Contrary to popular opinion (sarcasm is one of my strong suits), celebrities are an invaluable source of incredible stupidity. There is a very deep well to draw from; an endless supply of material, and I’m tapping into it. Celebrities do and say the most bizarre, absolutely, insane and inane things and I’m happy to supply with a few samples every week.
Though there are hundreds to choose from in movies, television, radio and politics, I will concentrate my efforts to dig up humorous stories from the world of sports.
And who better to name this award of idiocy after than the all-time sports idiot, O.J. Simpson. You know, the guy who had the world in his hands and decided instead to throttle and slash his ex-wife and her boyfriend to death.
It is for him that I respectfully and endearingly name our award: The Context Sports, O.J. Simpson Award for Excellence in Stupidity. Nicknamed, “The O.J.”
Today’s recipient is former NBA star Alvin Robertson. The 47-year-old was today charged with sexual assault of a child, trafficking an underage child for purposes of sex and forcing a sexual performance by a child.
The former Spur and 10-time All-Star has not been apprehended as yet but we’re hoping that when he is, the judicial process does not drag its feet and let him off on a technicality like they did with O.J.
For that, Mr. Robertson wins The O.J. and a hopefully a dance with the thick cell mate in prison.
