The stories about Sidd are tGOATs.
Even though Sports Illustrated was a no-nonsense publication lending the story a significant amount of credit, the claims are so ridiculous that I have a hard time imagining someone truly falling for it.

The best were the photos of Dykstra and Hernandez in the magazine.
