RD,
IF the rumor that I've heard is in fact true, then there's going to a ton of spin from all parties to try to keep this kind of stuff outside of the public view. In a similar view, it's why there was so much covering up of what Sark was doing other than the fact that he was doing this in public in plain view and a lot easier to confirm. This would clearly not be the case in the Tate situation. If that makes me stupid for bringing up the fact that there could be spin going on and why the spin fits the storyline (which took about 30 seconds to think up), then I'm FS in this case.
A few other things that I heard today:
One of my buddies that I play basketball with on Sunday's plays basketball often with the Kearse brothers. Apparently it wasn't a huge secret that Tate had a girlfriend (see pictures above) but Tate never thought much about it and would say that he didn't have one. When I told him what I heard his first reaction was "no way" and then about 15 seconds later he said "that makes absolute sense."
