Categories: Famous People are Idiots, Most of the Time

You saw this, right? OK. Maybe not. Maybe you shut off the teevee before the fourth quarter. Maybe you threw it out the window. Maybe you shotgunned the sumbitch. So maybe you missed seeing Owen Wilson -- good ol' Dallas boy, fer Chrissakes -- cheering on the Golden State Warriors. Maybe you missed seeing The Butterscotch Stallion and his huggy bear Kate Hudson going apeshit over Baron Davis' Golden State shower of threes drowning Your Dallas Mavericks. Hell of a way for a boy from Dallas to act. Hell of a way to support the home team, even if they didn't deserve it.

And, yeah, we're well aware of the fact Owen's drinking buddies with Don Nelson. And, yeah, we know Owen wanted Nellie to be in some movie he was making. "He had a part for me," Nelson recently told the San Francisco Chronicle. "I was going to be a school principal." Effin' traitors, the whole lousy lot of ya. --Robert Wilonsky

Drew says:

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Yeah bandwagoners suck... but so do the Mavs. Hope you have fun watching the Warriors in the second round.

Michael Christie says:

I like these bro's, they at least return to a non-hip, un-urban wanna be "city" that cant even keep a Hard Rock Cafe, less can be said about the Mav's fans who sat silent during the final 3 in game 4, talk about a bunch a fair weather johnsons, who in the AA thought they would win game 5, for loves sake, the guy's got the huevos to stand by his gal, especially in the biggest post season bail in NBA history, he pays taxes in CA, not TX.

DNey says:

Are you sure he was cheering? I saw that one part too, but it looked like he sat down when the ball went in, like he was going "Aw, damn!" He sure isn't smiling in that picture.

And the Warriors rule.

Drewbanger says:

I didn't see the game, but in that screen grab, Wilson seems to be in disbelief, or yelling "NO!!"

Youtube link anywhere?

A lot of men would likely swing both ways when they're sleeping with Kate Hudson. (Huh?)

Andy says:

I was watching the game and I could have sworn his reaction was more one of disbelief than anything else. And I'm not defending the guy, I really don't care either way.
