8/10/2004 05:04:08 PM|||Shep|||So, evidently Rick Fox has filed for divorce from Vanessa Williams. I guess he had enough of people calling him Mr. Vanessa Williams, and he's decided to become his own man. Of course, it says the two had been separated, so it wouldn't surprise me if she initiated the separation, and he was like "I'd better break up with her before she dumps me." Okay, that's probably a really mean thing to say... but look at the man's hair! Perhaps all the styling product affected his ability to reason.

Fantasy Impact

Well, I'm sure a lot of men's fantasies will be impacted by this news. As for the world of basketball, I can't believe that anyone is really going to care if Fox is depressed and can't manage more than 3-4 points a game next season. I read in some article about it that he was considering retirement as an option to continuing sucking. Seems like a poor time to file for divorce when you're finally going to stop travelling around the country for 8 months out of the year. But I've never been married, so what do I know?

If he does retire, look for Ricky Davis, Jumaine Jones, and maybe even rookie Justin Reed to pick up Fox's 20 minutes, 5 points, and 4 rebounds per game.
