Ticket guys, I think it was, said yesterday he was separated but not divorced (yet). Sounded like they thought a divorce was on the way, though.

OK, so I'm not crazy.

Sorry for jumping the gun, guys.

I was wondering if that was where you heard it too, because I know I'd never heard it before... Not that it's my business or I would care.

But they were approaching it from the same angle you are, that it might be harder for him to leave town if his kids are still here.

I only listen to the hardline essentially anymore who talked about it bob and dan? sounds like something they would talk about.

bummer for him if true, his wife it seemed was at every game and all they went through to have kids.

like you said though not our business although I do hope he wasn't playing house with a bunch of nookie girls.

if he was though zordon will be happy it means he is on his way to being a gangsta which we all know are the only types who win in the nfl.

It was the Musers.

That's what I was thinking. I honestly didn't remember for sure but they're about the only guys on that station I listen to semi-regularly.

Plus if I was half-awake that might explain why I don't remember...

But I was surprised at how matter-of-factly they said it, like it was sort of common knowledge. Again, I don't care about our players' personal lives so I thought maybe it had been out there and I just hadn't heard it.

thanks, I am off and on with listening to them in the morning so I didn't hear it.

I trust George dunham though and he would not talk about that kind of thing if he didn't hear it from a reliable source.

my only thing with that keeping him here is New Orleans is closer to his home in Alabama where both of their families are and
he knows rob ryan and sean payton. That to me is just as good a situation as here for him and his family.

So he's ordering jewelry not even 6 months ago for a woman he is no longer with, and per the earlier article going to events with her? Okay guys.

not that it matters but until we hear it from him nobody knows. I don't think it matters all that much in his decision personally.

It would be odd for George dunham to say that if he didn't know something though or he is just repeating the internet stuff.

So he's ordering jewelry not even 6 months ago for a woman he is no longer with, and per the earlier article going to events with her? Okay guys.

From that article:

Kim Gillespie says that in November 2010 the Cowboys’ all-time sack leader with the contract to matchhired him to “design a special order, one-of-a-kind bracelet for his then-wife Taniqua.” (The couple were the subject of this 2008 New York Times profile, following their decision to adopt a daughter following three failed pregnancies.) Gillespie’s suit says Ware “participated in the design process” and that the jeweler worked “for countless hours” to finish the job in time to make it the perfect Christmas gift.

Ware’s attorney says that’s not at all what happened.

“DeMarcus appears on this Inside the Huddle show, where this guy advertises a lot,” says McCathern. “He volunteers to make a bracelet for DeMarcus, and he thinks he can get DeMarcus to publicize his business. DeMarcus says, ‘I don’t wear bracelets, but you can make it for my wife.’ So he does it and publishes photos all over his website. Ultimately DeMarcus says he doesn’t want it, probably because he and his wife aren’t together anymore, and the guy says, ‘You have to pay for it.’ That’s the bottom line.”

It's his business. If they separated it has been within the last 6 months. I don't see that keeping him here.

Well, so it's in the Dallas Morning News, too. That's pretty good confirmation.

I won't make his decision, but it will matter in the decision-making process.

I meant "It" won't make his decision...

The wife no, but the kids are another matter. He would barely get to see them if he plays in another town. It would be the difference between seeing them multiple times a week, and being involved in day to day life, or seeing them maybe once a week for 5-6 months a year.

I think this will play a big factor in negotiations really. Especially if he is a committed father.

He's divorced. "100 percent" in the words of a personal friend of his.

So no, a certain person on here does not have "insider info".

This is completely a none issue IMO. If he is divorced, he would simply make arrangements to have the children stay closer to him at certain times of the year. It's not as if you have all kinds of time during the season anyway. If anything, it might be more appealing to Ware to relocate into another city, who knows?


The bigger driver in this would be the Tax situation in Texas as opposed to other states. That would serve as a greater incentive, IMO.

Stay closer to him, .. sometimes?

Where would that be, and who would that be with?

That would be where ever he decides to relocate, should he decide to relocate. The who with part could be family or a significant other or a hired staff or perhaps even an X wife. This isn't rocket science.

It would be odd for two people who tried over and over to have children finally have one of their own and then get divorced.

If I remember correctly his wife miscarried I believe three times? Then they adopted and then had a baby.

Doesn't seem like two people who have been together since high school would just give up on all that.

That would seem like a sensible read. But then again, it might also be the case that infertility issues and raising infants put a lot of strain on many relationships.
