re: Ryan Anderson's girlfriend Gia Allemand dead

it's really annoying how some sites like TMZ (and some user comments) are already starting to hint the blame on their "rocky" relationship. it's a horrible situation all around and no one will know the truth. however that being said Ryan seems like a good guy and doesn't deserve that.
(btw I posted this in the O-T thread, but wanted this board to see it as well)
Gia was well known for dating professional athletes - Chris Campoli from the NHL (while she was on the bachelor show apparently), Carl Pavano from MLB, and now Ryan Anderson. according to this magazine interview she had a pretty bad relationship with Carl Pavano.


Gia Allemand, one of the final three ladies on "The Bachelor," has quite the history with former Yankees pitcher Carl Pavano.

in March 2007, Gia famously dumped Pavano right before he took the mound for the Yankees' opening day game. In a second Steppin' Out article, Gia told editor Chaunce Hayden:

"Carl and I are enemies. I hate him. And I never use that word. He's an a*****e! ... The time when I needed Carl the most he hasn't been there. Yea, I was the one that trained him and got him there all year I stood by him and didn't work so I can help him out, and he cheats on me. Nice right? Now that he's doing well he just thinks he can push me to the side. I have been nothing but there for him. I put all my dreams on hold so he can fix his career and now he's not there for me. He has bad karma. Anyone that can do what he did to me will get what they deserve ... I've been seeing my ex on and off for six years."

Gia's media assault on Pavano continued with an interview in the New York Post in which she characterized their relationship as being "as bad as Carl's pitching!"
