Washed-Up Player Game

[D-Rose]

This is something me and my friends started doin a few years back. Basically u just name one washed up player from any sport and try to out-do each other.

I'll start it off like this...what'chall know about WAYMAN TISDALE?

 

[Hoosier]

Deion Sanders

 

[D-Rose]

Prime Time is still performing, but at least u responded.

Watch'all know about real ass scrubs like Benoit Benjamin, Jon Konkac, and Lawrence Phillips?

 

[Hoosier]

Isn't Washed-Up someone still playing that has no value or is not good as they once were?

 

[techn9nehq]

yeah you gotta set the ground rules for this.....because we could sit here all day and come up with tons of hasbeens who aren't playing anymore....

Jerome Walton
Toni Kukoc
Acie Earl

But for current players who are washed up and need to move on.......

Benito Santiago

 

[D.I.R.B]

???

Yea, there need to be some rules to this. Do you mean people who don't even play anymore?

Toni Kukoc is still playin with the Bucs.

Deion Sanders does not fit into this category. He had an amazing career, and everyone knows that. He ain't as great as he used to be, but he's still productive to an extent (IMO).

Lawrence Philips was a good one, what about Sam Cooke, wasnt he taken ahead of Jordan in the draft and was a fat bust..

last year I would have said Warren Sapp.. But thats not the case anymore............. I'm going to have to go with Deion Sanders

Fred Mitchell

 

[Hoosier]

Dikembe Mutumbo

 

[L Mac-a-docious]

what about Sam Cooke, wasnt he taken ahead of Jordan in the draft and was a fat bust..

sam cooke sung AND played basketball? 20 years after he died? no way! nah, im just playing, ur thinkin of sam bowie.

 

[DubbC415]

oh yeah, and Kevin Willis.

 

[D-Rose]

Ok, i shoulda done this on my first post.

Just name players that are no longer playing, but when they were they were major busts, overrated, bench warmers, scrubs, etc. The more obscure and forgotten a player is, the better.

Prime Example...Dickey Simpkins



And LOLLL @ the Acie Earl post

 

[Hoosier]

Korleon Young

 

[Lamberto Quintero]

Armando Rios, Shawn Estes, Bobby Bonilla, Greg Vaughn, Jeff George, The Rocket Ismail, james jett, Harvey Williams, Derek Fenner. LOL, i guess i could just put up the Oakland Raiders' roster from the mid 90's.

I know it was said before, but if it's draft pick busts, this takes the cake every time...
1. Sam Bowie, Trail Blazers
No. 2, First Round -- 1984
The LaRue Martin for the NBA's Golden Age. Bowie's selection underscores the cardinal rule behind NBA Draftology: you cannot draft for need. The Trail Blazers, flush with Jim Paxson and Clyde Drexler on the wings, needed a center and passed on drafting Michael Jordan, Charles Barkley and John Stockton. Available pivot men Sam Perkins, Mel Turpin, Kevin Willis and Michael Cage would even have been better selections then the oft-injured Bowie.
