Nice Eddy!

It wasn't a woman.

Oh... Wow.

 :-X

Hahahaha. The only true part I bet in that entire report is the part where they said Marbury had sex with an intern in his SUV. THAT I can believe, I got a good laugh out of this article.

thw lawsuit is NOT worth just thousands of dollars like someone previously said.  its for 98,000 in back wages and another 5 million for the harrassment, so that eliminates the its believeable bc its not that much money theory.

I think its BS--

Why wouldn't this guy just quit? These allegations are just insane, and so weird, they sound made up. They sound like the kind of allegations someone would fabricate in order to ruin someone. I'm guessing there was a prior conversation, something along the lines of pay me or I'll ruin you, and now this is coming out.

If all this stuff was happening for such an extended period of time, and if it was all so bad, then why wait around on filing the suit and why remain under Curry's employ? I don't really like Eddy Curry, but this just smells funky to me.

I'm not buying it either.

I'm not exactly sure what drivers make, but I doubt it's $98,000/year.  So you're telling me that this guy let over a years worth of income go unpaid before filing a complaint?  This just seems off to me.

Frankly this looks to me like Curry is being victimized by a gold digger.

Now we know why the Knicks have been trying to give away this guy all year. They had to know this was coming. OOps, sorry. Poor choice of words given the article.

LOL TP Nick.

That's my gut instinct, as well.  He's claiming sexual harassment, plus racial discrimination, plus religious discrimination, plus threatening / assault with a loaded weapon.  All those things *could* be true, but some of the allegations seem over the top.  It makes you wonder why somebody would stay in that job if all of that was going on.

However, sometimes strange allegations turn out to be true.  I'll leave plaintiff to his proofs.

Agreed. This has a Kobe feel to it. 

Besides, Curry seems to lazy to go through all of that.

I don't know, these seem very believable to me.  Other than the threats with the gun, I can remember witnessing plenty of similar incidents in the highschool lockerroom.  Just replace the limo driver with a freshman, trying out for a varsity sports team, and I can absolutely picture this. 

It's sad, but this type of thing happens a lot in schools (and frats, so I hear), but it is called "hazing" instead of "sexual harassment".  Generally, it is done by cocky jocks who think its funny, and want to demonstrate their dominance.

Now, I would not be surprised either if the guy was a gold digger, but I would be even less surprised if this was true.

I think the unbelievable part about this is that it is being portrayed as Curry making "sexual advances" on his driver.  But when you look at the actual accusations, it sounds much more like a rich, poweful guy, asserting his dominance (in a very immature way) over a subordinate.  I don't know what is unbelieveable about that.

Ok, so I'm at the part in Nba 09 "The Life" where I drove intoxicated to pick up the prostitute... now I just dropped my pants for the limo driver... How do I beat this level?

I have an inside source who says this is a misunderstanding.  Curry just took his shirt off but his adult-film-star sized chest made the driver think it was exposure.



Far be it from me to make a mildly offensive non-sequitor joke.
