guys, people, human beings aren't built the same to play the game, and he's got a lot of money, so I don't know if he's gonna play at least 40 and accumulate the body of Korea. An injury that's gonna be nagging for the rest of his life,

he may not want two of those. That's what I'm saying. So if he gets one that really fucks with him, he may just not play. Especially with his lucrative gambling, I mean, who knows? Yeah, he's doing great. He may just walk away. Especially with his lucrative gambling. I mean, who knows? Yeah, he's doing great. He should just keep doing that.

So most brazen excuse, first of all, Cabani Savage, number one. Yeah. Now, he says, obviously, and his big lie, that he didn't have anything to do with the children and women being barbecued by a firebomb, but he is caught on tape saying quote They should have took him and got some barbecue sauce and poured it on them sons of bitches

When referring to burn dead children and women here Casey masterpiece on him. Yeah, and then said of the alleged snitches mother who was also burned to death in this fire quote I'm glad the bitch died. Yeah Then Regarding the children not only should some barbecue sauce be put on all of everybody He said this is specific to the children quote fuck them fucking little baby. She fucking little baby He should have died his pops a rat He would have been a mouse his mom's a rat and the pit bull that was in there. That was a rat and pit bulls clothing

So that's him saying I'm happy that I killed children their mother and a dog. That's all wonderful I do it again. I do it again, but then said I didn't do that at all I had nothing to do with it And as you heard his mother completely backing up that account, which is why she's the winner of the Golden-Gilwreath Award Yeah, because that's on tape and she ignores it. So that's pretty incredible Next up fast Eddie Johnson Yeah, yeah the day after Johnson had checked himself out of a facility against the wishes of everybody He was arrested for stealing a Porsche from a car dealer.

And he said that guy thought I was going to buy a car. He let me test drive it. I stayed a little longer than usual. To steal a Porsche for two days and then say I just stayed a little longer than usual is a brazen excuse. Than usual. Than usual which is you know 10-15 minutes. I said about 48 hours what do you say about that? Close? No. Okay Tom Payne everybody remember him the seven foot tall rapist. If it was a his excuse was it was a different seven foot tall rapist. Not me. With the exact same MO of putting a towel over a woman's face before you rape

them. There has to be thousands of seven foot tall rapists wandering around, right? Obviously. He used the shaggy excuse of it wasn't me. One me. But she saw your face. One me. But you used the same MO. One me. You're seven feet fucking tall, Tom. There's no one. There's two guys in the whole state that are seven feet tall.

Tom. He just wasn't me. Not me, though. Must have been him. It's amazing. Gaza also, saying he just wanted to bring his organized crime friend who was having a standoff with police for days some food during the standoff

but doesn't actually know anything about this guy's criminal background or anything that he does that's bad. Just a buddy. Yeah, I got the... And they let him do it. Teriyaki chicken, sweet onion, vinaigrette. It's brand new from Subway. They love it. He's gonna love it. I got the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the,

the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, is quote, it was consensual. So I think you know what his crime was. God. I don't ever want to have to say that. Adding that he never heard her say no or stop, even though she was physically fighting him.

And she said, had that, he said, had that been the case, I would have completely granted her wishes. We're not even those type of guys, because remember there was a bunch of guys involved in this. We wouldn't want anybody to feel uncomfortable around us. Especially while we're raping them. No, it was in a dorm room, I think. Oh, okay.

Especially while we're raping them. We want them to feel comfortable at that point, you know what I mean? So. It was consensual. It was consensual. Oh, god damn it. Yeah, so Keith Appling, by the way,

is one of those guys that, as I was going through everything, I was like, who the fuck is that? I didn't even remember the guy. You have to understand, when we did the scummies back in the day, like the first couple years, the first year we did it, we just had crime in sports. So I remembered every detail that everybody did. And even the second and third year, we had crime in sports,

and we had like an hour, hour and a half small town murder every week Pretty fucking easy to still remember everything now. I think we do is it 18 shows a week? I think 26 shows a week We do some more somewhere around 37. It's it's a it's about a hundred and forty two shows a month We cram into this so Between two different small town murders and your stupid opinions and fucking for patreon episodes every month I don't fucking remember Anything so this takes going through every bit of notes that we do to do this episode and Keith Appling I would never ever want to say

You don't understand James and I were not those kinds of guys. We're not those kinds of guys was consensual We wouldn't want anybody to feel uncomfortable around us I understand, James and I were not those kinds of guys. We're not those kinds of guys. It was consensual. We wouldn't want anybody to feel uncomfortable around us. I mean, sure we were having sex with her against her will, but I mean, she seemed comfortable. I got her a pillow and everything. Keith, that implies you gang raped a woman. Oh yeah.

