tyson went back after prison.
Jordan went back after baseball (worse than prison I reckon).
Ali and Foreman both went back to boxing.

Hendry tried a comeback.
Pele got duped and had to come back to football.
interesting idea for a sports thread.

Landon Donovan retired at least twice, from memory, perhaps we can get him back again. Can't be any slower than what we have.
