A weak man, not worthy of our respect

Carpundit is disgusted that Johnny Damon dished on his breakup with his first wife in his new book:
... I have been married twice, so I know how hard marriage and divorce can be. And I know how bitter the feelings can be on both sides. But a father - no, a man - keeps his mouth shut about his ex-wife, the mother of his children, unless he is complimenting her for her mothering. A man doesn't impugn his ex-wife's character as a woman, as a wife, as a homemaker, as a professional. If he has negative thoughts, he shuts the hell up. Johnny Damon failed that test of inner character.
Johnny Damon is a weak man, not worthy of our respect.

Got to wonder also about the editors and publisher (of the book, not the Herald) who let this get into print.

I agree with the post ---- I loved Johnny Damon, but his own words reveal him to be a weak, immature, self-centered adolescent-minded jock. It's all about him. Goes to give the accepted meaning to the word "idiot." But he's still a good ball player.
Impressive

So typical, to blame your spouse for "making" you cheat. I have long held that Damon wasn't the brightest star in the sky, and this doesn't disprove it. He's cute, he plays good ball, but I find brains much sexier than biceps.
Does anyone out there actually believe he didn't hook up with his current wife before splitting with his wife? I have some swampland to sell you.