You fucking asshole. But they made her comfortable, Jimmy, Jesus Christ. That's why it's a brazen excuse. The winner of this category, let's see what it is. It's Tom Payne, everybody. Yeah, just the dumbest man ever. When you're seven feet tall, whatever happens around you that a witness says

was done by a seven foot tall man, it's fucking you. Not to mention, if it's the same MO, not to mention if you got put in prison for years And then let out and then it's the same thing you were doing before you got put in prison the first time It's probably you so Tom congratulations to you sir Somehow he's still alive. I don't know how that happened, but I can't believe it and they're interviewing him like he's like for Kentucky They're doing interviews with him like he's just good old-fashioned alumni like they don't even mention You know all the raping doesn't even lots of it

He's just talking about Kentucky and hope they have a good season and are you out of your fucking mind? Two prison stretches for it Tommy. Yeah a lot Next up longest fall from grace. Yeah now every episode we have a point of grace Which is there at their pinnacle nothing could be better for them and it starts to go downhill How high were you before you fell is the question here? Yeah. Well first up here the contestants Brian Phelps Brian Phelps was the English Olympic swimmer who was a hero in his country from like the age of 12 on the English Olympic swimmer who is a hero in his country from like the age of 12 on from youth swimming hero to the Olympics to being one of the most respected children's swimming coaches in the world to then being a repeated and unapologetic kid diddler doesn't

get any lower than that real doesn't get any farther of a fall than that right I would say gross how about Gaza let's look at him. It's pretty bad too yeah. He was a national hero beloved even had hit music that we'll talk about right in another category. He was truly an icon and now he's still beloved but when people hear his name they're waiting to hear what drunken debacle he's fucking gotten himself into now. That's all. What booze took him. What? Yeah. What did it here? Uh, Jason Williams. Think about this. He was the king of New Jersey. Basically. He knew everybody. He had a hundred million fucking dollars.

He had 25,000 square foot house and acres and a shooting range, a compound, all of this. And from all of this from being being just an arrogant, egotistical dipshit, he went from all of that to a laughing stock and a murderer on top of that. Right. Next up, a similar type of guy, Tom Payne. Tom Payne from Pioneer, the first black player

on the Kentucky basketball team. It's a starter, big deal deal from all this pioneering from all of this to Repeated and repugnant rapist just an awful piece of shit. That's a pretty far drop I think they're not good and Gary Brabham. You remember him Gary Brabham He was from racing royalty. His dad was Sir Jack Brabham who was a racer and okay? I guess whatever the fuck is that an is that knighted when you're sir Yeah, met the fucking queen met the queen and got sorted out there ding-ding. Yep fucking did him. She hit him with the sword She did him good. That's his uh, yeah, you got made. That's like a bit slick English. It's like being in the mob, but English

He had money, a name, respect, he had a golden path to a life of admiration and respect, and then what did he do? He fucking molested kids. Jesus Christ. Absolute piece of shit. Why is that probably the number one crime to commit as a car driver?

I don't know. A race car driver. Well, drivers, it's drugs and it's drug-like transporting because you have this big thing and it's a lot of financial bullshit because you need to steal money to run this race team. Yeah. Or.

Or this. Or this, which is pretty goddamn gross. I guess, yeah, come sit on my lap as all new, disgusting meaning here. The winner of this award, this is is the tough category longest wall for grace You have to think about where the grace was you know what I mean and where the bottom was too It's Jason Williams everybody. Yeah, it has to be yeah sure. He didn't fuck any kids. That's true I'll give you that but to have them the most amazing life you could possibly

Yeah, listen at an estate with a name. Yeah, there's like a part in his four-parter there that's all about the good times, kind of. And it's just, it's ridiculous. He's just living this insane life that everybody would dream about. And everyone knows him, but he doesn't actually have to do anything

because he's an injured, you know, ex-basketball player. Highest paid fucking guy on the team Yeah to throw all of that away so you could literally play with guns like a 12 year old Who shot his little sister by accident is fucking ridiculous Gross and the arrogance behind it's mind-boggling and he is definitely the winner of the fall from grace Next up the cracked egg award Yeah for most brain damage acquired and accumulated over the course of your career So this is a again really a tough one first up Ricardo el matador my Orga

Again all of the crazy shit. He did memory was calling people like racial slurs and shit Well, he was smoking before fights and everything like that There has got to be a significant amount of brain damage Not to mention his skull was caved in with a lead pipe before he was even a fighter Yeah before even got into this so rain damage. Holy shit the amount of their Next up Gaza now There's something there right? Yeah, I don't know? Yeah, I don't know where his brain damage came from. I know they say that heading soccer balls

is just as bad as getting punched. It's not good for your fucking head at all and can definitely cause brain damage. But he must have brain damage to be Gaza. He just has to be. There's no way that's normal brain functioning doing that. Next up Marty Bergen. He's an old timey ball player who would just disappear, fight teammates, all doing that. Next up Marty Bergen he's an old-timey ball

player who would just disappear fight teammates all of that he would threaten to kill teammates for minor infractions teammates like in the dugout. When he went to the doctor to figure out what was wrong with them and why he acted so fucking crazy they told him he had quote heart. Which that's how long ago that was. Tobacco heart was a diagnosis. Heart disease. No, no. That's why he was acting crazy because he had tobacco heart.

