    I don't know about that but this was in the Chronicle yesterday in David Barron's column:

    USA Network at 10 a.m. Sunday premieres PGA Tour Sunday, which will air live 49 weeks each year from tournament sites. KPRC (Channel 2) sports director Chris Wragge has signed on as a feature reporter along with Gabrielle Reece, Dara Torres and analyst John Cook.

    I've seen her on E! already. Many "Wild On" shows and a few appearances on Howard Stern. Seems like a nice lady. She was also in this bad movie:

    He isn't sleeping with him anymore. She cheated on him, they separated and for all intents and purposes are no longer a couple... Wait and yeh shall receive.. Wragge is no longer in Houston and sans the Playboy wife.

    Is it true that Mattress Mac is a cokehead?
    How about Tilman Fertitta having mob connections?

    I don't know about that, but I have heard that he got the money to start up Gallery Furniture by selling drugs.

    yeah I have heard the fertitta mob stuff. Heard some funny stories not sure if worth sharing here.

    I also heard the matress mac coke one. Also heard about mattress mac swindling bunch of people in dallas then escaping with the dough.

    One of my buddies claimed to smoke with mario elie.
    I know another guy who claims he did coke with bagwell.

    Yes looking back on it, I think kathy whitmire was gay. Wheres that 'that's a fact jack guy' at btw? That c&d scrap guy looks like he burns too.

    I think at the time she was mayor there were a lot of rumors that Whitmire was gay.

    She may or may not be, but I think back then any woman, who was strong enough to run the city of Houston and had that ambition would have had those rumors spread about her whether they are true or not. I never heard any evidence to support the claim that she was.

    I think now, she probably wouldn't have the same rumor mill scenario with her sexual preference.

    Wouldn't be surprised about the Tilman Fertitta rumors. His family has a lot of ties to Las Vegas (his cousins own the Station casinos and Zuffa/UFC).

    IBTL -- I'd be interested in hearing some stories, if you're willing to share.

    Very true. I met him a couple of years ago when he held a charity golf tournament back in Houston (when working in New York). Genuinely nice and I doubt that he is gay.

    I just saw a newer (I think?) commercial with him last weekend. But I hadn't seen any commercials on him in a while.

    Don't know about him being a cokehead, but did hear that he started GF with drug money years ago...no clue to the validity of that

    Regarding TF, there was a allegedly lot of mob connected Fertitta's in Galveston related to TF. Whether or not he actually ever did business with them is another story...no clue.

    Definitely believe the Ernest Givens and Jeff Alm stories.

    Warren Moon was a total hound...a cousin of mine used to work at a Lexus dealership in the 90's and he would always come in and ask her out, though she always declined. I'm sure Felicia was thrilled about his behavior, hence the divorce.

    I know two people who claim to have done blow with Bagwell when he was married to his first wife Shaune, who was apparently a total cokehead.
