San Antonio Spurs guard Tony Parker married Eva Longoria ... because he could. My guess is she wasn't going to marry any old schlep, given that she is a very attractive and successful star these days. On the other hand, Tony Parker is no slouch either. As a professional basketball player who happens to be very good and fairly attractive, he can do alright for himself.
We discuss the ups and downs of his decision to marry Longoria in the video below:
What do you think you would have done in his position (or if you're a woman, would you be willing to get married to an NBA player who stands an excellent chance of cheating on you at some point)? Would you have kept playing the field or settle down with this hottie once you felt you found the right person?

1. No, I wouldn't. This is the ballbreaker who told an interviewer that her fiancee, the basketball player, had been with only one woman before her; so, she told the world, she, Princess Eva, is the Boss in the bedroom.
So, her future husband is less-sexually experienced, and is submissive in bed. You just don't say that about any man, even if it's true; but you especially don't say that about a man who spends a lot of time in a pro locker room.
I'd rather be married to an un-hot woman who doesn't go out of her way to humiliate and emasculate me in public.
What a bitch.

2. The woman talking in the video is a complete moron. What does Eva being hot have to do with why Tony married her? Seriously how old are you. So if a woman is hot, that's enough of a reason to marry her? Forget about the fact that you may not get along with her or even love her, her looks are all that matters. And how many Hollywood marriages fail, despite how attractive and wealthy the couple is? And guess what, Eva won't look like that forever. So I guess Tony should leave her then. And as for the guy who says Tony should get screw around, well maybe he's just a better, more mature person than you. Maybe he actually wants love and not a bunch of meaningless one night stands with annoying desperate girls hoping you'll want to date them. I guess Tony prefers a lifetime of happiness with a woman he loves, rather than quick sex with women who don't love you and only want your money. Yeah I'm sure he married "because he could" not because he actually loves her.

3. If you ever see Eva without makeup on and in normal clothes, you'll see that she is so heavily airbrushed in those images. She's under 5 foot tall and has the body of a 12 year old boy. I also don't think her face is that pretty. There are far more attractive actresses, even when they don't have makeup or airbrushing to help them.

4. Eva is a beautiful woman who fell in love with the Hollywood experience. She loves power, athletics, and she loves herself. She loves to be pampered. She loves to feel protected and important. She loves to be the center of attention. She loves to feel that her man is totally under her magical spell and completely trusting of her. In my opinion, she has it all. Would I marry Eva? I'd worship the ground she walks on even if that ground were me. I'd be lucky to have her, but I would never feel loved in return. Think about it. Her life revolves around her and maintaining power. If Tony wasn't playing basketball and winning, I think Mario would be all over her. Basketball beats dancing with the stars and broadway. I think Mario may have been a little too sensitive at one time. It's not about Mario, it's about what Eva wants. She's hot. Way to hot for a delusional chump like me. Way to go Tony. I wish you both the best. Be the best to each other.

5. Cenk,
As Judge Judy says, "Beauty fades. Dumb is forever." Eva may be hot today, but what will she look like in 20 years?
More importantly, how bright is she? I knew a lot of dumb, gorgeous broads, and I had no interest in them, and I would bet that Eva isn't all that bright. My priority was intelligence, and my wife is very intelligent, having just finished her MBA from B.U.

6. She married him on the *rebound*. She isn't over me yet.

7. I can honestly say I can't visualize who she is at the moment. I can't remember any movies she's been in, I don't know what she looks like or sounds like....so I'd have to say no, because she's a contemporary pseudostar who isn't actually talented or memorable...just a currently sexy body that sells tickets, which is all producers care about.

8. Better than Mrs. Hillbilly Clinton!

9. Oh! I forgot, at least Eva dosn't have tree bole legs and FAT ankles.
