Rice's past boyfriends include a member of the Denver Broncos, whom she almost married, a University coach, a Fortune 500 professional, and Gene Washington, the San Francisco 49ers wide receiver.

Do you think Bill Walsh introduced them?

IMHO, Arnold would not dig up dirt on Condi (although if he were competing against her on stage he would hide her posing trunks). Do you think this sounds like him or is it just the rats up to their normal game?

Kindly disregard my previous post on this thread-it was meant for another thread that said Arnold was building up a file on her. My bad

Washington is separated from his wife, who lives in CaliforniaSince the article's from India ("American football matches?") can we assume this means he's divorced? Otherwise, it sounds kind of Clinton-administration-y, to coin an adjective.

I beleive Washington is just separated, not officially divorced. I also don't think there is anything wrong with him escorting Condi to dinners, etc. It is clear they are friends. Long time, trusted friends and you've gotta beleive that's an important thing for her to have in the business she is in.

I also don't think there is anything wrong with him escorting Condi to dinners, No, I guess not. The article implied a developing romance, which I would find problematic ... but I'll assume this is mainly fluff, and forget it!

Not a bad guess, but either way, guys love women who like football. She'd be an ideal candidate for any office-- women would support her because she's one of them and men would because she's so much like them. Reminds me of Prof. Henry Higging: "Why Can't a Woman be more like a Man"

They can imply all day long, but I think Washington's own words carry more weight than implications.

Careless reading on my part. I wouldn't have even brought it up if my vision hadn't blurred before the end of that paragraph!

I guess it depends on the couple involved. If they're separated but trying to work things out, of course they shouldn't date other people. OTOH, if they're just waiting for the divorce to become official, I don't see anything wrong with it.
Now if they're dating someone who broke up the marriage, that would be another story (speaking hypothetically of course. No indication of that here.)

I myself would never date, while going through a divorce, because I am a parent. I think this can be too confusing for the children. However, I do not have enough facts about this separation with Washington and his wife, to speculate further.

They say they're not "dating," anyway. What really threw me off was the graphic with the article!

Here's an old pic of Gene:
Gene also did a fair bit of acting back in the day.

President Washington...that could work.
To: GraniteStateConservative
All Gene says is that he is her escort and they've known each other for years. Why do people have to assume that something romantic is going on just because they know each other so well. Can't men and women be good friends and not date? Don't you people watch Seinfeld? :-)