Oh, tobacco heart in the head. In the head. But we know what it really was. Brain damage. The old pudding brain. That's right. Next up, Steven Pete. You remember him? No. Hockey Okay. He was so brain damaged from years

Remember he was the guy that we watched all of his fights He's a fucking just a beast of a fighter Yeah, he had some great fights But unfortunately that also may make you want to burn down your own house because that's what he did here also may make you want to burn down your own house because that's what he did here. When he did burn down his house here, Stephen said part of me was like, I want to sit and burn with the house

because I knew the consequences of doing something like that and embarrassing myself like that. It wasn't my first tragedy in life, you know? This, in the middle of this interview of saying that, he said his head hurt and he needed Tylenol and Coca-Cola from his truck. I've talked too much, my head hurts. That's how bad this is.

Then someone who knows him that was right there said that's how he is, he can't focus. He'll be cooking something, we'll answer the phone and walk away. I'm like, Stephen, you left the stove on. So that's not gonna be the only fire he's ever been in here. He's homeless now, isn't he? Well, we'll get to that in a second. So a couple days before this interview, Stephen missed a turn and got lost on his way to the recreation center where he goes every single day. A week before, his dad heard

muffled cries for help and found Steven pinned underneath his pickup truck because he was fixing something and didn't set the jack. He just forgot to do it. Oh, Steven. Yes, he ended up living on the street and in his truck with a nasty drug habit and then dying in a car accident.

Jeez. Miserable, miserable end to that poor bastard. And just recently too. Oh yeah, this is all recent, yeah, because he stopped playing hockey in like 2007. So, next up, Everson Griffin, the Vikings defensive lineman there, broke into a teammate's house,

then hid shirtless in the bushes from the cops. Why, you may ask, because quote, God told me to yeah he said take your shirt off and break into your fucking offensive tackles house just go in there he also has drug issues but we all know the real cause of this insane behavior brain damage absolutely next up how chase the Prince himself he was crazy yes but I'm not sure it's even brain damage But I am letting him into this category because he may be the only person we've ever covered who has had the smallpox

I don't think anyone else has had smallpox that we've covered right I Don't think so So good enough. He was so old that I'm sure he got kicked in the head by a mule or something at some point Do something had to cause this and Then finally Nick Gage Yes, walking into the bank like he did and every other thing he does just screams brain damage I mean it does and we've seen him take massive blows to the head. It's got to be brain damage You know here we go winner of this award in a runaway. This was a unanimous vote five-nothing Steven Pete in a runaway. This was a unanimous vote. Five nothing. Stephen Pete. Stephen Pete.

Nick Gage is nuts. Marty Bergens nuts. Nobody can call any of these people stable, but most of them wouldn't drop a truck on themselves because they forgot to set the jack. That's another level of brain damage. That's crazy. And the car accident was probably his fault. I'm sure it was. Yeah. He probably turned or something. He forgot. He was driving and then He thought he was in England. He was on the wrong side of the road. There's a lot of things that could happen, you know Next up a new cat. This is a new award everybody. We're adding a new one here This is the award for best side gig So this is best. Yeah side career, career, things of that nature.

He's had Bill Murray ad-lib shit-talking to his painting. Who else can say that? Has Bill Murray ever ad-lib shit-talking to a painting of either of us?

Fuck no. I don't think he roasted me. No. And all he had to do was exist, to be pointed to and painted, and he's immortalized. That's all he had to do. Unbelievable. That's a hell of a side gig right there. Next up, Joe Pepitone.

Foxy Lady. Foxy Lady. It's so many pictures of his dong, though. I like the one where he's sitting room in the office. Foxy Lady. Foxy Lady. It's so many pictures of his dong though. I like the one where he's sitting backwards in the chair with his dong hanging like through the fucking back of the chair. I hate it. That's my favorite.

That's pretty funny with his big fluffy hair, which is a wig. That is Playgirl Magazine. That is so bizarre that we call that Foxy Lady and it's a very hairy guy with his dick out. Foxy Lady. Well, playboy is for men who are playboys and they want to look at naked women. And then finally, this is a surprise.

Of our, so many people saying like, holy shit, I've always had this guy hanging up on my entryway because of Ghostbusters 2. I never knew he was a rapist and all this shit. This kind of sucks.

