Ever since Bill Clinton was forced to awkwardly proclaim he "didn't inhale," office seekers have had to defend just about every action they have ever taken in their life, dating back to their youthful indiscretions. This brings us to Rand Paul, the 47-year-old son of Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, and Republican nominee for the Senate in Kentucky (he was ahead by 6.5 points in the latest polls), who's now in a little hot water over his membership in a secret society ...
At last! Rielle Hunter, mistress and love-child mama to twice-failed Democratic White House wannabe John Edwards, bares her soul--her trim midriff and silky thighs--to GQ. The woman whose calling card to an Edwards campaign aide proclaimed "Rielle Hunter. Being is Free," says she's never been a "gold-digger" or a "stalker" in the relationship where Edwards "held all the power," and though she slept with him in a New York hotel room the night they met, she denied they had sex in the bed he shared with his wife Elizabeth in North Carolina. Hunter, 45, calls the couple's 33-year marriage ...
Former baseball star Lenny Dysktra recently started his own magazine, The Players' Club. Of course, Dykstra couldn't operate the magazine by himself, so he hired some people to help him. One of those people was photo editor Kevin Coughlin.As far as I can tell, Coughlin worked for roughly 75 days at TPC, and because he did not sign a confidentiality agreement when he joined the magazine, he wrote about his time with Dykstra for GQ in an article entitled, "You Think Your Job Sucks? Try Working for Lenny Dykstra."And if you believe what Coughlin writes (because, remember, it is all still alleged, ...
Former Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Lenny Dykstra has been in the headlines quite a bit ever since he retired from the game of baseball. Unfortunately for the man they call Nails, all that publicity he gets is generally of the negative variety. I mean, he did start his own magazine, but then that magazine ran into some trouble when Dykstra didn't pay his business partners.Of course, Lenny's business partners aren't the only people he isn't paying apparently, as he's also been sued by pilots for not paying for a flight and his accountants. Though why should you pay your accountants when ...
Considering that most of the attention given to Gary Sheffield right now surrounds the comments he made about Latino players in GQ Magazine, most of us haven't paid much attention to how he's performing on the field. Long story short, he's hitting the hell out of the ball right now.Wondering why Sheff's Latino teammates are so supportive of him and what he said? Well, it's easy to support a guy who's hitting .375 with 7 home runs and 17 RBI's over the last ten games.Sheffield hit another home run in Thursday night's Tigers victory of the Rangers, and he passed Willie Stargell on the all-time ...
Anybody who's ever followed the career of Gary Sheffield knows that the man says some pretty interesting things. I mean, you need not look past last week when he blamed a conspiracy theory for his suspension. It wasn't that he threw a bat at an umpire, it's that the man is trying to get him.Well, Sheffield recently did an interview for the June issue of GQ Magazine, and as usual he had some odd things to say. None of them stood out as much as his reasoning why there are so few black players in baseball these days."I called it years ago. What I called is that you're going to see more black ...
