Dumbest/Least Well Rounded Athletes

Bubba Baker (old Lion DE gave himself a tattoo using a coat hanger-branded it into his arm among other bright moves things.)

Edwin Simmons-the backyard incident stands out. I met him and was not impressed at all.

ron LeFlore-baseball player, ex-convict. Stated on national TV when asked about his rpegame routine (while giggling), "I prefer sex myself." Funny but not too bright.

Lastings Milledge-Mets such a dumba## that he got himslef traded to the nationals for making a gangster rap album with completely inappropriate lyrics, among other things. this on top of a sex scandal he had in HS with an underage female. Lord knows what the future will bring for him..

Larry Bird- "Moses Malone eats Sh&^" was the quote on national TV, if my memory is correct. There was a reason for the nickname, "The Hick from French Lick." Pretty successful coach and GM, though, must not be totally clueless.

Mickey Rivers-too many too mention.
 
" Mike Tyson is surprisingly intelligent. But then so was Hannibal Lecter.

Seriously, dude is pretty articulate (outside of his speech impediment), is a pretty decent boxing historian, and has read tons of literature, but he is crazy as a shithouse rat. "

Tyson is a lot of things. Intellingent is not one of them. Using big words incorrectly does not make you intelligent. There's some beauties in this you tube clip of funny Tyson quotes: (some pretty profane language in here)
Tyson the intellectual
 
Dexter Manley came to speak to my HS about staying off drugs. This is about 1992. He actually pointed to a kid and called him a "nucka-hea".. at least that's what I could make out.
 
After last week, we might have to give our own RT at leats an honorable mention.

Doesn't completely make the list yet, because there is still time and opportunity for him to mend his ways.
