NBA forward Lamar Odom has “vanished” and is feared to be hiding out while on a crack cocaine binge, TMZ is reporting.

That isn't compromising the integrity of the sport, however.

Remember Willie Mays Aikens and his relationship to crack cocaine? He is now working in minor league baseball. There’s a second chance for everyone, well, almost everyone.

Its a shame because he used to be a really good player..things spiraled out of control for him the moment he married into the Kardashian family..nothing ever good comes out from getting involved with that clan.

Don’t let this isolated incident destroy your faith in the integrity of major league ballplayers.

Some players even in the throes of drugs still at least play like they care.

Odom looked like he wanted to be anywhere but in Dallas while he was here.

I wish it would go the same way as the Sopranos’ intervention:

Drugs, eh? Well, that explains a couple of things - the declining quality of his play and his decision to marry a member of the Kardashian family.

Agree. Look at Bruce Jenner; it’s like he’s auditioning for “Gollum: The Musical.”
