| ESPN 30 for 30: Broke (Posted on 10/2/12 at 12:20 pm)
Returns tonight at 8ET. I'm pretty excited about it. 
quote:
Broke explores the roads to fortune in American sports and eventually, the many detours to bankruptcy. Curt Schilling, Bernie Kosar, Andre Rison and Cliff Floyd are among the athletes who talk openly about the challenges of managing their money. In an era when big contracts don’t necessarily support bigger lifestyles, athletes are often sucked into bad investments, stalked by freeloaders and saddled with medical problems. Eventually, many pro athletes get shocked by harsh economic realities after years of living the high life. A story of the dark side of success, Broke is an allegory for the financial woes haunting economies and individuals all over the world.

Sports Today was interviewing an ex Alabama football player who was talking about his struggles. I can't remember his name, but it was pretty bad listening to some of the hardships these guys have to overcome when they are broke and living in an 80 year old body when they retire in their mid 30s.

This talks about drug addiction and extensive medical bills that are a burden on these guys lives as well....I think.