So many of that. He lives in their own house, how about it? Next up, this is the, a Gimme Award, but this year it's a little different. The Mandy Maloon Award for actually contributing something positive to society, as we know she went to Congress to testify about diddlers, which is very positive.

The award this year goes to absolutely no one. Nobody. We are proud to say that not one of this year's people have contributed a single positive thing to this society we exist in. Not a redeeming soul amongst this podcast this year. Not one. Tom Payne acts like a nice guy, but we've seen that before. Just get a dish rag near him and that's going to change. Jason Williams wants to be looked at as a nice guy but we've seen that before just get a dish rag near him and that's gonna change Jason Williams wants to be looked at as a nice guy but I'm not fucking buying it otherwise pure scum all around so this award goes vacant for this year we are we are sorry can't even give it to Mandy this year the

poor gal no no no she's so much trouble he's having some problems and now we hate that because we fucking love Mandy as a person and she's a real good person beyond just saying oh crime and sports. No she's a real person and she's a she's a good person and she's not a person that made a hundred million dollars and lived that kind of life. She's a person who worked real hard got kicked around a lot and just as having some problems. So if you're friends with Mandy on social media or whatever, just say, hey, you know, we got your back and we like you reach out to her because yeah, we're all thinking about Mandy. So next up is most likely to have a second crime and sports episode. Yeah, now this one here is a tough

one because most of the real bad ones this year are either dead or in prison for life. So it's hard to, hard to mount another episode from the grave or the, or the solitary confinement 23 hours a day wing there. So all right, let's find out who we have though. This year, Travis Henry first up. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Travis Henry, he's got enough kids to feel two opposing basketball teams. My God.

And then an extra two. So he's got enough baby mamas to fill two opposing basketball teams. That's insane. Eleven kids by ten women at last count here. No money with support judgments coming out of his ass that he can't pay. He could get desperate and if he does, I am confident he has the ability to pull off a major crime of robbery and possibly even violence I think he's got it in him. He may be done running the football, but I'm confident that his car his crime career is far from over

I really believe that next up Mark Walton, I Mean he's it's not done. That's gonna get so bad. Oh, he's insane. He's angry. He's violent He's not shy about being on film. The guy is willing to piss his pants. Willing to do it. He'll punch his own cousins with cops present and lie about it. He loses his mind outside his own bond hearings.

I think he's got a lot more crime in him and there's a big way he's reached, there's no way he's reached his peak criminality. Put it that way. He's got a big future, folks. Keep an eye on him. Late round draft pick, but we really think he could make the team do some contributions to everything right here Next up Ruben Samado Ruben he rapes he robs he pillages. He's got it all

He's got it all and he's still playing soccer. He's still being paid to play actually Yeah, yeah Once the career is over and the money begins to dry up and there's then I feel like from then there's just no ceiling to his criminal behavior. We have a potential murderer on our hands. Sky's the limit, folks. You can do it, Ruben.

Next up, Ricardo Mayorga. Somehow he's still alive, first of all. I don't know how that happened, but he's currently helping to prop up a dictator in his own country. Oh, yeah, he's, yeah, yeah. So I mean, yeah, a lot of these guys rape, they may rob, they may even kill,

but none of them have the potential for an actual international incident, maybe even a war crime or two. Nobody has that potential but Ricardo. Maybe a coup and take over and be leader. You never know, yeah's if it's about fists I think he can do it. He could do it. Or smoking ability to smoke the most I think he could probably win that one too. And also next up hardcore Nick Gage. He's got brain damage and app nickname and

no regard for his own physical safety or well-being and he's broke. He likes drugs and is dumb enough to rob a bank with his face out. He could end up blowing up an elementary school wearing his actual ring gear. If anything is possible for this big time up and comer, I really feel like he's got a chance. Let's find out the winner here now. My org is the craziest, but I'm afraid his new exalted

position with his government will essentially make him above the law. He could do anything and he's not going to get in trouble for it. Now Nick Gage, I said potential, but I also feel like he may just recede into a drug haze. Possible, yeah. That's possible. So it came down. Might get a bad batch with fentanyl in it, James.

