Kind of selfish of Tony/Eva...they can't take 1 day away from their honeymoon?

This thread will no doubt come to a civil and intelligent conclusion.
I don't think it unreasonable to want to spend the entirety of your honeymoon undisturbed.
Tony and Eva have and no doubt will continue to help with several good causes.
I am glad they are taking this time for them.
Leave him alone - would you come back early from your honeymoon for a basketball game? Tony and Eva have had their wedding date set for quite a few months now - and the article states the NBA was TRYING to get the game scheduled.
These players do a lot for charity - they should also be able to have some personal time - after all, you only have one honeymoon and there will be plenty of other opportunities for charitble events!
tony deserves time to just like you
Let's see, honeymoon with Eva Freaking Longoria versus damn near anything else...
hmmmmmmm......
TOUGH call.
Good point. Charity games come around all the time. You only get married two or three times.

Honeymoon cancels game
Rockets center Dikembe Mutombo said the charity game he arranged for July in Paris has been canceled because Spurs guard Tony Parker will be unavailable to play after his wedding to actress Eva Longoria.
The NBA was working to sanction an All-Star game on July 15 in Paris with several NBA stars, including the Rockets' Yao Ming, playing against Parker and the French team. Proceeds were to benefit the Biamba Marie Mutombo Hospital and Research Center in Kinshasa, Republic of Congo, which is to open later that week.
"Tony is going to be on the honeymoon, and the French Federation says if Tony Parker will not play, the game cannot happen," Mutombo said. "Everybody said yes, but Tony cannot leave the honeymoon to come to play. I don't know his fiancée, so I don't know how to talk to her."
Mutombo said there have been preliminary talks about moving the game to Germany and featuring Dirk Nowitzki.
I think that is a very unfortunate and short sighted decision by the French Federation."Tony is going to be on the honeymoon, and the French Federation says if Tony Parker will not play, the game cannot happen," Mutombo said
If anyone should be faulted it is them.
Tony could lend his support to the game by publicly endorsing the game and it could still flourish, even in his absense.
So what have you done lately to make the world a better place?
I wonder why they just can't pick another date to have it if his presence is mandatory?
Because everyone else has something better to do?
Damn, what a predicament for Parker.Haha, yeah they should just move the date of the game if they want Parker so bad.
ho hum -wasting time on celebrity gossip, can it get better than this?
Just another example of "thuggish" Spurs' behavior. Unbeavable.
no it's not the story! mutombo and the french federation wanted a game but parker has always said he will go in french team the 21th july after his honeymoon
I'm sort of annoyed by this. The wedding date has been set for awhile. Why don't they get to honeymoon? Why can't the French team play without them? Why did Dikembe make this public? That's the part that bothers me. If Tony was just blowing it off, that would be one thing. But it's his honeymoon - that seems like a legitimate excuse. And speaking as someone who had a very shortened honeymoon (much of with was spent entertaining wedding guests who stuck around), I would really encourage everyone to take a long, uninterrupted break and settle into their marriage.
After the wedding, the Parker household will have five rings more than any Mav.
@ Johnny and Chumpdumper
How shortsighted. Leave Parker and Eva alone.
Why, I believe those were Tony's exact words when he proposed.
Kobe prefered to rape a girl over his wife.
So, let me get this straight...Tony wants to get married AND have a honeymoon? What's next? <GASP> kids??!!? For shame!
Seriously though...what was this?
Mutombo said. "Everybody said yes, but Tony cannot leave the honeymoon to come to play. I don't know his fiancée, so I don't know how to talk to her."
So, if he knew her, he would've really asked her to change their plans for this game??
I am old fashioned maybe. But I believe in marriage. I am one year difference than Tony, and am with a girl that would marry me someday. Your girl comes first, on top of being rich, and the whole you can reschedule the game thing, it's not even a contest.
Anyone making a big deal of it is stupid. Eva may be Hollywood and they break up in a year, then I might say something different. But for the sake of their life together leave it the alone.
