This Is What We Like To Call A Hypocrite 



Remember a while back when Derek Lowe left his wife, Trinka Lowe, with whom he had three kids, for Dodger reporter Carolyn Hughes? Certainly Trinka must have hated Carolyn Hughes guts with a passion. In fact we know she did, as she called it "the worst time of my life." But no matter how much it hurt her, Trinka doesn't mind inflicting that same pain on others...That's because Trinka is now the "other woman" in a passionate love triangle.

Trinka appears to be the third wheel in former German soccer play Stefan Effenberg's second marriage.

According to the German newspaper Bild, Claudia high-tailed it to Hamburg after friends told her that her hubby has been spotted with Trinka in Florida. Or, as the Berliner Kurier put it, the ex-German National Teamer is suffering from “Too Much Blonde.”

According to Bild, at Christmas Effenberg promised his wife of three years to end his relationship with Trinka. And in January they went on vacation in an attempt to save the marriage.

“The discussions were personally very important for me,” Effenberg told the German press. “This separation does more pain to me than from my first (wife).”

But last week, friends reportedly told Claudia that Steffan and Trinka were still spending time together, and the angry missus declared she wanted a divorce.


No matter what the press says, Trinka denies that the two have anything more than a friendship...

Meanwhile, Derek’s ex, who has been dubbed “Tricky Trinka” by the German press, has told pals that reports of an affair are greatly exaggerated. “He is just a neighbor,” said Someone Close To The Matter. “She and her kids and he and his kids do things together sometime.”

Right. Just friends. I think Billy Crystal put it best when in Harry Met Sally he said, "What I'm saying is - and this is not a come-on in any way, shape or form - is that men and women can't be friends because the sex part always gets in the way." That is clearly the case here. And it is kind of sad that she just received $18 million in alamony from Lowe over Christmas, and this is how she acts.

“He is just a neighbor,” said Someone Close To The Matter.

What exactly is 'Someone Close to the Matter'?

Are we talking about like, the Gardener here or someones mother or the dude who sold them the house or what?

Or is it someone who is living in close proximity to a black hole or some other vessle that could reasonably be described as 'Matter'.

I'm very confused...

I had some sympathy for her after the Carolyn Hughes fling but now....not so much.

If you or the Boston Herald (or anybody else outside Germany, for that matter) had any idea how shoddy the German newspaper Bild works, you would not run with that story. Germany's most popular blog (Bildblog), does nothing else but publish corrections of factual errors of the paper every day. How do I know these things? I am German sports blogger based in New York writing for a German audience ( http://american-arena.blogspot.com ) with years of experience in German journalism.

Not to make this into big deal, but maybe you want to know the most famous moment in Stefan Effernbeg's career? Him giving somebody the finger during a World Cup match in the US in 1994. He was sent home and never played for the German national team again. The link to the image of this moment: http://www.world-cup-blog.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2006/06/wm1994_history_effenberg_stinkefinger.thumbnail.jpg

Eh, athletes' wives know what they're getting into when they marry 'em, for the most part.
