Former Kansas City Chiefs WR Andre Rison will be featured in an ESPN documentary about athletes who have gone broke. This is part of Volume 2 of ESPN's 30 For 30 series, which is set for an October release. The movie will make it's debut at the Tribeca Film Festival next month. Here's the release on the documentary:

According to a 2009 Sports Illustrated article, 60 percent of NBA players are broke within five years of retirement. For 78 percent of NFL players, it takes only three years. Sucked into bad investments, stalked by freeloaders, saddled with medical problems, and naturally prone to showing off, most pro athletes get shocked by harsh economic realities after years of living the high life. Drawing surprisingly vulnerable confessions from retired stars like Jamal Mashburn, Bernie Kosar, and Andre Rison, as well as Marvin Miller, the former executive director of the MLB Players Association, this fascinating documentary digs into the psychology of men whose competitive nature carries them to victory on the field and ruin off it.

TFF Alum Billy Corben (Cocaine Cowboys) paints a complex picture of the many forces that drain athletes' bank accounts, placing some of the blame on the culture at large while still holding these giants accountable for their own hubris. A story of the dark side of success, Broke is an allegory for the financial woes haunting economies and individuals all over the world.

Yesterday I posted one of my favorite sports highlights, the Steve Bono 76-yard run. Really, though, I should have posted the video of Andre Rison catching that last-second pass against the Raiders on Monday Night Football, which might be my favorite Chiefs memory.
