Kobe Bryant, Deion Sanders Divorces: Is This Sports?

The talk seemingly gets louder whenever these types of
names make the news, whether it's Kris Humphries and
Kim Kardashian, or Tiger, or anyone of these Mega Super
Stars, but just because they are athletes or players of
sorts, is this "Sports" news? It seems that the guys
who want to talk about this are becoming worse than the
women they are with at the supermarket checking out the
tabloids at the checkout line. Quick disclaimer: I am
not calling Kris Humphries a Mega Super Star, I meant
Kim.

I am often left not understanding how these stories make
headlines on sports websites. I understand that they
make the news, they are of course celebrities, but is it
the demand of the sports fan that is getting this so much
attention? We talked about the Tiger fiasco for what was
seemingly forever, and it took up huge chunks of time on
the sports talk radio stations as well as the 24 hour
sports networks. It was news for sure, but was it sports
news? I guess you could make a case that that may be the
only one since it affected his game so much. Deion is
retired, is that sports news? Kobe's game hasn't been
affected at all so far, so should we assume it will?
After all this is the same guy that was on trial for rape,
does it get too much bigger than that? Kris Humphries?
C'mon, really? He married a girl who's only real claim to
fame is that she had sex in front of a camera. Let the
gossip mongers follow that one, but how is this sports news
news worthy. Do we talk about the Dow Jones or stock market
in between highlights?

I guess I just don't get it? How much do you think we will
be talking about this Kobe or Deion thing? I'm done, what
about you?

Does Steve Williams Understand He's A Douche?

I guess this is sort of a rhetorical question of
sorts, because though it may not need an answer
so to speak, it does make me scratch a hole in
my head. I mean does Steve Williams realize that
in spite of the money he's made as a caddie, he is
really no more than a Men's room attendant on a
golf course? I mean no disrespect to those hard
working Men's room attendants around the world
who actually do a great job dealing with the hand
they've been dealt, but I use this term in the
worst way that a bathroom attendant is stereo-
typically seen. He carried Tiger Woods' bags for
eleven years, he may as well have been hand rolling
the condoms on his penis for all we know. What a
Douche! STFU! Adam Scott won the golf tournament
idiot, not you! Best feeling in all your years in
the game???? What game? Your a friggin caddie, and
an overpaid one at that. You are the best example
of how STUPID people can be sometimes, and in the
process you actually made Tiger Woods look good.
Do you know how hard that is? A man who slept with
porn stars and diner waitress rejects while his kids
and wife knew none the better, and you made him look
good for a moment, Bravo, Idiot ! Oh and by the way,
SFTU !
