Cocaine In My Shoes, Needles In My Veins - Steve "Mental Case" Durbano - Part 2
This week, we finish up this wild story with Steve, getting back into the NHL, only to barely play, and end up unemployed. He fills in this employment gap by going down to Bolivia, and trying to smuggle cocaine into Canada, with a wild & fun excuse. He does his prison time, only to get back into drugs, and end up in more trouble, including running an "escort service" that definitely wasn't legal. All of this, and his sad, pitiful ending!
Keep telling NHL teams that you're ready to stop getting in trouble, tell a judge that you didn't know there was a lot of cocaine, in your shoes, and destroy your body with drugs with Steve "Mental Case" Durbano - Part 2!!
Check us out, every Tuesday!
We will continue to bring you the biggest idiots in sports history!!

Is CIS on a break?
I was wondering what is going on as well. The episode starts by saying this episode is 499, and then clearly says NEXT week is episode 500 and to guess who it is. Maybe they meant to say in 2 weeks but I would have thought they would have been specific if skipping a week on purpose
When Durbano’s Pgh Penguin teammate “Battleship” Kelly got into a fight in a home game, the organist would play “Anchors Aweigh.”
NHL players were at or near the top of pro sports salaries in the mid 70s when Durbano played for the Penguins. I was a teenager in Pgh when, before the 74-75 season Bic Hadfield came from the NY Rangers in a trade and he made more money (a whopping $175,000/yr) than anyone on the Steelers (who won their first Super Bowl that year) or the Pirates (where Willie Stargell still hitting 40+ HR every year). Caused quite the stir.
Sorry, Vic Hadfield, a bona fide NHL star at that time.
1:01:00 You need to have a come to God moment when Dudley-do-right and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police 🐴 bust you for bootlegging Cocaine
On the Japan drugs thing there was a wrestler a few years ago got a lifetime ban for getting caught with a weed vape
Your liver performs “hepatic” functions, anything Hepatitis is liver related.
Hockey players love drugs they just don’t get caught that often because the league protects players instead of humiliating like the nfl
Antonio brown final answer
Let’s get Gerry a job!
Can I complain that Jimmy said my name correctly twice?!? Hahaha
Maybe Gervonta Davis
Antonio Brown
This is why we need to use the metric system.
It is strange in the USA depending on the statistics around 25% of people have a drug ( including alcohol ) problem. In any profession that is 1 in 4 people. In sports it would seem to be more since the $ is there and the fame.
Antonio Brown next????
His gf saying he has his bad times during the last full moon made me think of this guy as "the cocaine werewolf" lmaoooooo
I would love if crime and sports hit netflix.As well fellas, did you get a new mic set up here?I'm loving it keep it up
I hope CIS hit Netflix as well.....
Adam pacman jones?!?
They have already done him. At least in a bonus episode. I think it could be Antonio Brown.
A quarter pound is 112 grams P.S I don't do drugs 😉 love your work guys, keep it up
Aussie know about grams that’s forsure, this big ass dude came outta no where picked me up and said “Mate I’m neva Fackin leavin, 80 dollar grams!!!!” We were at some ski place in BC canada
You guys are out of pocket about his cigarettes in prison. Funny AF!
Good luck, Garry 🤞🍀 I'm rootin' for ya!! I just landed a job after almost 7 months of being unemployed 🙏 🥳 🎉 🎊 👍 💰 (and probably 200 applications 🙄 )......... It's tough it there, but YOU GOT THIS!! 💪
Hepatitis always affects the liver
Durham Bulls? In Bull Durham?
Any updates on the cost of cocaine in Japan?
Is it just me, or do they not do the characters as often anymore?
The Canadian snowboarder? Or A. B
Yaaaaaayyy!!
AB or Pac-Man Jones
I think Pac but AB great guess too
Antonio Brown. Gotta be
25% of guys in the NHL who dabbled with weed or coke from time to time back then? Sounds like a very reasonable number to me!
Can’t wait for more cyclists
I think it's gonna be Antonio Brown for episode 500 haha
Oh yeah, as a hockey player, we love our weed 😅
I want it to be AB but I know it would be premature since he’s got a lot of fucking up left in him and a trial to go through
The math episode!
Lenny Dykstra?
You would think after the stroke he’d quit the cocaine? But apparently not…
These episodes were I've never heard of the guy they're covering are extra fun!!!!!
Wooooooooooooooooo
Here we go!!!
