This week, we explore the life of a woman, who had a whole persona, built on lies. She won the Boston Marathon... but did she really? Is she a sick person, who can't help but lie, or a persecuted person, who never had her true accomplishments recognized? Either way, a life of crime is the result, including some fraud, and participation in an "all woman cocaine ring". After disappearing from the public eye, does she ever resurface? Come out of nowhere to win a marathon, be a part of an "all woman cocaine ring", and lie about just about everything with Rosie Ruiz!!   Check us out, every Tuesday!   !We will continue to bring you the biggest idiots in sports history!!    Hosted by James Pietragallo & Jimmie Whisman    Donate at... patreon.com/crimeinsports or with paypal.com using our email: crimeinsports@gmail.com    Get all the CIS & STM merch at crimeinsports.threadless.com    Go to shutupandgivememurder.com for all things CIS & STM!!    Contact us on... twitter.com/crimeinsports  crimeinsports@gmail.com  facebook.com/Crimeinsports  instagram.com/smalltownmurder

#266 - Running From The Truth - The Amoralness of Rosie Ruiz

True crime

This week, we talk about a man from an upstanding family, blessed with all the physical gifts to allow him to be an NFL star. Only problem is, he can't stop flexing his muscles in the mirror, long enough to accomplish that. Rumors (and suspensions) because of "banned substances" that may have made him into The Hulk. He also drives while on GHB & maybe other drugs, and is a little loose with his fists, around women! 
 Stare at your physique in a mirror, tell everyone that your "hygiene is unbelievable", and go from a future hall of famer, to a "what could have been" in a mere 5 years with David Boston!!

#412 - The Human Air Freshener - David Boston

This week, we check out a seemingly crazy guy, in a VERY crazy sport. This man races motorcycles at almost 200 MPH, and has the scars, steel plates & screws in his body, to prove it! Off the track, he beats up his girlfriend, sending her to jail, too. He also can't stop drinking while driving without a license, and finally begins his apparent next career as a thief, and fraudster! 
 Come from Spain, all the way to Kentucky, follow your mom into the world of motorcycle racing, and do crazier things, in your everyday life than racing a motorcycle with Hector Barbera!!

#411 - Crashing Your Life - Hector Barbera

This week, we find out about a former UFC heavyweight champion, who let it all go downhill. He gained too much weight, did too much cocaine, and got a little full of himself. This lands him on the "Celebrity Rehab" show, but those lessons don't seem to stick. He readily admits to one of the most repulsive, uncaring things we've ever heard anyone do. Plus, he seems to like to drink, before driving, and before fighting cab drivers!




Learn how to fight, so you can stop having to fight, all the time, hit the pinnacle of your profession, right before you throw it all away, and pull what you think is a corpse into the driver's seat, to save you from a DUI with Ricco "Suave" Rodriguez!!

#410 - The Corpse Was Driving - Ricco "Suave" Rodriguez

This week, we find out about a seemingly mild mannered, and upstanding NBA 3 point specialist. He was raised with military precision, and won't allow his emotions to overtake him. Even when he's 9, and his father dies. He does let his emotions take over, at least a couple times, when he's arrested for hitting his wife, in addition to being one of the worst drivers that has ever gotten behind the wheel. Plus, his middle name is one for the books!! 
 Don't shed a tear, as a 9 year old, with a dead dad, tell people that you'e better than Michael Jordan, in the late 80s, and drive your car across several lanes of freeway, while insisting you're not drunk with Dale Ellis!!

#409 - Lousy Driver, Honest Man - Dale Ellis

This week, we tell the wild tale of an NFL player, who couldn't get out of his own way. He did one thing well, and that's impregnating women. Even in the world of sports, his child output numbers are remarkable. Once he's suspended from football, he turns to another business to try to pay all that child support... Being a cocaine kingpin! But that also doesn't work out so well, and here he is, on this show!! 
 Make Shawn Kemp jealous of your virility, tell everyone what a good dad you are, and threaten the lives of a man's family, over a coke deal gone awry with Travis Henry!!
