Onetime most eligible bachelor in Dallas eligible again

Silly Troy. You grow a beard in winter, not lose one.

 

I'm not meaning to rip the sports predictor for posting this, but I just don't understand why divorce serves as news? About half the country gets divorced, what's the big deal?

 

Didn't Troy date Sandra Bullock as well?

 

I thought it was Lorrie Morgan.

 

Yea. I mean, divorce sucks, but it's far too common in this country. Nearly 1 out of 2 married couples gets divorced.

 

Did anyone notice during the Packers-Falcons games when Buck and Aikman were talking about the Packers new "Bone" formation. Buck was talking about how well it had worked and Troy jumped in and said " I just like it's name". I thought I had imagined it but then a friend of mine that happens to be gay texted me and asked if I heard Troy come out on TV. He also spent a bunch of time earlier in the year explaining how good looking Kurt Shottenheimer was(again my gay friend quickly pointed this out). Not that there is anything wrong with it!

 

That number is heavily inflated by serial divorces. First-time marriages stick at a much higher rate.

 

I had no idea. Really?

 

Skip, is that you?

 

I suppose you're right, and maybe it just doesn't happen as much in the sports world to get publicized like it does in entertainment.

Rick- Very true. Overall numbers always seem to fluctuate between 46 and 51 percent, with second and third marriages generally in the 60s. Then you factor in partners who've had parents split up and that usually increases things too. Either way, it's a good line to give my girlfriend and tell her it's a numbers game. I'm not scared of commitment, just how expensive a divorce could be on a journalist and social worker's salary!
