This week, we start a series on one of the most colorful characters in sports history. A hard drinking brawler, who knew nothing but success in baseball. We start this tale, with Billy's dad, taking off, while he was a baby. We delve into his upbringing, just hanging around his aunt's brothel, or getting into constant fights, but at the same time, discovering baseball as a way to get out of his rough neighborhood, dead jobs that awaited him. Did we mention fighting? Because he fights a LOT!
Have your mom tell you how great her butt is, hang around at your aunt's brothel, and fight anyone who may have a sideways word for you with Billy Martin - Part 1!!
Check us out, every Tuesday!
We will continue to bring you the biggest idiots in sports history!

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
