This is gonna be ugly no matter how it plays out. Even if Wayne is completely innocent his name will be connected to his wife. Who he absolutely has failed to defend at this point, suggesting that he knows she's guilty and doesn't want to be seen as helping her avoid the firestorm coming down on her ass...

Of course if Wayne is more involved than that, he's toast, burnt toast

Gretzky is in his third year of a 3 year contract with Ford of Canada (IIRC) and its questionable whether or not he has made an impact on sales ... after all, Ford of Canada market share has fallen in each of those three years. Most dealers will tell you that they wasted their money on him.

If I was a bettin' man I'd wager he's done with Ford at the end of his contract (or Ford done with him) ... and if this gambling thing turns real ugly for Wayne, I think Ford has a morality clause in these types of contracts that allows them to basically fire him as a spokesman.

what his wife does is none of his business, if she's found guilty don't bring him down with it too. You have this issue to deal with and now one of canada's olympic goalies has tested positive for drugs.... he claims it's a hair growing product :ph34r:

I can see the commercial's tagline now:

Wayne Gretzky saying,

"You can bet on a Ford"

All and all I raise a drink to any guy who married a PlayBoy model.

The old Coot (now dead) who married Anna Nicole Smith is my greatest hero of all time. There's a man with priorities and goals in life!

NOTE TO SELF: ONCE YOU TURN 92 AND AM A MULTI BILLLIONAIRE MARY A PB MODEL WITH A HUGE RACK, who cares if she is mental or "USING" you, it's all good.
