Top Ten Chicago Athletes Who Belong on Reality TV

It seems like anyone can get a reality television show these days.

So it's only natural that a Chicago athlete would eventually make their way onto the scene. We have some of the craziest and most unique individuals in sports to choose from.

Here are the Top Ten we'd like to see.




10. Ronnie Woo Woo


I picture this show as something along the lines of 'The Flavor of Love'.

Get a room full of over served female bleacher bums together in a mansion and let them duke it out for the rights to Woo Woos'heart


9. Bears Offensive Line

A collection of massive human beings downing Jack Daniels and shooting guns with the FBI is definitely something I might be interested in.


8. Lou Pinella

'Getting Old with Lou Pinella' is actually more of an educational program for senior citizens than it is reality television.

Nursing homes nationwide tune in as Lou teaches how to play dumb when asked confusing questions and later on, will cover how to stare off in the distance like you have no idea what's going on.


7. Devin Hester

A take on Paris Hilton and Nicole Ritchie's show the 'Simple Life', Devin has to travel the country working as a molecular biologist, NASA engineer, balistics expert and more.

Soon after, Devin's trademark phrase from the show, "Huh?" gets added to Webster's Dictionary along side "Doh!".


6. Derrick Rose

Simply put, the TTCS crew worships Derrick Rose and would most likely watch him cut his lawn if it was on TV.

The next ten years are going to be sweet.


5. Juan Uribe

Uribe looks like he moonlights as a mob boss during the offseason at his home in the Dominican Republic.

The cameras would follow Juan around as he takes batting practice by day and breaks peoples legs by night. He's a whole different kind of crazy.


4. Patrick Kane

This one's more for the teenagers, but picture a Chicago version of the Hills.

Kane struggles to convince his parents that he's mature enough to stay out past ten and throws a tantrum when they won't let him get that new Gucci belt.

Parents just don't understand.


3. Ozzie Guillen

There's really no comparison to what this show would be like and it'd most likely have to be on HBO or Showtime.

Hilarity ensues when Ozzie downs a bottle of Patron and rips on Brian Anderson for an entire episode.



2. Ron Santo

Seeing Santo cry himself to sleep after every Cubs loss would be enough to make me watch.


1. Michael Jordan


Hope you don't mind, but I'm going to use a description of Jordan from our legendary "Top Ten Chicago Athletes We'd Like to Party With" list.

The Man. The Myth. The Legend.

Perhaps nobody outside of Charles Barkley and Charles Oakley truly knows how M. Jeff does it when out for a night on the town. But whispers of Jordan dropping tens of thousands of dollars in Atlantic City and rampant claims of his infidelities have only helped to define his legend.

Wouldn't you want to watch that?

Editor's note: If you would like some insight into what a night is like with Jordan, I suggest you watch this video narrated by Adult Film “Superstar” Kylie Ireland.
