Chris with a K

   Usually when someone loses between 120 and 160 pounds, they are praised, congratulated, or the winner of NBC’s, “The Biggest Loser”. But that hasn’t been the case for  Nets forward, Kris Humphries…He’s been vilified.
   If you still haven’t connected the dots…Kim Kardashian is the 120 to 160 pounds he lost.  And if you don’t know who Kim Kardashian is..a simple google search will do.  (If you’re under  18 you may want to click the safe search option).
Happier Days...
   The 26-year-old Humphries and his one-time bride; met, fell in love, had a reality TV wedding, reportedly made $17 million and got divorced….faster than David Stern could step in.
   And now Kim K’s ex is the butt of jokes, getting booed at arenas around the country and the most disliked player in the NBA. (According to a survey conducted by Nielsen and E-Poll Market Research that appeared on Forbes.com.)
   HE’S MORE DISLIKED THAN LEBRON….THE GUY THAT DID A PRIMETIME SPECIAL ABOUT CHOOSING WHERE HE WANTED TO WORK. THAT GUY...
   This hardly seems fair. I am not a Kris Humphries apologist by any means, but my biggest problem with him is that his first name is spelled incorrectly.. (Chris NOT Kris)
   He reportedly spent $2 million on a wedding ring for the reality star, and re-signed with the Nets for one year at $ 8 million.
   Reasons to hate him? Nah, he’s a professional athlete. That’s chump change. Maybe fans got tired of “Tebowing” and hating Kris Humphries is the new “it” thing to do.  
He just looks like he's praying to me...
   Are fans booing him because he was dumped?  They think he was a pawn in a reality show money grab scam and they were hoodwinked?  Whatever the reason, it seems to be helping Humphries.
   Kris had 21 points and 16 rebounds in a victory against the Wizards on Monday night. A game in which he was loudly booed and helped the Nets come back from a 21-point deficit.
   So, while I don’t understand how one of the most irrelevant players in the NBA, Kardashian divorcee or not, can become the most hated player in the league…I have a feeling the Humphries hate will continue.
A "real" reality star...
   But, since Chris with a K is newly single...and a New Jersey Net for at least the year…if he really wants to date a reality star..there’s always Snooki…
