Reaping What She Sowed

Evelyn Lozada, poster child for domestic violence?

Evelyn Lozada hopes to be a role model for women of domestic violence. Seriously, Evelyn? Apparently, beating up women on a TV show is just girls being girls.

Somewhere Kim Kardashian must be having a good (albeit ever so private) giggle.  The marriage of Evelyn Lozada and Chad Ochocinco has self-destructed in only 41 days. 

While domestic violence is no laughing matter, when the bully gets bullied, it does have the outward appearance of the world righting itself.

When Thunder Meets Heat

Thunder, dust, Heat, and ash in the atmosphere under a blood red moon. Battle of the Elements: The NBA Finals should be a dangerous thing of beauty to watch!

The easy breezy Lakes of old have dried up.  They have come up empty.  Fruitless and barren as the dry ground.  Spurs are rusting by the side of the road.  Discarded like a set of dull Clippers.  Those who have lost Pace have been Nixed in a matter of New York minutes.  “Bless me lucky charms,” even the luck of the Irish could not save them.

LeBron James: Back On Top

Lebron James: Back On Top

“Heat nation, we have a bigger goal,” James said. “This is very overwhelming to me as an individual award. But this is not the award I want, ultimately. I want that championship. That’s all that matters to me.” Photo courtesy of Roberto Koltun / Miami Herald

LeBron James, reigning Miami Heat and NBA star, accepted his third NBA MVP award Saturday, making him only the eighth player in league history to reach that milestone.  The others sharing the glory— Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Michael Jordan, Bill Russell, Wilt Chamberlain, Larry Bird, Magic Johnson and Moses Malone — all have won NBA titles.

“He will get his championship,” Heat President Pat Riley said, according to the Associated Press.  “And there might be a lot more there, too.”

James’ numbers this season were 27.1 points, 7.9 rebounds, 6.2 assists, and 1.9 steals per game with 53 percent shooting.  Though the stellar numbers were extremely comparable to last season, James fizzled out at a distant third in the MVP race behind Derrick Rose and Dwight Howard.

Why is obvious.

LeBron James finally proposed to longtime girlfriend and high school sweetheart Savannah Brinson on New Year’s Eve.  On bended knee, the Miami Heat pro-baller presented his wife-to-be a dazzling pear-shaped diamond set atop two sparkling baguettes.  As the proud mother of LeBron Jr., 7, and Bryce, 4 (who were already born and staring Savannah dead in the mouth at the time of the question), how could she refuse?

“I had no idea it was coming,” said teammate Chris Bosh [before collapsing to the floor in tears].  “I just heard some commotion, and yeah, there it was.  It was nice . . . real cool.”

Michael Jordan Falling Into Marriage Trap, Again

Michael Jordan and Yvette Prieto

Counting his other "wife" of ten years, this may actually be Michael Jordan's third marriage.

Kris Humphries Speaks: Never Trust a Big Butt and a Smile
