When people feel the need to take to the skies with their message. But yeah, only jerks stalk married women, Reggie. Creepy jerks.

Evidently Reggie Miller took a shine to Alex von Furstenberg’s (son of fashion’s own Diane von Furstenberg) fiancee Ali Kay. That would be a no, no. Stalking doubly so.

According to the restraining order, which was never filed, Miller is neighbors with von Furstenberg and Kay, and met her at a Fourth of July party last year. In early March, he ran into her at a grocery store, then waited outside for an hour until she left, before following her up the Pacific Coast Highway.

He also allegedly harassed her by phone, including sending her 53 text messages over the course of less than four hours.

Sean Williams, forward for the New Jersey Nets, was arrested after an confrontation with a mall clerk. In a true sports star moment, he ended up throwing a computer monitor in the store.

At about 2 p.m. Monday, officers responded to a disturbance at a cell phone store at the Park Meadows Mall, Detective Sgt. Ron Pinson of the Lone Tree police said.

“The investigation indicated that Sean Williams had been involved in a verbal altercation with the clerk at the store,” Pinson said in a release. “He then picked up a computer monitor and threw it inside the store. The monitor was broken and also caused damage to a printer and signature pad.”

Damages were estimated at $1,200 to $1,300, he said. (source)

Really? C’mon Sean, get a grip. Throwing a computer monitor? I have to say it again…really? It goes to show that sports stars think that they can get away with anything. This is the second arrest that Williams has had this year, with a previous arrest in 2005 for possessing marijuana.

A Jerk of the Promiscuous Variety

20,000 – That is the number of individual women that Wilt Chamberlain claims to have slept with. This incredible number puts Chamberlain of having relations with an average of 1.14 women every day since he was 15 until the day he died.

Whether or not this outrageous claim is true overall is an irrelevant point. I would have to say that just making the claim is enough to earn you jerk status. It certainly implies a major lack of respect for women.

But I’m fair. Here’s a quote in which Chamberlain somewhat admits that what he did wasn’t the best course of action.

“It would have been better for me to have one woman 1,000 times,” the ‘76ers and Lakers legend told Philadelphia magazine.

“I wasn’t bragging that I was a great lover,” Chamberlain admits. “Actually, if you look at it, you can say that I had so many women because I was such a bad lover, they never came back a second time.” (source)
