    Parker Getting Used to Wedding Ring

    By ELIZABETH WHITE, Associated Press Writer

    SAN ANTONIO — With all the hardware Tony Parker has racked up over the past several years playing for the NBA champion San Antonio Spurs, it's the latest addition to his collection _ his wedding ring _ that's on his mind.

    Parker, just back from a honeymoon with actress-wife Eva Longoria, said the band will take some getting used to.

    "It's weird, it's weird," Parker said Tuesday night. "I don't wear rings. ... The only ring that I was wearing is our championship rings, but you only wear that maybe two times, three times maybe. So I have to get used to it."

    Parker, 25, and Longoria, 32, married in a civil ceremony July 6 in Paris. The next day, a priest married them in a church across from the Louvre Museum, followed by an exclusive bash at a storied French chateau.

    Parker said it was only on his recent honeymoon that he was able to reflect on what has been a banner year. Parker won his third championship with the Spurs, was named MVP of the finals and then exchanged vows with "Desperate Housewives" star Longoria.

    "I can't complain. I feel very blessed. It was an unbelievable year for me and for the team. And it was just great. It's hard for me to put (in) words and explain," said Parker, who was at a premiere party for a DVD chronicling the Spurs' run to their fourth championship in nine seasons.

    "When I was on the honeymoon I finally sat down and tried to realize what we accomplished, and me personally. But it's still hard. I just think I'm going to realize that later on. When you look at your career, I'm going to say, 'Man, 2007, it was a great year,'" Parker added.

    Parker said Longoria _ in a silk wool and silk gazar scoop-back mermaid gown embroidered with silver metallic designed by Angel Sanchez _ looked "amazing" and "beautiful" on their wedding day and that the event was unbelievable.

    Besides his ring, Parker is also getting accustomed to the ever-present paparazzi.

    "It's not like Brad Pitt, or Britney Spears. It's not that bad. And when we're in San Antonio it's OK," he said. "It's more for Eva, it's not me. I'm just there holding hands, they take pictures. It's her world."

    And as for his ring, Parker said he'll do his best to keep track of it before and after games.

    "A lot of my teammates told me they lost it like five or six times," Parker said. "So I'm going to try to lose it only one or two times."

    You would think the team could organize a guarded strong box to put everybody's valuables in during the games.

    Even though, it's getting ridiculous.

    This is more about the Celebrity status of Parker and Eva rather than the Spurs/NBA. I mean if you read a General Interest Magazine AKA Celebrity lives it's filled with useless . I.E Matthew Mcahogaigay's working out, Simon Cowell's trip to Baskin and Robbins.

    I'm quoting the people that say this is a stupid article and Spurs fans should get over this and I'm explaining why they're articles like this, because people have boring lives and need to be entertained by other peoples lives.

    Defensive much? What, news day is so slow, the NBA offseason so uneventful and the world so uninteresting that one just MUST talk about something as mundane and uninteresting as Tony Parker and Eva Longoneria's wedding?

    Not once, not twice, not even three times, but 15+ times?! Some writer got paid to "report" that he is getting used to his f-ing wedding ring?!

    Am I the only one who finds this odd? That people actually have a passing interest in the soon-to-be-ugly-divorce of an NBA player and washed-out "actress"?

    To go so far as to post wedding photos, quotes from some jerk-off at the wedding, a breakdown of what she wore, etc??!!

    Are you all lonely housewives with paid subscriptions to People and Star magazine or something? I mean, are your lives that empty of meaning and introspection that you derive some modi of meaning vicariously with this rubbish?

    Im just wondering to understand what kind of sheeple I am dealing with here.

    I'm gonna wait for in depth Larry King followup regarding whether or not they had to go get the rings re-sized. I heard TP cries when asked about the ordeal he went to in order to find parking outside of the jewelers shop.
