LOL. Yeah, if I had a bud that was being controlled like that, I'd worry about him too.... Ah well, I'm sure the millions help.
After game 7 against the Lakers I saw him walk to the locker room with his head down sad naturally and a woman was clinging to him smiling and cheerful so I'm guessing that's his wife cause if its not after reading this article then man he's got a lot of explaining to do. She looked ok. Nah def not Jason Kidd wife material. Oh yea whupish! or is it Wopow!!! That SportsGuy on Page 2 Espn has funny stuff to say about it: "Question: What's the story with Doug Christie? Did you see that New York Times article about Christie and his wife, the piece that resulted in the Whipped Hall of Fame being quickly changed to the Doug Christie Memorial Hall of Fame? Everyone has that one buddy who constantly makes up lame excuses because his wife or girlfriend won't let him leave the house, but Christie takes it to another level. This is unprecedented stuff. Few things have rendered me speechless over the years, but check out some of these tidbits: You know when Christie raises his arm, extends his pinky and index fingers and signals into the air? He's actually signalling "I love you" to his wife (Jackie), something that happens 50-60 times a game, even during crunch-time. It's almost like he suffers from a whipped version of Tourette's. Some direct quotes and excerpts: "With few exceptions, Doug Christie does not look at other women, avoiding dialogue or even direct contact" ... The Christies remarry every year on their anniversary, "not a mere renewal of their wedding vows but an actual wedding -- replete with friends, family cake and a reception" ... Mrs. Christie attends 25-30 of the Kings road games, always riding on the team charter ... "(She) arrives before games with her husband and leaves with him after" ... "She sends him a note in the locker room before every game, taken there by a team attendant. He writes a reply and sends it back" ... "Sometimes on the road, Jackie will ride in a car behind the team bus, talking to Doug until he arrives at the hotel or arena." (I kept waiting for this part: "When Doug asked if he could attend Mateen Cleaves' bachelor party this season, his wife burned his clothes and set his BMW convertible on fire.") My favorite part: "When Christie played for the Raptors, his wife once confronted a female fan seeking an autograph and a kiss in Toronto. 'A security guard grabbed her, but I put my hand up and told her to back off really loud,' she said. 'It scared me, because my voice sounded like a demon ... she was touching someone she shouldn't have been.'" I guess there are three appropriate reactions here: 1. If you had one TV wish, wouldn't it be for the Christies to appear on "Temptation Island." I always write how this-and-that would make for the greatest TV series ever, but realistically, a "Temptation Island" with the Christies ... that would never be topped in the annals of TV history. That's the Comedy Ceiling right there, isn't it? Even my idea for the HBO talk show with Corey Haim, Corey Feldman and an open bar couldn't come close. 2. If you were granted an alternate TV wish, wouldn't it be for an "Osbournes"-style reality-TV show called "The Christies"? Just Doug getting harassed by his wife in episodes entitled "I wasn't looking at her!" and "I told you, that was Peja's fiancee!" 3. From this point forward, doesn't Christie's replica Kings jersey immediately become the best possible way for a group of guys to humiliate one of their emasculated buddies? Let's say you have that one friend who's spending a little too much time with a new girlfriend, and it seems like she's wearing the pants in the family, to the point that your buddy has been blowing you off. BOOM! Everyone chips in five bucks, you purchase the Christie jersey, and you mail it anonymously to him" http://espn.go.com/page2/s/simmons/020606.html
U know. . . After some thought She only behaves like this cause he got millions if he was a plumber she would have ACTUALLY WORK OR SOMETHING!! Jees . .she needs to GET A LIFE outside of him Both of them have deep issues Rocket River
Makes ya wonder if Webber was scared to shoot or feared the wrath of the kings sideline enforcer? "If Christie passes me the ball she'll think i'm making moves on him- must run away" Was'nt she featured in Euro Swank April 84?
KDS, Hey dude, you're famous! Your post above was read this morning by the 610AM morning crew (John and Lance). Lance Z. is the one that actually read it, and when I heard it I almost crashed on the way to work it was so funny! So I guess those guys not only read the BBS, but take material off of it as well, though I don't remember him mentioning you or the Clutch BBS specifically as the source... .
Yea I dunno if I put it in quotes right, but I didn't write that. The sportsguys hilarious though. Always fun reading his other columns.

The source of his "clinging D"... LOL pas! In a couple of years, she might pull a page out of the late Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes and burn down his house like Lisa did to Andre Rison's. Man...even if that's twisted, if he doesn't have problems with it, then good for him. Robert Horry plays 3 different versions of the same video game while he's at his LA condo. He breaks that NBA stereotype of a traveling sex circus.
While it seems extreme, it may just be a reaction to the stresses that the NBA puts on their relationship. They deserve kudos for maintaining a strong relationship under those circumstances. Personally, I try not to make friends with women that are attractive to me as part of my overall plan to avoid even being tempted to cheat. It's the same principle as not walking through 6th ward at night...why tempt fate?
