“The district attorney’s office has filed a criminal complaint against former NBA all-star Antoine Walker alleging he failed to pay back $822,500 in gambling debts at three Las Vegas casinos.
The complaint charges Walker, 32, who wants to return to the NBA, with three felony counts in passing $1Â million in bad checks while taking out the markers at Caesars Palace, Planet Hollywood and Red Rock Resort. By law, gambling debts in Nevada are handled as bad check cases.
According to a copy of the complaint obtained by the Sun, Walker obtained gambling markers by writing 10 separate $100,000 checks with insufficient funds at the casinos from July 27 to Jan. 19.
Six of the checks were made out to Caesars Palace and two each to Planet Hollywood and Red Rock Resort, the complaint says.”
Wonder what he was playing? Sometimes you have to know when to hold’em, know when to fold’em. Maybe I should listen to my own advice.
One woman, who bedded six English Premier League players has contracted the HIV virus according to The Sun.
“It is reported the shocked players took the tests after being told a soccer groupie had found out she was infected.
She apparently had no idea whether she contracted the virus – which causes AIDS – before or after she slept with them all.
The stars, who it’s claimed play for three different clubs, cannot be named for legal reasons.
A source said: “All of them are beside themselves with worry. They are all only too aware of the scandal it will cause.
It is believed the infected girl hooked up with the stars after meeting them through her boyfriend. When she split up with him it’s said she slept with them over several months.
The girl then apparently found out she was HIV positive when she got back together with her boyfriend and had a test.”
This is some scary stuff. Now how long before the names of these six players leak out?
Remember when Matt Bush was the #1 pick in the MLB Draft. Remember how he was suppose to be the next best thing since sliced bread. Well those days are long gone as Bush has plead guilty to assaulting students at a lacrosse practice at Granite Hills High and also admitting to reckless driving and vandalism charges in another incident. Here is video of the poor guy crying as he was being taken away by police.
As we head into another summer weekend, let us keep it hot with Keeley Hazell and her Ralph Magazine spread. The pinup model has been linked to Kieren Richardson and the recently Joe Cole. Not that you really care but I had to link her to sports in some way.
I guess the “Black Olympics” consist of eating fried chicken, watermelon, and drinking Kool-Aid as fast as possible. After watching brothers, Martellus and Michael Bennett try their hand at it I wonder if they could beat me in my Olympic challenge. Us Asians aren’t built for speed, we are more endurance ready.
Many years ago, former Maple leaf and Ranger Tim Horton opened some donut shops in Canada. Then he died.
Many years later, the chain, by this time the largest in Canada, decided to expand into New York.
That’s cool. We like donuts here.
What we may not like, though, is the fact that our elected officials have decided to turn the opening of a new donut shop into a major political event, especially considering what has been going on lately in this state.
A woman is suing Binghamton University, saying the athletic department tried to use her as a “sexual plaything,” in order to bring in big donors.
It’s the latest in a string of incidents involving the school in recent months. At the same time, the basketball team won it’s first America East conference title and qualified for the NCAA tournament.
