Our good buddy Sweet Lou over at The Ultimate Sports Challenge Network just sent along this "no-holds barred" interview with Kevin Gogan, the dude who (back in 1998) SI deemed -- with apologies to Ric Flair -- the dirtiest player in the game. Let's just say that Gogan, who is a helluva storyteller, definitely calls 'em like he sees 'em. From Tyson, to T.O., to Suge Knight, to Michael "who snorted more blow than Tony Montana" Irvin, to Ryan "If that fucker got his head knocked off, I wouldn't have gave a shit, 'cause he was just an ass" Leaf, to Randy "I couldn't afford that much weed" Moss ... Gogan touches on a whole host of folks and issues. For fans of the NFL, most definitely worth a listen. Thanks, Lou.
Sorry, you guys got nothing on Australian Rugby leaguer John Hopoate.
Probably another reason that Cozmo played the "RA RA" Game not League.

Penzoil needs to sign Hopoate up to do some advertising.

Hopoate link is fixed. Great stuff, Horseshoe. My bad.

The best quote
In response to suggestions from Hopoate's counsel, Bernard Gross QC, that his client had been administering "a wedgie", Jones said: "It was in the anal area. I think I know the difference between a wedgie and someone putting their fingers up my bum."