Yeah. So when someone's doing that much drugs and shit like that, it's only a matter of time before something, this is going to affect of time before something this is gonna affect them It's either gonna kill them and they're gonna have a major OD and then he might just clean his life up at that point So he could turn it all around. That's why he's not the winner here It all came down to Samado versus Mark Walton Now this seems to be an easy win for Samado you would imagine with his young age his violent history Sure, but in an upset Mark Walton is the winner. His potential for crazy is really

unmatched. That's the thing. He's a wild card. He's a Charlie Day. He's a Charlie Day and he's like a wide receiver who runs like a 4-2-40 but has some questionable behavioral background. He's like when Randy Moss was coming out of college Also like a number three receiver where you don't even see him coming. That's that well that was Randy in his first season That's what I'm saying. So yeah, he's a weapon You never know teams are gonna pass up on him because they don't know about him But you just know the pure talent for crazy can make him a Hall of Famer really cats He could be the next you know Randy Moss Des Bryant type

You know what I mean Pretty bad fucking guy Next up and I like this one a lot to person you'd least want to date your daughter Right, that's a good one here. No murder included by the way in this otherwise It would just be all the murders is all sexual assault all the time sometimes you never know first up Travon Boykin a true domestic violence all-star this guy is. He really is. I mean, after a day after his girlfriend accused him of choking and beating her in Texas here,

Boykin, I guess, broke her jaw during an altercation. Yeah, they said that the girlfriend who said she's been in a relationship with Boykin since high school Says she was home when they began to argue over a text message She wanted her to see on her he wanted to see on her phone She refused to unlock the phone quote so he goes into a choke I remember him choking me and I'm trying to calm him down and I just couldn't and I blacked out I just couldn't calm him down at all. It's a bad guy It's a yeah She said the pressure was just hard the pressure got hard to where I just remember just

Collapsing completely and I woke up in a puddle of blood on the kitchen floor My whole right side was full of blood and on the kitchen floor you almost died Yeah, he eventually dragged her to a bathtub stripped her naked and tried to clean her Was that so he think she was dead? That's exactly what I was gonna say. He thought she was dead. He was like, well, I better get rid of this corpse now. I feel like that's what he was doing.

Well, clean up time. Hours later, Boykin drove her to the hospital, but when hospital staff separated them and began asking questions, she said Boykin fled the hospital and never returned. Yeah, I'm not coming back either. She had a broken jaw on both sides of her jaw, right on left.

Whoa. Yeah, that is fucking wild. That's crazy. Also, Rico Suave Rodriguez, he's not the guy you want coming to the door with a corsage, I don't think. This guy, he'll drink, take your daughter out for a cruise, then crash and try to frame her limp lifeless corpse for a crime Isn't that nice?

Corsage right there on her wrist a true gentleman of the highest order. Yeah, and they say chivalry is dead. No Chivalry is not dead. It's just shit-faced and trying to pin a crime on your dead daughter. That's all it is I mean he did open two doors for her. Well, you know The house on the way out in the car door to get in And they dragged her from the seat Roshan Jones an MMA fighter who constantly beat the living shit out of his girlfriends including his pregnant girlfriend Repeatedly beating her he did get arrested for the for double murder in a laundromat, but that's not why he's here He's a true visionary in the world of domestic violence

And that's what lands him among this such prestigious company where he is now and next up of course Travis Henry, what would this yeah category be without Travis Henry 11 kids by 10 women So he's probably got like, you know, eleven thousand two hundred and twelve yards in the NFL 11 kids by 10 women. So he's probably got like, you know, 11,212 yards in the NFL, 11 kids by 10 women. He's doing great. He is absolutely impregnating your daughter and not paying for the kid. 100% chance of that. Nevermind in vitro or any of that. The doctor should ask if you're having trouble conceiving, they should say, have you tried fucking Travis Henry? Cause he'll put one in you. Have you taken a handful of this man's load?

Because it will do the trick. There's women with hysterectomies that are like, how did I get pregnant? I have none of the, where is this kid even going? I don't even know what's happening. It's crazy. So there's him. Now the winner here, okay.

Here we go. Now Travis Henry will knock up your daughter, yes. And Trevon Boykin will will beat her fine. That's true Absolutely, where Shawn Jones may make her a co-conspirator and a murder You never know also not good But no one and I mean no one would have the pure scumbaggery to almost kill your daughter then instead of trying to help her and give her medical attention would attempt instead to frame her for his crime a attention would attempt instead to frame her for his crime a

Mind-blowing level of scum that really takes this particular reward to new heights Rico Rodriguez. Congratulations You get it. You get it, buddy Next up and this is a smaller category the please turn it around award or Gather Ron LaFleur Memorial. We want a root for you award Award. And let's see what we have here. Please get it together. Number one, Everson Griffin, the Vikings player here, who seems to have a lot of problems. If all of this is truly drugs, mental illness, and brain damage, we really root for him

to not take his shirt off and break into people's houses. We'd like that. And he seems like a decent guy minus his mental episodes. He seems okay. Yeah, it doesn't seem like that's Necessarily really him. Yeah, he wasn't hiding in the bushes to jump out and rape anybody which is a positive So we hope that Everson can do it Second up Tom Payne now before you jump in say why do you want to root for him? See, I know it's coming this nomination isn't because we feel for him or want good things to happen to him.

This is just to protect anyone in the future for being raped by a giant. We just don't want any giant rapists. Yeah. Any woman that finds herself within arms reach in a dish rag. Yeah, you're in trouble, lady. Travis Henry up next.

