has to be the winner... .cause the OP definitely said QUICKEST


RG3 went from rookie of the year at the end of the year to career ending injury (basically since he's a bum now) in the very next game :wow:

Ronda, the system rg3 had his first year covered up his flaws, once he got I hurt and the league caught on to that college offense he fell off quick and his flaws showed.

Ronda is a mma fighter that's no team, one on one and she was healthy and got destroyed by Holly holms.

Her flaws showed to the world, I would take boxing and golf as more of a fall off sport since it's just you alone out there with no help. Wouldn't add in any team sport.

Ronda had movies, TV shows, mad athletes were praising her, she was above criticism and she had a bad attitude and the media still rode for her.

She never shook her opponents hand and Joe Rogan made jokes about it, that's the privilege she had.

Lance Stevenson- He was that dude next to PG on the Pacers. Blowing in LeBron's ear had him all over the media outlets plus giving the Heat headaches in that ECF series. Things haven't been the same for him since he left Indy:francis:

I agree with Tiger, Hernandez, and Lance Armstrong, but I wouldn't want to be Hernandez nor Lance


But what about Bo?

within the last 5 years or so... Andrew Bynum


Lakers fans lost. touted dude as a superstar etc and all this shyt

Bynum is a joke and didn't even last past 25 in the league :dead: what a bust

Bygawd would be the best center in the league if it weren't for the injuries :ufdup:

Everyone you guys have mentioned have accomplished more than you and your father and his father have combined. Stay focused.
While I agree with you and I am one to say exactly what you just said in some of these threads. I usually point this out when I feel people are taking personal shots at these athletes whom they know nothing about on a personal level. Things like calling LeBron a b!tch or Melo fat and so on.

But I don't see this thread being personal. But in this case they are not attacking these athletes personally or their looks or them in person or their families .


Families, people , Nations, countries team Fall From Grace all the time and just as we (fans) care enough to pay for them to be famous by showing interest in what they do we should also be able to criticize their Fall From Grace as long as it's not on a personal level
