Trivia Mafia’s resident Archie expert is here to debrief on the ins and outs of Archie adaptations.

For every one of these athletes of iron, though, there are hundreds of others who got the briefest taste of professional sports glory and never got to drink from the cup again. Those stories don't get told nearly as often, but they're probably a lot more relatable to the real-life experiences of us working stiffs. With that in mind, I'd like to take a look into the short-lived careers of three players who can truthfully tell folks that they were in the NBA, and then hope that there aren't a lot of follow-up questions.
