Comic relief: Eagle QB has GF, half of City In Mourning

https://www.inquirer.com/news/jalen-hurts-girlfriend-eagles-superbowl-20230131.html

Fantasizing about celebrities and sports figures is, of course, nothing new, and any discussion with a pro or even college player reveals stories which are often not able to be told in “mixed company“ at least in the workplace . Apparently, the Eagles quarterback has had a girlfriend with whom he has had an on again/off-again relationship, whatever that exactly means both literally and figuratively I suppose, since his days at Alabama.

What of course is amusing is the devastated people who because he was single fantasized that they had some opportunity, albeit highly improbable bordering on impossible to land him as a boyfriend or husband. And it’s all fine, people who build glass houses, and then live in them are de riguer in America, and it is well within the norm to do so.

Of course, if when I was young, I had found out that Raquel Welch, for example, was married, and I started openly complaining that my year is now ruined, I would be the subject of some fair amount of ridicule, but it’s OK. It’s a great double standard.

Of course, with Super Bowl coming up, everything makes news and this is no small story here in Philly . In the office in which I work two of the ladies were extremely upset to hear this, and I just threw up my hands and walked out of the room , which was the right thing to do, that is, to leave them to their self-induced misery.

And just think about this: somewhere there are women who are very upset that Tucker Carlson is married to another woman. 🤮

My only celebrity crush believe it or not was on Stefanie Powers when she was The Girl From UNCLE.