There isn't even really hope that he turns this all around. That's a lot to ask for. It's a lot. Just hope he gets a vasectomy. That's all. We just hope he learns about the wonders of myriad birth control methods that are available to him. Specifically, the fucking vasectomy.

That's a big one. Thus negating the need to be jailed further for missing child support payments. Now the winner here, okay, although we really want Travis to find the condom aisle of the grocery store and we really don't want any more rape, this award goes to Everson Griffin. Anytime a 275 pound man with a penchant for violence can get his mental health in order, I think it's a win for all of us, right? For sure. I think that works for me Next up here is the worst father award

This is a very competitive category is everybody has kids and very few of these people give a shit about them So this excludes the obvious choice is no kid fucking here. No diddlers Yeah, we could could call this whole show Bad Fathers Day. Bad Fathers Day. Absolutely. It could be renamed this shit. Who happened to also play sports? Bad Fathers who also can jump and run.

So first up, Mark Ingram Sr. for owing a whopping over $200,000 in child support. That is truly shirking all of your responsibilities and not giving a fuck. Did he even pay a dollar for Christ's sake? Wow, and also for spending much of his kid's childhood in federal prison as well, which doesn't help either. Floyd Mayweather, Sr. Oh boy, he is a bad dad.

Not only do we know he was a terrible father because he himself has produced an alumni of this very show, so just the results say terrible father. That alone would qualify you for this award, but it's the quality of the parenting. He's called a hard taskmaster, often punctuating his lessons with a beating if he thought it would help get this his point across Floyd Mayweather jr. Said my father would beat me for anything I did even if I didn't hadn't done anything I used to pray for the day I could become an adult and get away from it. I got so tired of being beat

My dad was kind of hard on me as a child. He really didn't have a child life I was jogging with combat boots on and chopping wood at the age of 10. It was kind of like school. Everything I did when I was younger I got beaten for. It was so bad, the belt or the extension cord." If that wasn't enough, he also accused the fruit of his demented loins. He used him as a human shotgun shield you remember that yeah yeah and he said if you're uncle or his mom his mom's brother and he said quote if you're going to kill me you're gonna kill this baby too and he said I wasn't gonna put that baby down I didn't want to die it wasn't about putting my son in the line of fire. Yeah, you did. So that's horrifying. It's a hundred percent putting your son.

Jesus. The next one's very obvious. Travis Henry. I mean, there's no way you can, he's not paying for, he's not paying attention to, he's a terrible father, just a bad, bad father. Yeah, not good at all here. Next up, Marty Bergen, an insane baseball player, always a terrible dad due to his flightiness and unpredictability, inability to hold down a gig, and this, I'll read from the newspaper from 1908 or whatever it was, quote, as he passed in a terrible, as he passed in a terrible sight greeted his eyes, Marty Bergen's body and that of the little girl Florence, six

and a half years old, were lying on the kitchen floor while in the adjoining bedroom were the bodies of Mrs. Bergen and her three-year-old son, Joseph. Mrs. Bergen was lying on the bed with her feet hanging over the side while her hands were raised as though in supplication or trying to ward off the blow. The little boy was lying on the floor with his brains oozing from a large wound in his head. Mrs. Bergen's skull was terribly crushed, having evidently been struck by more than one blow by her infuriated husband. The appearance of the little girl also showed a number of savage blows had been rained upon the top and side of her head. Bergen's throat had been cut with a razor

and the head so severely his head was nearly severed from his body. So he killed his whole family and himself. So the winner here, tough category, very competitive. Well when it comes to being a terrible father, CIS alumni are really, it's a dog fight out there, it really is. Most of the time the kids are the first to be ignored or rejected or beaten or left penniless. So it came down to two people in this category who really showed the drive and ability to

really fuck their kids life up good. First of all here you got Floyd Mayweather. He held his son up in front of a shotgun. You when someone has a shotgun you cover your kid from that you don't hold them in front of you That's the opposite your kidneys to it No shit, man. So Marty Bergen killed his kids But as much as this is an awful fate this happened pre penicillin pre polio vaccine These kids could have died from the Spanish flu or fighting Hitler or snake

bite. Anything. We don't know what kind of future they would have had, but due to Floyd Mayweather seniors, complete disregard for the happiness, wellbeing and safety of his son. He produced another criminal athlete worthy of a CIS episode, truly giving back to the ecosystem and earning the scummy of worst father of the year. Congratulations Floyd. You brought it. You did it.

That's a tough competition. Next up is a category I don't like very much because it scares me. Most likely to find and kill me for compiling this shit about them. Yeah. Okay. Ricardo Mayorga, number one. Ricardo Mayorga, sorry I said that backwards. That's the dyslexic version of Ricardo Mayorga.

