I couldn't be more excited for tonight's Bad Boys documentary on ESPN, chronicling the Detroit Pistons teams of the late '80s and early '90s. In anticipation of the show, I grabbed some of SI's best Bad Boys photos for the gallery above. I also recommend reading this 1990 SI profile of King Bad Boy Bill Laimbeer, who many thought didn't have the ability to play in the NBA:

"Laimbeer is one of the very few athletes who has managed to flunk out of Notre Dame. (He studied his way back in.) He was so insignificant in the 1979 NBA draft that he was picked 65th, a "—— buffoon," says one former pro coach. Moreover, when he returned from a forced expatriate year playing European ball (long before out-of-country hoops was cool) he was still considered the worst of all the 49 players at the 1980 Olympic trials -- even though "our teams always won all the scrimmages," according to a back-then colleague named Isiah Thomas. Finally, having made it to the pros, or rather to the Cleveland Cadavaliers, Laimbeer was unwanted even by that ignoble organization and was bartered away nine minutes before the trading deadline, on Feb. 16, 1982."

Only the Cubs Would Mess This Up

The Cubs invited a 100-year-old fan to join the first-pitch ceremonies for a celebration of the 100th anniversary of Wrigley Field. The man arrived 15 minutes late and was told by a team official that he couldn’t take part in the ceremonies because of his tardiness.
