Spellman WAS a top shelf defensive end about 7 or 8 years ago. Last I recall, he was with the Lions in either 00 or 01 and then came his "minor problem" on the airplane. He also had stops with the Vikings and the Bears along the way.
offiss:
I don't know if Spellman is the guy who was naked on the highway. The guy I remember who was involved in a situation that is close to that decription was Leon Smith. Leon was drafted out of HS into the NBA and he had a few "contact with reality problems" of his own. He was arrested for walking down a highway naked and carrying a knife/hatched/whatever and claimed he was out to find Christopher Columbus. [Memo to Leon: He's dead.] :smashfrea
FWIW, Leon is also going to try to make a comeback and is playing in either the CBA or the ABA or one of those "minor basketball leagues".
