Men Who Cheat on T.V.

November 8, 2006

Seriously, this was one of
the most telling things I’ve ever seen in my entire life, on TV that is.

Tyra had on these NBA
basketball players and their wives talking about cheating and groupies, and
what not, and one woman was crying because I guess her husband is famous for
not cheating, or for cheating; it was hard to tell because I came in at the
end, but there she was crying and saying how she could never accept her husband
cheating, and Tyra was saying, “Me too, that’s why I broke up with my boyfriend,”
and then Trya started crying. I was
sort of crying, but not really, because, like I said, I came in at the end, but
anyway. . .

Next they had on these
groupies being interrogated by Trya, and she’s basically calling them scum, and
they’re saying that they just like to date tall guys or whatever, and then the
camera switches over to the husband of the wife who was crying with her arm
around her husband, like she was saying,”
Not my man, honey.” And all you see is
the husband nodding and smiling at the girls, trying not to laugh at their
familiar stories about the way they wait outside the locker room, and the wife
has this stern look on her face like, “I’m so glad we’re not a part of this,
are we, dear?” And he’s got one arm
around his wife and his whole face is up there laughing with those girls. You just had to see it.

And then the wife of some
other pro basketball player comes on. I think this couple was either Polish or
Russian. And she’s dressed really sexy,
with way too much makeup and he’s sitting there next to her, all tall and geeky
and gross, and she starts talking about the way she keeps her professional
athlete/husband in line. Here’s what
she does: She has a rule that he’s
allowed to cheat once a year so long as he doesn’t get emotionally
involved. She’s sitting there with her
breasts popping out of her shirt saying, “And you can criticize me all you
want, but my husband has never cheated because I give him the freedom most
women deprive their husbands of. Groupies are constantly tempting professional
athletes and this is my way of keeping my family together.”

And then the camera cuts to
the husband, and here’s what he says, I swear to God, “Yes, my wife is very
good to me, and she fulfills me, and I have this offer from her, but that doesn’t
mean I will ever take the offer. . .” 

Are you ready?

 And then he looks right into the camera with his enormous face,
and says, “But maybe someday!” 


He was this close to flashing his cell phone number. You just can’t imagine how incredibly obvious these guys were,
while their wives were crying and making deals with the devil. I just don’t get it, but then again, I was
never into basketball, so I’m probably missing a big piece of the puzzle.