He's alive. Guaranteeing he won't find us. Yeah, that'll work. He's alive and now suckling at the teat of a totalitarian government. So I assume if I so much cross the border into Tijuana. I'll be taken by a Nicaraguan hit squad Down to that country and I worry about it Kibani savage he almost was killed by the government, but he's had his death penalty commuted So he's alive for the foreseeable future and as we know most of his murders came when he was already in jail

So bars can't contain the murderous desires of this champion of violence. No one is safe at any time, even women and children. He'd kill me without giving it a second thought. He's coming for Brandy to be honest. I'd say put barbecue sauce on that little bitch. Rico Suave Rodriguez. He's not very angry, but he is drunk and an awful driver, so it's possible that he could kill me without even knowing who I am or why he's doing it.

He could just be an accident. He's totally on accident. Accidental revenge is a possibility here. He could be anywhere. Next up, Everson Griffin. He's unbalanced, he's possibly on drugs, and he has an ear open to crime suggestions from any deity that may speak to him. That's dangerous.

His potential for crazy knows no bounds. Everyone keep an eye out for a giant shirtless man creeping around my bushes if you could please. Thank you. Um, next up Jared Haney or Hayne I can't remember the rugby guy who got accused of a bunch of rapes and now they're he's getting them cleared in court. I don't know what's going on. He's the dark horse of this category.

He really is. You might be mad. Well, off the field, no, you just you wouldn't think he would even notice. I mean, he lives in a foreign country, you know, all that off the field. Most of his alleged violence is directed towards women and the courts keep letting him slip by. This could cause him to believe he's above the law and may embolden him to seek revenge on all who have wronged him.

So it's possible. Now the winner here, okay, Everson Griffin was a front runner, especially because he seems to take orders from the clouds and that's dangerous. Not good. Ricardo Mayorga has capabilities to drone bomb my home and no one is safe as long as Rico and cars and alcohol all exist at the same time but the real threat here is it's Kibane Savage let's be realistic here oh god christ he's he's from Philly too I mean his killer people that he

knows are two hours from my house this is dangerous he's killed people for smaller slights than having then what we did and having two complete episodes making fun of both him his sisters and his mother. Fuck your mother. I just hope that if he fire bombs my house that Everson Griffin is hiding shirtless in the bushes so I won't have to go down alone. That's all I'm saying.

Okay and then finally the last category of the of the entire show. This is the big one everybody. This is the one that everybody this is the one that everybody works their whole career for they go to college they get drafted yeah they're working they're not working toward a Hall of Fame bus they're working towards scumbag of the year everybody. Brought to you by Pepsi Coke Dr. Scholl's and Diet Max moisturizers. It's the diet mug root beer scumbag of the year award. Taco bell, Shasta, what a burger in and out.

That is a little inside joke from a documentary we love. Yeah. Okay. So a scumbag of the year here. This is again, not just what you did, but how you did it. That's the thing. A complete disregard for decency and general human nature, even having a little bit of Ilan in the whole thing. You have to have a little bit of a flair

to it, you know? Now, a note on this, side note, Eddie Johnson is not eligible for this because he has already won scumbag of the year once for the same thing. So he cannot win it again. The very first year. Can't win it again. Yeah, he was the inaugural scumbag of the year once for the same thing. So he cannot win again. The very first year. Can't win again. Yeah, he was the inaugural scumbag of the year, which was tough. First up, Roshan Jones. Okay, he beat women, he beat pregnant women,

but he really shot himself to the top of this year's pure scum list here, due to his alleged double murder at a laundromat, and I say alleged because he's still awaiting trial, but it looks pretty bad. Where among the people he killed was a grandmother who worked there. That's very nice.

The owner? Yes. Did the machine not give him his change back when he tried to get some fucking all temperature out of there? What happened? Possibly. It just dangled down.

We'll never know. Your brick of sun detergent. What are you having? But the way the state will be holding its own little scumbag of the year party for him when they try him with the death penalty on the table. So you never know. He's got another award show he's gotta be pretty nervous

about. 12 years. Next up, Roshan Jones. Remember there was Roshan and Roshan in the same episode and Roshan, he is another one that is actually awaiting trial I believe at this point. This may be the most callous and psychopathic of all our nominees really. He was on the University of Miami football team where he murdered a teammate, then mourned with the team, took the pictures around the jersey of him and all that kind of shit took pics and

