Around SBN: NFL Players Ready To Welcome Gay Teammate

How a "Holler" Gave Us Kris & Kim

In their first television interview Tuesday, Kris Humphries and the missus didn't mention NBA free agency or the lockout, but he did provide details on how the two met nearly a year ago.

"I was playing for New Jersey last year," he told Jay Leno (implying that's in the past?).  While watching the Heat game on Halloween, Kardashian took an interest in him, he said. She then interjected that a friend told her that she knew one of Humphries' teammates, Jordan Farmar.

"So the next day," Humphries continued. "My teammate comes up to me and says, 'Am I your man, am I your man?' ' Guess who wants to holler at you? He actually used the word, 'holler'! 'Kim Kardashian'!"

And how did the Nets then third string power forward respond? "Uh, I dont know," he recalled saying, quickly adding "I didn't know much about her. I didn't know know how nice she is. Then I found out she was down to earth ...and I fell in love with her (kisses wife)."  Awww!  The couple will appear again at 4 p.m. Wednesday on "Ellen".

Do we have a video of just the interview yet?

I fell asleep right after the Leno monologue, delighted after watching the Yankees and The Grandy Man beat Detroit.

I wonder if Leno mentioned anything about his previous interview with Kim, when he “burned” Hump’s engagement ring on camera (after switching it with a fake).

Clearly there is a concerted effort (by the whole Kardashian clan) to distance Hump from the Nets, so as to improve his negotiating leverage. Kris Kardashian (Hump’s manager) must be behind this effort.
It may also be to “save face” in case Billy King chooses to spend his money on Nene first, with Hump being of secondary importance.

by jerry25 on Oct 5, 2011 6:56 AM EDT reply actions  

If the CBA rules stayed about the same, the Nets would be able to offer Hump more if he was signed last, because his cap hold is only about 6.5 million.

Also as Hump said previously, a lot depends on the CBA. He is right, because if free agency occurs in early January, as I predict, the Nets may have a different view of how to proceed.

"Down to earth"

Thats a crazier story of how they met

I saw it somewhere that Roddick checked out her pics in a SI mag and called his agent up to ask him to get in touch with her people.

Great story. I will try to remember to watch them on Ellen at 4PM today on CBS.

Hump Does look good in those pictures.
I could see more women thinking that their marriage will last, as a result of these interviews.

Kris may now have more in common with Kim than people think.
But still, I think Kim is also after those good Genes to pass on to her 1st child.

renewing their vows?

didn’t they get married like last week?

Hump is surprisingly great on TV. Great sense of comedic timing, he was funnier than Leno in that video.

And yes, I know Leno hasn’t been funny for 30 years, but still.

They both seem very dull. They both probably are. What does that matter in the scheme of things?
