L'Affaire de Lowe

My, my, my, the traffic's through the roof now that the Times has finally admitted that Carolyn Hughes isn't covering the Dodgers anymore thanks to allegations of an affair with Derek Lowe that first surfaced at Ron Fineman's site last Thursday. Nosy little buggers, aren't you? If you dare, the porn site adultfyi.com has a transcript of Hughes' husband on the Tom Leykis show, in which it appears she may have been taking special deliveries from the former Laker, Karl "Mailman" Malone.

While I have no plans to turn this blog into Dodgers People, one last point of interest. First, while I share Dodger Blues' comment that "it's really none of our business" -- certainly, I wouldn't give a rat's ass if it were just some random Baseball Annie -- Jon also makes a good point that this hasn't descended to the level of questioning whether women belong on the sports beat. At least, in the mainstream media; the watercoolers aren't quite as kind, however.

I do have to wonder about Lowe's taste in women. Maybe she's cuter in person, but she bears an uncanny resemblance to former Dodger and present-day Cub Jeromy Burnitz:

Separated at birth?

Update: According to covers.com, Lowe will miss his turn tomorrow; instead, Brad Penny will make the start.

Update 2: Liars. Lowe will make his next start, Friday.

Update 3: What would a sex scandal be without scathing ridicule from Yard Work?


Comments:
Is that the chick from Fox? She's a heck of a lot better looking than Trinka. Not that I condone cheating or anything, I'm just sayin'.
 
She looks way better on t.v. and in person than in that picture.
 
I wonder what the Dodger players think about this, i.e. the ones who are married with kids and faithful to their wives. Players like Jeff Kent are probably frowning upon Derek Lowe's actions. Granted, Kent isn't known as the most affable of baseball players, but there's no doubt that he's very family-oriented and always has been. Here's a guy who would rather not be an All-Star so that he can spend the break with his family. Then you've got Lowe, who wasn't even an All-Star selection, spending the break with his mistress. That's not right.
 
Rob - Is yardwork for real??? Pretty damn funny, either way, straight ahead, or dripping with sardonic wit.
