The Good Life of an Athlete: Darryl Strawberry Bedded Between 1,000 and 5,000 Women
Former Athletes April 29th. 2009, 1:30pm
Besides having one of the sweetest swings in baseball history*, beating cancer, surviving a couple of stints in rehab, and getting getting busted with a prostitute, Darryl Strawberry, as one might expect, was quite the cocksman. Two radio hosts tried to pin him down on a number today. Short answer: Well over 1,000, but less than 5,000. Probably. And never more than three at a time.
Q: How many women did he sleep with?
“I don’t know. More than you should have, just put it like that.€
Q: More than 1,000?
“Oh yeah, of course.€
Q: More than 5,000?
“Oh no, I won’t stretch it that far.€
Q: What is the most women he’s been with at one time? Four?
“No no, I never went down that road…Maybe three.€
Wasn’t asked, but should have been: You and Doc Gooden ever share?
Darryl Strawberry Was A Poor Man’s Wilt Chamberlain (Sports Radio Interviews)
* It really is a damn shame that the internet is virtually scrubbed free of Darryl Strawberry highlights. The MLB nazis make it nearly impossible to find mundane MLB moments, like a Strawberry homer (bonus if Vin Scully was on the call), or what Kevin Maas did in the summer of 1990. Hell, good luck trying to find an Ozzie Smith homer, or diving play by Chris Sabo, or Tony Gwynn effortlessly slapping a single the opposite way.

chamberlain’s #’s are a joke.
350 women a year
x
30 years (his prime – say, 18-48)
is only 12,250 women.
April 29th, 2009 at 1:41 PM
/fixed
Good point though, there’s not many old school baseball highlights on the web. Except for the Kirk Gibson fist pump.
April 29th, 2009 at 1:41 PM
Only down the cul-de-sac then I guess.
April 29th, 2009 at 1:42 PM
wilt must’ve double dipped on multiple occassions. and remember, TBL, he was huge during the cocaine boom.

Orlando media reporting that Howard will be suspended. of course they also reported Billy Donovan took the Kentucky job. so whatever.

Dwight Howard isn’t taking that record from Wilt

irish- do you have confirmation either way? buddy of mine in Orlando said he heard it on the radio.

April 29th, 2009 at 1:49 PM
yeah, i see nothing on howard on google news yet
fine, let’s give howard 400 a year. that’s plenty of double-dipping – averaging over 1 per day. and let’s give him 30 years of laying pipe. (13-43)
still only 12,000.

No wonder I couldn’t find the Bo Jackson throw to home the other day.
April 29th, 2009 at 1:51 PM
TBL -
Why do you assume he stopped having sex at age 43?
/JPQ’d
April 29th, 2009 at 1:55 PM
per ESPN: no decision made yet, but it looks very likely Howard will be suspended.
April 29th, 2009 at 1:55 PM
Yeah, I think Wilt had sex at least one time in the last 15 years of his life (he died at 63). Even us old farts get laid once in a while
/can pass Wilt if I live to be 5,352 years old
April 29th, 2009 at 1:56 PM
fair point … maybe he was still going strong at 43, but not 400-a-year strong. no way. half that, at best.
April 29th, 2009 at 1:59 PM
Wilt Chemberlain slept with a lot of moms
April 29th, 2009 at 2:01 PM
400 a year? You know, one might get tired of sex after 30 years of that pace. 10-15 years tops before a man says “can’t we just, cuddle?”
April 29th, 2009 at 2:01 PM
maybe he was still going strong at 43,
Don’t underestimate the “Conan the Destroyer” ass he got.
April 29th, 2009 at 2:03 PM
when I was a kid, I read Harvey Martin’s autobiography (he played D end for Dallas). He said Too Tall Jones was sleeping with 5 and 6 women a night at cocaine parties and whatnot. He said that the sex parties were unreal, and that Too Tall Jones would want to sleep with EVERY woman at the party. And by sleep with I mean put his penis in.
Wilt’s numbers aren’t that unbelievable(well, they are, but still), especially if he counts every instance. Like if he screws groupie number Z on September 3rd, and then groupie Z again on March 15th, but doesn’t recognize her.
April 29th, 2009 at 2:04 PM
So what I’m saying is that the 400/year is not a good starting point for Wilt.
April 29th, 2009 at 2:04 PM
Wilt does the math for you

