Groupies in the Shower


Sportsline's Gregg Doyel earns his paycheck with this story of groupies sneaking into the Mavs locker room after their Game 3 loss in Miami...

"These two women walked into the shower and stopped in front of the first player they saw, Mavericks reserve Marquis Daniels. Poor Daniels. He knew something was wrong. He also knew someone was naked. Himself. So he grabbed a towel, covering himself.

About that time, a Mavericks official noticed the two women in the shower and escorted them unkindly out of the locker room. The Mavericks official then berated the security guard standing watch outside the locker room door. The berating continued, off and on, for the next 10 minutes.

Inside the locker room, the Mavericks were shocked. And these are NBA players. It takes a lot to shock these guys. "I've heard of some crazy (stuff)," said Mavs guard Darrell Armstrong. "That's the craziest (stuff) I ever saw."

Doyel's amazing story goes on to tell of rookie Josh Powell having to turn his hotel room phone off because of constant phone calls from groupies and of Armstrong using aliases when checking in, aliases like Art Monk and John Riggins. All in all, just a terrific piece. Check it out.

And many high fives, forearm bashes and fist pounds to The Big Lead for making sure this story did not go unnoticed.

    i'm sure i'm not alone in my belief that this would make a far more thrilling feature film than "snakes on a plane"

    I'll be damned... I just used the search feature, and that's the first Zyklon B reference in this journal, ever.

    Try not to get involved in any shower business with Nowitzki... it could easily be Zyklon B time.
