This whole thing needs to teach these nikkas a fukking lesson: if your chick wants to be in the spotlight she either needs a Susie homemaker brand or something that showcases a skill.
It never works when an athlete has a talentless woman by their side who’s only appeal is beauty/personality.
Let me go through the list of the more infamous examples:
—Kris Benson had a promising career as a starting pitcher in MLB in the late 90s and early 2000s but you know what everyone remembers him for? His ex stripper wife Anna who took the media by storm by wearing revealing outfits to his games, being a chatty patty with any media platform that put a microphone in her face, and acting as a proxy to criticize the teams that he played for. Reportedly the Mets got rid of him off the strength of his wife’s personality.
Kris and Anna divorced in 2012 when she threatened him with a gun while she was wearing a bullet proof.
—Miko Grimes was a Atlanta pass around before meeting and marrying Brent Grimes and using his up-and-coming career as a NFL cornerback as a platform to up her media profile, acting as his proxy manager and asserting herself as a crude sports personality. She could never shut the fukk up and outright hurt her husband’s career, basically forcing the Dolphins to get rid of him and many NFL teams did not want to take a chance on him knowing his wife would be critical of any team move she disagreed with.
—The Kardashians. Nuff said.
—Even Ayesha Curry got besides herself when she got way too comfortable with the media/twitter. She started dancing in the videos, criticizing the league, and to top it off admitted that she was insecure because her brand had become Susie homemaker instead of sexy wife of an athlete.
Obviously Steph Curry is a smarter man than most because he clearly had a talk with her behind closed doors about representing him and sure enough she’s faded back into the shadows, keeping her homemaker brand going and having more children.
The point is, these players and their women have to realize that as a professional athlete (especially in the NFL where a lot of the institutions there seek to emasculate you as a part of the culture) there has to be a little or no distractions off the field. Dual income is great. Having a wife who is a star is great. But her stardom needs to have some substance to it.