dirtheavy-i have had many discussions with Hollywood Henderson. Those Cowboys teams had themselves some very good times.
April 29th, 2009 at 2:06 PM
I just called the NBA front office and they said a decision will be made in 20 minutes
April 29th, 2009 at 2:08 PM
400 in one year is definitely way, way too conservative an estimate. 1,000 is better, and probably more than that. But, it’s really hard to imagine keeping up those numbers for very long.
April 29th, 2009 at 2:08 PM
Take that, TBL!!
/still seems implausible
20,000 times, yes. 20,000 different women?
April 29th, 2009 at 2:09 PM
now that’s a dedicated fan!
April 29th, 2009 at 2:09 PM
yeah, Dallas in the 70’s was apparently quite a sexy place to be. Skanky chicks love a winner.
April 29th, 2009 at 2:10 PM
1000 in a year?
no shot. if he takes one day off, he needs to bed six the next. you think he didn’t take one day off the entire year?
April 29th, 2009 at 2:12 PM
@sparty & dirtheavy: All athletes and celebrities have this available to them. I knew a lot of Bills and Sabres in Buffalo and have first hand accounts of pretty unbelievable things.
One story: a hockey player (name withheld) was celebrating his birthday in a bar by asking random girls if they wanted to blow him in the limo outside. Three different ones did in the hour I was there w/ him
Wilt in LA>>>>football or hockey player in Buffalo
April 29th, 2009 at 2:13 PM
The porn-star Houston scoffs at this as a measly 2 days worth of work.
April 29th, 2009 at 2:14 PM
I’m just telling you what I read. I read that Ed Jones was screwing EVERY woman at a party, and the women were coming there to snort coke and screw athletes, and there were a lot of them.
I’ve never been in a room with two chicks who would wanna do it, so i’m not trying to make this my deal, I just read it in a book.
April 29th, 2009 at 2:15 PM
if he takes one day off, he needs to bed six the next.
I’m not saying I believe the 20,000, but yeah, 1,000 in a year is definitely possible. I’m pretty sure you could find a pretty good coke party every night if you were Wilt. And I’m sure he took some days off, but you can make up for those.
April 29th, 2009 at 2:16 PM
I just called the NBA front office and they said a decision will be made in 20 minutes
That’s funny, and sad.
April 29th, 2009 at 2:18 PM
If wilt went to a coke party every night or every other night, he wouldn’t have made it to 63 years old.
April 29th, 2009 at 2:18 PM
I just called the NASA front office, and guess what, the S stands for space!

No one ever got as much poon as Brian Quinnett during his heyday.
April 29th, 2009 at 2:30 PM
My bad, Irish. Though now I feel let down; I’d like to believe a fan could actually have such an ability.
April 29th, 2009 at 2:32 PM
would you?
April 29th, 2009 at 2:36 PM
from ages 15-30? no. after 30? yes. fifteen straight years of sex without an off-day might make me look for something else to do. I might do 2-3 a week tops after that, if I’m still able…
April 29th, 2009 at 2:38 PM
xmas? thanksgiving? you think he’s laying wood to three different women on national holidays?
April 29th, 2009 at 2:38 PM
you’re making the mistake of comparing yourself to wilt.
April 29th, 2009 at 2:39 PM
xmas? thanksgiving? you think he’s laying wood to three different women on national holidays?
You should have seen him on Festivus
April 29th, 2009 at 2:40 PM
on xmas his presents were actually women with bows tied to them. and on thanksgiving he would have women over at his house cooking thanksgiving dinner and afte dinner was over he would ang them…all of them.
April 29th, 2009 at 2:41 PM
good point, mrejr. I’m only mortal.
April 29th, 2009 at 2:58 PM
and on thanksgiving he would have women over at his house cooking thanksgiving dinner and afte dinner was over he would ang them…all of them.
hang? Sick bastard, that Wilt.
April 29th, 2009 at 3:01 PM
and = bang
April 29th, 2009 at 3:02 PM
oh, and you’re assuming that in 20 years, the guy nEVER had a girlfriend
strawberry’s #’s are much easier to fathom.
let’s say 3000 women.
you’re looking at only 200 a year from the age of 18-33.
April 29th, 2009 at 3:10 PM
Dude, it was the 70’s. I think they banned girlfriends during that decade. This was pre-internet, pre-Reagan, and pre-AIDS. He was banging the shit out of everything.
I wish I could find the clip of Wilt’s Vietnam Memorial that they did on In Living Color.
April 29th, 2009 at 3:11 PM
oh, and you’re assuming that in 20 years, the guy nEVER had a girlfriend
has a girlfriend ever stopped a guy from fucking some strange?
TBL, it seems you’re really struggling with the possibility of this being even remotely true. I have met/seen/known probably 75 male athletes/celebrities in my life. I would hazard a guess that 80% of them are regularly picking up women on the side, whenever they feel like it.
Remember Eugene Robinson of the Falcons getting the Christian Athletes in Action Award, then walking down Biscayne Blvd to get a blow job the NIGHT BEFORE the Super Bowl?