Generally played the role of grief stricken friend until everybody found out that it was actually him who allegedly did this murdering Yeah fucking diabolical. That's diabolical like I mean you have to be a part of it, right? But that's like some serial killer shit to be able to do that and then just to be like Oh it off is crazy pose and like yo, what's up with your Jersey on next to them? That's fucking insane, dude Next up Gary Brabham Yeah, his dad was his dad was a sir. He had it all he had it all but the jury kids lies Problem is during his court trial the jury was shown a 2012 video of his second victim Telling the police officer that Brabham had quote touched inside her vagina as he says she sat on his lap wearing shorts as he drove a car yeah

after one of the five separate incidents between 2003 and 2007 when the girl was between the ages of six and ten She recalled sobbing after Brabham rubbed his hands on her vagina as she sat on a toy chest Oh, I want to run this guy over with his own car A friend of the family told the media quote. He was what psychologists would call a groomer He would set the scene up. He would groom the target into a false sense of safety you fucking monster Gross next up Kibane Savage If he was seen up, he would groom the target into a false sense of safety. You fucking monster. Gross. Gross. Next up, Kabani Savage.

Yeah? I mean, God, he's up there, man. He sells drugs in mass quantities, murders enemies and friends alike, laughed about burning small children to death, and said he just wished he could kill more. He has no remorse, no feelings, and will stop at nothing to kill anyone he can while bragging about how in charge he is. Yeah, so, Kibani, there's no limit to it. He has no moral compass, there's nothing. Next up, Brian McGee, our opener of the 2024 year here.

He was a wrestler, if you remember, that had some serious murdering here. He, apparently, the victim had no idea what was coming. I'll read from the report here. Mrs. McGahey held the phone up to Mr. McGee and said something to the effect of here there's someone who wants to talk to you. She was in fact talking to Mr. McGee's wife and was concerned for his safety. Mr. McGee began attacking Mrs. McGahey without saying a word.

He walked up to Mrs. McGahey and he immediately attacked her with a knife. A search warrant said that McGee walked up to her apartment and appeared to punch her in the stomach. She fell to the ground screaming and witnesses ran to call help. When the knife broke broke he went back to grab another knife and continue it. Wow. When the witnesses returned she was on the sidewalk with a knife sticking from her stomach dead at the scene. Then, gets

a little worse somehow, here from a Facebook post, seemingly a short time after he killed her at 8 46 p.m He changed his profile on Facebook to it looks to be an arm or perhaps an ankle with an oozing and bloody gash Disturbing okay, and finally Brian Phelps Yeah, he was trusted with people's kids because of all his accolades he seemed safe He wasn't lurking in a van behind a Chuck E Cheese He was an Olympian and a legend and he molested a fuckload of kids. You're paying to have your children touched Disgusting here. Now. This is a tough one. This is the toughest call scum bag of the year here

We debated this for a multi-minute period. It took a long time, just at least seven, eight minutes on this one. Now, the problem is the two kid diddlers stole votes from each other, much like two people from the same movie being up for best supporting actress. You know what I mean? They cancel each other out. Cancel each other out, that's the problem.

So the nuances, the problem here also, the nuances of human language fell kind of on deaf ears, Roshan and Roshan, that was completely lost on a panel of dogs. They didn't understand the difference here. Thus giving neither man a real fair shake at this award, honestly here. Brian McGee had the appropriate flair to his crime.

He did it in front of people, outdoors, you know what I mean? He was showing the world what he was made of, you know what I'm saying? That's something. But it lacks staying power, really. It's just one incident, you know what I mean? And multi-crime stick-to-it-ness is needed

to get this prestigious award. You really have to be a scumbag here. So let's see who we got here. It's Kebani Savage, everybody. Oh yeah, yeah. It's the winner. As many- The bad guy. Yeah, as winner. It's a bad guy.

Yeah, as many scumbags as we've come through on this show, we've come across just hundreds of them. No one has shown the pure raw talent to actually burn children alive. And suggesting barbecue sauce. Yeah, and that's part of it. That's the extra flair that gets in the award. You know what I'm saying? It's not, you didn't go into court and cry afterwards and say sorry and you shouldn't

have done it. He said, fuck them kids, fuck them. That's what he said. So not to mention killing lifelong friends because they might snitch, not because they did snitch because it's possible. He's heartless, he's arrogant, he cares for no one but himself. He is simply the scumbag of the year, folks. And there you go. There is your scummy awards for the year of our Lord 2024. There it is. So hope you enjoyed

the scum. He's a lot of shockers on here, obviously a lot of, a lot of upsets, I mean, we did it all this year, it's something. They're gonna write about it in Vanity Fair tomorrow, I'm sure. Well yeah, you can check all the articles, you really wanna see what people were wearing too. I mean, a lot of these guys were wearing stripes, so that's gonna clash and compete with each other.

Some in orange, some in orange, some in blue, some in white. We'll see, you know what I mean? Yeah, it's really, what's Brandi gonna wear? That's the question. What's she gonna wear? What's she gonna put on? Is it a what she got laid out for laid out for us? So I'm excited for that just a skirt. So anyway, there you go everybody
