Reigned Out

Shawn Kemp, a former All-Star for the Seattle Supersonics, is in trouble again.

The increasingly sad and bizarre Shawn Kemp story continues in this column by the P.I.'s Robert L. Jamieson:
The big city sports star was lost in a constellation of booze, clinging to a fraying string of fame.

"Don't you know who I am?" he asked a woman who happened to sit next to him in a Belltown bar a few months ago.

The pretty woman shook her head.

"I'm the Reign Man," the gentleman boomed, a bucket hat slung low over his head like an uneasy crown.

"The weather man?" replied the woman. She thought the guy was a meteorologist or something.

Read the rest here.
I am so depressed. If this keeps up, we're going to be talking about how levelheaded Danny Fortson is!

In related news, it turns out Kemp got busted about a mile away from my house. I can't believe he was in my neighborhood and didn't even stop by - how rude!
