Kardashian Kurse


Kardashian Kurse

I’ve really enjoyed attempting to blog about basketball topics which have resulted in topics that mostly revolve around racial issues and things that are happening off the basketball court.  It would simply be to easy to write about what happened on the courts….right?  This week “All-That-Hoop-Laa” makes a stop in the great state of Texas as I find the demotion of Dallas Mavericks forward Lamar Odom interesting…and shocking. 

He stand’s 6’10 and is a former 6th man of the year award winner.  He has also won 2 NBA Championships with the LA Lakers and then he got married to a Kardashian.  Call it a curse…or call it a “Kurse” with a capital “K” but it seems to me that the more athletes get involved with any of the Kardashian girls their careers take a nose dive!  Ask Cowboys wide receiver Miles Austin or Miami Dolphins running back Reggie Bust…I mean Bush.  Both were involved with Kim…both are now afterthoughts at their positions on their own teams.  I won’t even mention the 72 days of love with Nets Forward Kris Humphries.  Sorry.  Okay I mentioned it.  You get the point.     

Lamar was demoted to the Texas Legends of the NBA’s Developmental League (D-League) at the All-Star break.  Luckily for him, he was called back up to the Dallas Mavericks earlier today, just in time for tonight’s game vs. Utah.  I write the following from my heart to Mr. Odom.

Dear Lamar,

I’m sure you are happily married to Khloe although it is fairly obvious to me that she came from the shallow end of the “gene pool.”  Kim got most of the good ones!  She has all the right genes in all the right places, the leftovers went to Kourtney and the scraps went to your wife…but that’s really beside the point.  Your interracial relationship probably has nothing to do with your demotion to the NBA’s developmental league but seriously dude I see more of you on an episode of the Kardashians than I do on the NBA hardwood.  And…..I don’t even keep up with the Kardashians!  Lay off the candy, get your mind right, give Khloe some shopping money…and play ball.  That’s what you get paid to do!

Sincerely,
Mike
