Sean Pendergast recounts the breakups and aftermath of those departures of former Houston sports figures.
It's been quite the year in Hollywood so far. The dueling defamation trials of Johnny Depp and Amber Heard were absolutely riveting television. Will Smith connected with Chris Rock's face with the slap heard around the world at the Oscars. Hell, we even got theThen there was the most recent chapter in the saga of Britney Spears.
No, it was not Kevin Federline. Instead, it was Brit's first husband, Jason Alexander, to whom she was married for about three days a couple decades ago. Alexander has not been married since, and if the live stream he put out on social media was any indication, things aren't going all that great for him lately. You see, Jason Alexander decided to crash the wedding. Furthermore, he did so with a box cutter.
Somehow, I don't think the box cutter was brought along to help open presents. Thankfully, the wedding still happened, and Alexander is probably looking at some hefty legal bills, if not jail time. So why am I writing about this in a space normally devoted to sports? Well, because Alexander's behavior reminds us of a sad reality in not only regular relationships, but relationships with our sports heroes. Sometimes, there are breakups, and these breakups create exes, and sometimes these exes are anywhere from difficult to flat out insane.
In Houston, we've watched a lot of athletes leave over the last few years, so I thought a productive exercise, in sight of Alexander's peccadilloes, would be to rate how crazy each of our major sports ex's have revealed themselves to be. Here we go:These are all situations where the breakups were fairly amicable. In the case of the two Astro players, the team just didn't want to pay market prices for high ticket free agents.
