From TMZ:
The Timberwolves big man — who’s of legal drinking age by the way — hit up his uncle Mike’s crib (yes, Mike Love….lead singer of the Beach Boys)… and whipped out the booze, solo cups and ping pong balls recently.
Here’s the rub — while Love is usually a pretty good shot on the court, we’re told his team lost on the table … ’cause Love couldn’t nail down the range.
Still, our source says Love was a good sport — and even cracked another beer with his opponents after the game.
What the fuck, man? Kevin Love plays beer pong and TMZ reports on it? Wow.
But it’s not even the fact that TMZ considers this newsworthy that gets me. It’s that according to TMZ, Kevin Love was a “good sport” and drank with his opponents after the game. Really? That’s pretty amazing! Because had TMZ not reported that, I would have thought for sure Love was playing an underground beer pong game with some Russians he didn’t know and after throwing a tantrum because he lost, refused to drink with those commie bastards.
In other news, Udonis Haslem shot some pool with a friend. Udonis lost, but he was a good sport and didn’t break the stick over his friend’s head. He also drank a beer afterwards. News. Matters. Relevance.
