The Chiefs and Their Squaws

Dwayne Bowe lets a rather large cat out of the bag
Posted by Mike Florio/NBC Sports

ESPN The Magazine has a feature called "Postcards from the Edge." In it, pro athletes provide anecdotes regarding their lives.

In the latest issue, which hits newsstands Friday, Chiefs receiver Dwayne Bowe possibly says too much.

"My rookie year, we were playing in San Diego," Bowe says. "You hear stories about groupies hanging out in hotel lobbies, but some of my teammates had it set up so there was a girl in every room. The older guys get on MySpace and Facebook a week before we go to a city; when a pretty one writes back, they arrange to fly her in three or four days in advance. They call it importing."

(The federal government possibly would call it something else.)

"Younger guys don't have the money to do it," Bowe added. "Anyway, these girls had the whole top floor. They know everything about us -- first and last names, sisters and brothers, salary. This one girl was talking to me like she'd known me for years. 'Hey, D-Bowe, how's Grandma?' I'm like, 'How do you know my grandma?' She knew that I talk about her every time I'm interviewed for a story.

"I told her I had a girlfriend, but she didn't care. She was wearing my jersey, sitting in my lap, making it look like we knew each other. Then she took a picture and put it on Facebook. That almost got me in trouble."

Bowe may have avoided trouble that time. But we've got a feeling that trouble will be finding him now.

Well it appears that Dwayne Bowe has replaced Riddick Bowe for the biggest nut punch of all time with this story. I'm fairly certain that the NFL (and the FBI for that matter) may want to look into what could be a classic example of old fashioned prostitution. You see Dwayne, it's okay to fly in a friend to watch a game and to have sex with that friend. But when there is an expectation of sex in exchange for travel accomodations, that's when you step out of bounds (pardon the pun). But I empathize with Dwayne. He just can't those hoes off his back.
