Who would you guys consider the biggest disappointment's in sports at the moment?
In the NBA, I'd say its definitely Kwame Brown. He was drafted number one, and not only never lived up to expectations, but grew worse as his career went on. I use the word "went" because I could only assume his career is over at this point.
In football, its a toss-up between Maurice Clarett and Marcus (not Michael) Vick. Both players had more than enough skill to compete in the NFL, but blew it with off the field troubles, and ignorance.
notable mentions:
Mike Williams (former USC WR)
Chris Henry
Andres Bargnani
Dejuan Wagner
Mateen Cleaves (Next Magic Johnson? )
The New York Knicks organization
Kyle Boller (RAVENS 4 LIFE)
Joey Harrington
David Carr
