We start Part 9 with one of the best locker room meltdowns of all time by one of the biggest NFL busts of all time..Ryan Leaf. 

"Knock it off"

OK forget that business about one of the biggest busts of all time...he WAS the biggest bust of all time.  That's even taking Jamarcus Russel into account.  The fact is on paper Ryan Leaf was supposed to be a slam dunk NFL QB.  That did not work out.  Ryan did not have fun.

"Leonard Marshall ruins Joe Montana for life"

One of the most savage hits I have ever seen.  They say today's athletes are bigger, faster and stronger but this hit rivals any hit from the past few years.  The Giants/49ers rivalry was great back then.

"Anytime Barry Sanders touched the ball EVER"

"This past Offseason for Rob Gronkowski"

That is how you do downtime.  No one knows how to shut down the professionalism like one Rob Gronkowski.  NO ONE.  I have a new item for my bucket list and that is a one week summer road trip with Rob Gronkowski.  Without that my life will be incomplete.  It's Gronk's world...we are just living in it.

"The Hit that probably ended Brett Favre's career"

There is nothing like watching one of your favorite athletes of all time hang on too long.  I had to watch Michael Jordan do it, I had to watch Derek Jeter do it and I had to watch Brett Favre do it.  In Brett's final season not only was he ineffective but he got hit a lot.  This hit may have been the last straw for him.

 

I will continue this series right up until kickoff of Super Bowl 50.  If you have any suggestions leave them here or call the Ethan and Lou show at 203-775-9595 weekday mornings between 5:30-10am.
