Hooped Up

I once had a crazy girlfriend that blinded me with regular mindless sex and everybody around me kept telling me that she was going down Niagara Falls in a brick padded barrel crazy. They were all so right! As it turn out, my situation wasn’t too far removed from Dirk Nowitzki’s current stalker / girlfriend / baby moms / identity situation, because the Mavs warned Nowitzki that homegirl was crazy. I wonder if Dirk’s lady friend knows my ex…

“Multiple Dallas Mavericks sources said Thursday that members of the organization cautioned Dirk Nowitzki about his relationship with Cristal Taylor and that he had suspicions about her long before her arrest on Wednesday.

While many Mavericks fans probably regard the timing as awful, with Dallas trailing Denver 2-0 in the second round of the NBA playoffs, the team sources characterized the news and timing as “good,” saying Taylor was a divisive influence among Nowitzki, his teammates and family members. [...] ”It’s pretty obvious that I’m going through a tough time in my personal life right now,” said Nowitzki, 30. “Like I always have, I want to kind of keep my private life private.

“I really am not at the stage where I can talk about it yet and feel comfortable talking about it. I’m more than happy to answer basketball questions, but I think at this point, I just can’t talk about it.”

Nowitzki, with dark bags under his eyes, said he is “trying to focus on basketball as much as I can,” but emphasized that he is looking forward to Saturday’s Game 3 at American Airlines Center. “I’m a warrior. I’ll be ready to play.”

I’m paraphrasing here, but did not Jesus say “Let he who is amongst us that has not been blinded with intercourse, cast the first celibate stone”.
