The case of the felonious fiancée

So it turns out that Cristal (actual spelling) wasn’t in it for the money.

Or so she says.

Cristal Taylor, formerly the alleged fiancée of Dallas Mavericks star Dirk Nowitzki, said in a jailhouse interview that she still loves the big guy “very, very much.”

Personally, I have my doubts. I think she was enamored of Dirk’s dough, but that’s just me.

Though it doesn’t matter what I or anyone thinks about this, because Cristal is going to be on the sidelines for a while instead of competing with Mark Cuban to be the most annoying person at a Mavs’ home game.

She facing a legal charge (or two), and she’s already a guest of Missouri taxpayers for the next five years due to a previous misunderstanding.

Poor Cristal. On the other hand (literally) she got to keep the $190K engagement ring that Dirk slipped on her finger one starry night.

That ain’t too shabby. And if Dirk is still burning the candle for her when she becomes a free woman, well, perhaps their love can blossom again like a long-dormant desert flower. Or something.

… You don’t think Dirk would be that dumb, do ya?
