Have you heard the story of New York Jets cornerback, Antonio Cromartie?  Sure he’s a decent cornerback buts its his off the field “antics” of which perhaps he’s become most infamous.  Cromartie might just be the only NFL millionaire that truthfully could qualify for public assistance.  He’s the father of nine children with eight women in six states.  So it was only a matter of time before one of the eight baby mommas would announce the release of a tell all book.

However as his ex-fiance, Rhonda Patterson tells the New York Post the book isn’t designed to bash Cromartie and doesn’t even mention his name in the book entitled, “Love, Intercepted: A Tale of Football, Falling and Failing in Love”.  Instead its described as a tale about her relationship, a bad romance and the lessons learned.

“It goes nameless because the story is bigger than him,” Patterson told The NY Post. “This is not a book to bash him. It’s meant to help women avoid making the same mistakes I did.”

This whole Cromartie not being named bit is very funny to me.  Am I supposed to believe that someone is going to pick up this book and make it an eventual Best Seller because it was written by Rhonda Patterson?  No, people want to read it because of the hype surrounding shows like Basketball Wives and The Real Housewives Franchise. Cromartie is the story regardless of whether he’s named in the book or not.  He’s the reason anyone even cares so choosing to omit his name from the book while on the surface might endear Patterson to some in the end its irrelevant because the cat is obviously out of the bag.

I mean I’ve gotta question if her motive really even is to educate and help other women in similar positions when she goes off topic during the interview to share intimate details about their sex life.

“I will give it to the man — he’s talented, well endowed, and . . . it was truly the best sex I’d ever had,” she writes. “He was one of those lovers who would caress you, stroke your hair . . . look you in the eyes and ask you to have his child. I thought his asking me to bear his child meant he loved me.”

I hate to no be sympathetic to these type of women but I can’t.  If you’re intelligent enough to realize that being with a ball player can improve your social agenda and elevate your status then you’re smart enough to know the pitfalls that come with it.  What do you think when you meet a guy on Facebook.  I can’t have sympathy for you especially when you’re baby mother number 5 or 6 or 7.

Patterson and Cromartie ended their rocky relationship days before their $200,000 wedding and before the birth of their first child, his sixth.  The relationship was riddled with reports of infidelity, STDs and a report she she found sex toys one day while snooping around.  Eventually Cromartie would kick HER out of his San Diego home to raise their child without her.  Until its in stores, the book is being sold at www.shpbooks.com if you really need it.
