Julianna strikes again

[Sammy Sofa]

Yeah I can be a little trigger happy on making jokes about people's misfortunes (you have to laugh, right?). It's a bad situation and hope the kids are ok and it can be settled relatively painlessly. But at the same time, cmon, that story is insane.

 

Totally. Again, these are famous, rich, super religious white people. I get wanting to be sympathetic, but let's face it: these sorts of people almost always suck. And, if we're being honest, those kids have about a 97.8% of growing up just as shitty, if not shittier.

97.8% before all this. An absolute lock at this point.

But seriously, when are the Righteous Gemstones coming back?

In divorce documents, Ben Zobrist says Julianna ‘coaxed’ him into returning to the Chicago Cubs, while she requests $4M of the $8M he forfeited while on leave

 

Just when I thought I couldn't think any less of Julianna...

LMAO, the filing says he intentionally went 'from the top of his game' to not playing. Ben's Baseball-Reference page can be used as exhibit A to refute that one.

I hate how all of this is so public too...just a shitty situation all around.

So dumb question...why is it so public? I am sure MLB players get divorced all the time, why is this one so much more public than others

They were both celebrities, they both went overboard about how "Christian" their lives were, the other guy is a minister, etc.

Imagine being a horrible enough person that you demand another 4 million dollars because the husband that you cheated on took a leave from work due to the stress that you created by cheating on them. That's a next tier trash move.

Also making him go to counseling with the man you are cheating with. That's some next level horsefeathers.

That part is confusing; the articles I read make it sound like they definitely went went to counseling after she told him she was having an affair...but did she not tell him who with? They're vague on that part. Zobrist seems like a dope and a half, so who the horsefeathers knows.

 

Also: "Pastor Yawn" still will never not be horsefeathering hilarious.

This is why the divorce is more public than most; the press is loving the salacious details. More clicks, baby!

[Sammy Sofa]

It's an awesomely juicy gossip story about two ridiculous public figures. Trying to frame it like "the press" are somehow reaching for clicks seems like a bit of a stretch.

And the reason why anyone knows any of the details is because of...

 

You're right... it is an awesomely juicy gossip story. That's why the divorce updates keep coming. I know David Ross is divorced. But I had to look it up; it was just last year. If it was reported in the media, it probably garnered a couple paragraphs, tops. It's not a reach at all to think Ben's divorce proceedings are "click bait" given some of the information that's come out already.

Celebrity divorces have been huge public stories since long before some [expletive] thought of the term clickbait.

I think you're applying "celebrity status" to Ben and Julianna a little too liberally. Maybe that's just me. Personally, I think more people know more about them because of the details of the divorce than they did before this.

Because it's a ridiculous story, and ridiculous celebrity gossip has been a thing forever.

 

"Clickbait" would be, "You'll Never Believe the Insane Details of David Ross' Divorce!!!!" and then the actual blog or article or whatever pulls a bait and switch and it's just about the boring David Ross divorce we never really heard about because it was so boring and involved David Ross, who is history's most boring monster.

Julianna has a healthy Instagram following so that’s part of it

People like hearing stories, why is it that they have to be fictional? It completely makes sense that people want to hear about his.

Some of what I do involves promoting Christian concerts. I’ve asked some of those people about it as a Cubs fan and they know nothing of her. She is non-existent in those circles. She is only Instagram famous.
