Kendra Wilkinson, the Padres only Celebrity Fan

by jbox on Apr 22, 2008 1:50 PM PDT Comment 26 comments

... we'll take it! Playboy confirms that Kendra will be throwing out the first pitch at a Padres game this season.

I love this interview with Kendra:

Ask Kendra: Who's going to win the World Series this season? Can anybody take on Boston? She may not know the answer to that, but she knows whom she's going to route for! See much more of Ask Kendra and the other girls at http://www.playboy.com

They even spelled "root" like "route", gotta love it. Go Padres! 1992!

TVGuide.com: Is the fact that your mother was a cheerleader for the Eagles part of the reason you got into sports?
Kendra: That’s not the reason, just a fun fact. She was an Eagles cheerleader back in the '70s and my whole family is from Philadelphia, and when my mom moved to San Diego I was born there and I grew into the Chargers. You can't always go back east, so I might as well root for the local team. I was actually more of a baseball and Padres fan when I was younger.

VIII. Chargers at Steelers -- Sunday, Nov. 16
Pittsburgh's offensive line could struggle with San Diego's pass rush. But then they would also struggle with San Diego State's pass rush.

Actually

I was watching the Padres/Dodgers game that was on Fox and found out that NASCAR’s Jimmie Johnson is a Padres fan. So I guess that makes two celeb fans.

Jimmie Johnson

went to Granite Hills High School with Brian Giles.

Don't forget Donal Logue

He sat behind home a season or three ago and I posted about it in a game thread. I’ll see if I can track him down.

that lasted for a minute… good work on the “I Love The…” series, too.

Half right.

Jimmie Johnson did go to Granite…but he was there with Marcus Giles. Brian and I were in the same class (‘89).

So now you're claiming to be Jimmie Johnson

now I’ve heard it all!

If you can play LF for the Padres...

...AND hit a homer off of Randy Johnson…then I can drive a car in a circle over and over.

Touchdown Tommy Vardell was in there, too, wasn't he?

Maybe a yr or two ahead?

by Winfield's Ghost on Apr 23, 2008 6:10 AM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

Two years ahead.

He was amazing to watch play running back. Not so much in the NFL, though.

about Karen Kay of Fox Sports Radio’s The Third Shift.

On the other hand

There are some flattering pictures of her in an LT jersey. Here’s one that’s safe for work. Basically.

Too late.

There’s no way to redeem yourself from Dodger love… unless you’re Christina, in which case, you are commended for seeing the light.

I don't know if he qualifies as a celebrity...

since he is an athlete too…. but Phil Mickelson was at the game last Thursday night with his kids. Didn’t see his wife, though… too bad.

Is he actually

a Padres fan? ...or was he just there?
