1. Agassi admitting crystal meth use..
dude, you own a middle school..
what kind of example is that to your students?
take crystal meth and you can be a millionaire?
you should not have told us that secret..
that, or stop with the whole school thing..
you cant have both cakes..

2. Tiger woods..
if you want lots of girls with bee stings on their crotch..
then be a free spirit..
and dont get married!

3. Lance armstrong deserting his kids,
So he could kiss all the pretty girls..
you constantly preach about not smoking anf fighting cancer..
maybe you should preach about not running away from responsibility..

4. Tom brady leaving a pregnant bridget monahue..
dumping a girl when she is pregnant is pretty awful..

5. A_rod..
leaving his wife and kids for freakin madonna!?!?
this is a woman who told david letterman she pees in the shower....
Dude, you are going through major mid life crisis..


I'll take this. Don't know for sure how many I will put up but we'll see where it goes.

#1. The number one, numero uno has to be Tiger. He was the class act of the Golfing world. His wife was not a **** she was a living dream. He had every Man's dream all in one huge bundle and he screwed it away. And then to blame it on a disease, yea right? what's it called, ****-I-****?

#2. OJ. Do I really need to elaborate this one? OJ was hero to millions. He had it all. So what if one trashy wife did him wrong. With his rep and money he could have had a whole harem if he wanted. And let's face it, there are millions that still believe he got away with murder, but then only to go to prison for stealing?

#3. Big Ben. I am a die hard Steelers fan and IMO Ben is a top five QB, (not looking for a TD on this, like I said, IMO). I felt bad for the man when that old hag out west accused him of rape. But then to subject yourself to another case, Come on man where is your brain in the head of your ****? WTF were you thinking? I can no longer place him on a hero mantle.

#4. LT and the statutory rape charge. Come on LT, what he hell you doing out there solicting **** crap anyway.


Agassi was more of a hero, in my eyes
Agassi always knew the right things to say.. And came across as cool and likeable
Tiger? I always thought he came across as dorky. But then again, he plays golf, so I guess it kind of fits.
Plus, what agassi did. Its basically like the principal at your elementary school, getting busted for smoking crack. Its really really classless, and puts a bad taste in your mouth

Lance Armstrong vs OJ
Armstrong was like a messiah
He comes back from his death bed, and goes on to destroy the record, with 7 tour wins
All the time, being a role model and giving hope for cancer fighters
When he left his kids.. He went from ultimate hero status, (OJ never got to ultimate hero status, he's character was always in question), to Lance becoming a piece of ****

Big Ben has a drinking problem, vs tom brady
Again, Brady goes from ultimate hero to zero.. Big Ben is good, but not at Bradys level
I expected more from Brady
Ben is just a F up that got lucky!

Crack smokin LT vs A-rod
LT ALWAYS had a thing for prostitutes
LT was ALWAYS a bad person
Im just shocked he does spend his life in prison more


I liked Agassi back in the day, but I never placed Tennis stars that high on my list. I did not care enough for the sport to worry about, kind of like soccer. I did not even know Agassi used meth until this TD. The impact was not that strong.

Tiger was the #1 Worlds most marketable athlete. Again, he had it all. He alone inspired more people to take up golf than any predecessor ever. His fall from grace not only shocked the world but he lost millions in endorsements.

Tom Brady has always been the pretty boy of the NFL that everyone outside of the New England area actually despises and not adore. Big Ben was of the working class that was making it big. Brady gets hang nail, he is out for several games. Big Ben gets his nose broke and is back in a couple plays later.

A-Rod's fall from grace had nothing to do with Madonna. His connection to Roids was and remains his legacy and blemish.

Lance Armstrong's pedestal was already unstable with the whole blood doping scandal. I for one was not a big admirer of his to begin with because of some of the interviews and character flaws he had already displayed. If Hitler had been a Cancer survivor would that have made him great?


Solid..
im out of bullets AGAIN ha ha..


See ya on the return. I am sure we will be TDing again in the near future.

Reload your gun and we will try again.

Peace out FN

I think both of you need to do a better job of picking heros.


1. Dale Earnhardt died- Back then, I thought he was invincible.

2. Cro Cop getting knocked out by Gonzaga- How can you let him knock you out with a head kick that you made famous?

3. Tom Glavine- Went to the Mets, still haven't 100% forgiven him.

4. Jay Cutler- Was my favorite QB then pitched a fit and wound up getting traded to the Bears.

Also, Glavine signed with the team that would give him a contract. The Braves turned their back on him at that point in his career. Now while I had rather seen him retire than don a Mets uni, I understand his desire to still pitch.

NFL network has revealed that LT did drugs during his playing days plus lots of other bad behaviors that woudl normaly get you cut from a Parcells coached team. Parcells only put with him casue he could sack the QB, alot.

Agree , but back then we did not have twitter and all the immediate media moguls telling everyone right to the second what someone did or didn't do. Teams pretty much kept their dirty laundry in their own washroom. I am sure there are thousands of heroes that had major character flaws that met that mold as well.
