Bart Scott: What's a Goon to a Goblin?

Born in Detroit, Michigan, Bart Scott overcame long odds to star at Southern Illinois University. Scott was not selected in the 2002 NFL Draft and eventually signed with the Baltimore Ravens, quickly becoming a special teams standout. Following a Ray Lewis injury in 2005, Scott saw his playing time and production increase, a prelude to the best season in his career the following year. In 2006, Scott started every game for the Ravens, finishing with a career-high 145 tackles, 9.5 sacks and two interceptions en route to a Pro Bowl appearance. From 2009 through 2012, Scott played for the New York Jets, eventually teaming with Miami Dolphins legend, Jason Taylor, in 2010. Upon his retirement from football, Scott began a successful media career, including a two-year stint on The NFL Today on CBS as well as his current role as a mid-day host on ESPN New York radio. In this episode, Bart becomes the first person with no Miami Dolphins affiliation to dive in The Fish Tank. He reveals what he believes to be the Dolphins secret weapon, shares a behind-the-scenes look at how the 2008 Baltimore Ravens become the most successful defenders of Miami's Wildcat offense but also remembers with great disdain what it felt like to lose to the 0-13 Dolphins in 2007. Finally, Bart gives OJ and Seth the real story behind his famous "Can't Wait" moment.
