People like to talk shit about social media and all the ills it’s perpetrated on modern society, but occasionally we’re forced to recognize that Twitter and Instagram are capable of doing good. Like when they help scorned women expose the philandering professional athletes who run around on them.
Warriors sharpshooter Klay Thompson knows what we’re talking about. The 25-year-old has been dating Instagram pro Hannah Stocking for about a year now and over the weekend she aired some dirty laundry that would have never found an audience without Twitter.
And now we know he’s a cheater.
This seems like a good time to offer some advice to guys like Thompson and Victor Cruz, who found himself in a similar situation last week. So here it goes: If you want to sample from the buffet of women willing to throw themselves onto a professional athlete’s sheets, by all means, do it. Just don’t tell one of them you’re finished eating and secretly keep re-filling your plate. That makes you an asshole. And if the girl looks like Stocking, it makes you an idiot too.
