Crime in Sports
October 6, 2026
This week, we look at a basketball player that seemed to have everything that someone could need to be an NBA star. The problem is, he didn't. But he did becaome a criminal, with constant arrests, and even a fake name, once his own name was equivilent to "liar".

Hello, everybody, and welcome back to Crime in Sports. Yay!
Yay, indeed, Jimmie, yay, indeed. My name is James Pietragallo. I'm here with my co-host.
Jimmie Whisman (0:31)
I'm Jimmie Whisman.
James Pietragallo (0:32)
Thank you, folks, so much for joining us again on another just a good time that we like to call Crime in Sports. It's been a lot of fun lately. Hope you enjoyed Verpie Butt and her brutal ways. Jesus Christ.
A chick named Butt having that kind of... You think she was just picked on to the point where she couldn't take it anymore and snapped?
Jimmie Whisman (0:52)
It sounds descriptive, Verpie.
James Pietragallo (0:54)
Yeah, Verpie Butt.
So anyway, that was crazy. Hope you listened to that last week. This week, though, we have a wild story for you. Again, a guy that we've mentioned before in somebody else's story because he was involved. It's Crime in Sports. It's a real meta, Crime in Sports meets Crime in Sports. Like yeah. Yeah.
Jimmie Whisman (1:13)
When they play at the same time, they oftentimes touch each other.
James Pietragallo (1:16)
It's like a movie that's about the making of a movie. That's what it's going on. We'll talk to you all about that. First though...
Jimmie Whisman (1:23)
As two people wrote a book.
James Pietragallo (1:24)
Yeah. First though, head over to shutupandgivememurder.com.
Get all your merchandise, new stuff up all the time. And especially though, get your tickets for Small Town Murder Live shows. We are going to be next week. It's October 16th in San Jose, California. October 17th in Sacramento. So get your tickets right now for those. Those are going to be different stories too. So you can go to both shows and you will see different shows. Also, Terry Town in New York there. That is almost sold out November 13th. It might be sold out by now because there's only a few tickets left. And then Boston the next night, November 14th. That's actually Medford. So you don't even have to mess with the Boston traffic. Look at how we're thinking for you. We're trying to take care of everybody here. So get in there and do that. That's at the Chevalier. It's a very nice theater too. So get in there. Shut up and give me murder.com.
You certainly want Patreon. That we know.
patreon.com/crime in Sports. That is where you get all the bonus material, and there's a lot of it. All you have to be is $5 a month or above. It's a cup of coffee, everybody. Or you can get almost 400 back bonus episodes immediately upon subscription, and then new ones every other week. One Crime in Sports and one Small Town Murder, and you get them all this week for Crime in Sports. We're calling the episode When Pilots Fail, and it's about these small planes around a lot of sporting events that end up crashing into sporting events, and it's happened so many times.
Jimmie Whisman (2:55)
Fails consistently.
James Pietragallo (2:56)
Yeah, this is going to be like the hot air balloon disaster episode. It's a similar type of vibe here.
For Small Town Murder, it's that season. We are going to get into scary movies, and we're going to talk about horror movies and scary movies and thrillers, and our favorites and our least favorites, historically ones and all that kind of good shit. So it's going to be a lot of fun.
patreon.com/crime in Sports is where you get all that, and that's not enough. We said no. Five bucks a month and you think that would be plenty. It's a cup of coffee. We're going to give you all this stuff. No, you also get everything we put out. Crime in Sports, Small Town Murder, and your stupid opinions all ad free with your Patreon as well. You can't beat that, everybody, and you get a shout out at the end of the show too. I'm going to spend some time on that. So it's all we can do, patreon.com/crime in sports, just like the name of the show here. That said, let's do it, everybody.
Jimmie Whisman (3:51)
Let's go.
James Pietragallo (3:52)
Asshole of the week, here he is. He's a guy who really just blew it over and over again.
Some guys have success, and some guys overachieve in sports and then fuck it up. This is a guy who just really blew it. He just blew it. Just fucked it all up. Glendon Alexander.
Jimmie Whisman (4:10)
Now, Glendon.
James Pietragallo (4:12)
Might sound familiar, because we've mentioned him before on this show. And when we get to it, you're going to fucking laugh your ass off at what it was. Glendon Donald Alexander.
