It's official, Tony and Eva are done. Rumors were going are around gossip sites all week, but they were finally confirmed in a statement released late Friday. According to US Magazine:
Longoria's rep, Liza Anderson, issued the following statement today: "Eva and Tony are going through a very difficult time right now, just like any other couple with extremely demanding careers."
"Difficult time right now" is Hollywood code for "Tony is not banging Eva Longoria."
The timing of the press release is very intentional. By waiting for Friday afternoon, it's virtually a dead news item until Monday, because the entertainment media doesn't work over the weekend. (This also delays the watercolor talk for a few days.)
Anyway, who knows how they broke up and more importantly who really cares? That's the whole reason why I hated the Tony-Eva coverage. I didn't need the 2,318 camera shots of Eva saying "Go Spurs" while texting her publicist her during Spurs games. I didn't need sideline reporters describing their date nights. I didn't need the wedding plan speculation. Basically, I didn't need my NBA coverage becoming another section of US Weekly magazine.
Though given that she's an actress, it didn't surprise me that the relationship died along with the Spurs playoff run. By missing out on the finals, Longoria lost one month of exposure and cross promoting from ABC. Now Eva can go back to watch she's good at, being a smoking hot babe.
Howard Stern once said, no matter how hot the woman, there's always some guy out there who's sick of her. Today, that guy is Tony Parker.
i don't blame eva . tony parker wants to park his thing in other places . go back to bangin' the gardener eva !

Pobre Tony.
I don't know what you're talking about: The 2,000+ shots of Eva Longoria were the only way you could stay awake during a Spurs game, and really the only reason to watch.

A) "I didn't need my NBA coverage becoming another section of US Weekly magazine."
I know it's slow in the NBA news dept., but by acknowledging this story that's exactly what you're doing.
B) Jack = 100% correct.
C) The actual quote is, "for every hot girl, there's a guy who's tired of effing her."

thank you, jesus! now maybe can tony can play some mfin' ball instead of going on oprah. besides, eva longoria is a skank. she can go back to being that untalented n'sync guy's girlfriend and tony can have his fill of young, hot, white girls. so long eva! go spurs!

quote: "hot, white girls." not only is the last adjective unnecessary, it's borderline racist... Is it oxymoron day or something?
Posted by: geebs | October 03, 2006 at 03:45 PM
it's a joke, guy.
an oxymoron is a combination of words with two contradictory meanings. here's some examples: jumbo shrimp, civil war, cold fire, genius geebs, etc.
white girls is not an oxymoron. unless you believe that all white people are male.
you need to go back to school and quit railing on me because i'm a spurs fan and brett and craig are spur-haters, you little brown-noser. just make a comment about the subject and shut-up. you are a loser because you just bag on other people instead of making a comment on the current subject.
this is how you lash out? in an anonymous forum? you must be a sad pathetic little nothing in life. what do you do all day? surf the net and twist off on people on chat boards? eat your frozen burrito in your efficiency apartment watching the mavericks lose and cry yourself to sleep, masturbating, thinking about that one girl who rejected you after one dinner date 10 years ago? now that, mr. grammar, was a run on sentence.

Do I have to separate the two of you?

My goodness. Be cool guys, be cool.

c'mon dave... let me spell it out for you... I know it's difficult for your typical NBA blog commenter to figure out, but the two phrases which i pointed out to be an oxymoron were "hot" and "white girls". not 'white' and 'girls'. it's an oxymoron made from personal preference. it may be hard to fathom, but not everyone thinks white chicks are all that spectacular.
Brown noser? Wow. sweet. I'm a Suns fan, and they catch plenty of wreck on this site.
fuck. really. you get that upset? Must be because your white girl is raggin on you too hard.
I was crackin a joke, not trying to start an internet flame war, you poptart. Previous to your 'lashing out' i had not bothered to remember your name. obviously, you pay a bit more attention to the comments on this board than I do, but I'll make it a point to fan the flames of your discontent from now on.
Signed,
your internet stalker.

ps: dave, they've been waiting for you: http://www.spursreport.com/forums/index.php
i'm sure you can swing from nuts all day over there...

wtf! i don't care this much. i just don't want to be called a racist. i'm not really pissed. these are all just jokes. everybody calm down. who lashed out first? hmm.
poptart? ok.
also, hot white is still not an oxymoron. i looked it up. you can't just make stuff up. i call bullshit on that.
believe me i think all women are beautiful on the outside and the inside. just not eva longoria, she sucks.
thanks for the link. . . i guess.
wanna call a truce?

apparently sarcasm is extremely hard to get across on comment blogs.
