A mugshot of the gray-bearded Dykstra, once known as "Nails" for his all-out playing style, was obtained by TMZ and shows the former New York Mets centerfielder sporting a ZZ Top starter face.
It bears little resemblance to the "Dude" of old.
Dykstra, who was a key member of the the Mets 1986 World Series championship team, is in jail for a full roster of crimes — including bankruptcy fraud, grand theft auto and a couple of lewd Craigslist incidents.
The self-taught financial investor made a fortune while his stock-picking website became popular and his financial advice magazine, the Players Club, had investment advice exclusively for pro athletes to help them with money management.
Dykstra's jet-setting lifestyle fell apart during the housing crash a few years ago.
The 49-year-old Dykstra was facing 20 more years in prison last December but prosecutors recommended 2 1/2 years — for three felony counts of money laundering, bankruptcy fraud and concealing assets — on top of the three years he is already serving for grand theft auto.
one of the biggest losers there is
ReplyDeletepost your name,wussy
DeleteKids, this is what you become after taking more than a few beanballs to the head while using steroids. I'm surprised he's even able to speak after that history. Shame...
ReplyDeleteNot a loser, just made the wrong choices. There is not a one of us that have not taken a short-cut or two in life...he just got caught.
ReplyDeleteSpeak for yourself. Not once have I stepped so over the line to get even close to this kind of trouble. Sorry, but he is a loser and so must be you.
DeleteThe ONLY people that delight in calling other folks losers are the REAL losers in this life, amigo. Get over yourself and thank God that you haven't been nailed for sll the STUPID things you've pulled.
DeleteI bet you will not call Lenny a loser to his face! I f he is a loser you are a big PUSSY LIVE WITH THAT ASSCLOW!
DeleteAre you sure he wasn't working for Goldman Sachs?
ReplyDeleteNo if he worked for those F**ksticks, he'd get away with it
DeleteI have seen some bad times, some really bad times but stepping over that line was never even an option. I personally think that he got off pretty lightly. I feel like anyone besides a former pro athlete would have received a much stiffer sentence.
ReplyDeleteI saw douchebag universes collide the other day on ESPN Classic. A young Lenny Dykstra being interviewed by a younger and even douchier looking Jim Rome. Each of them in full douche mode.
