  • Swim coach jailed for sexting ALL his contacts, blames his fat finger

    Doub, 24-year-old swimming coach Craig Evans had typed an intimate invitation to his girlfriend asking her if she would like to engage in sex with him ‘skin on skin’, when a slip of the fingers on his BlackBerry smartphone resulted in it going out to ALL the numbers on his phone. As well as having to deal with the humiliation of his family and friends reading the message (/invitation), Evan’s mistake led to far more serious consequences, when his hot message also found its way to two young schoolgirls apparently in his swim class, resulting in him being arrested and charged with causing or inciting a child to engage in sexual activity, and being jailed for 18 months. Sentence later reduced to nine months and then suspended, ‘given the unusual circumstances’ of him inviting everybody he knew for sex.

    Fans of Ryan Lochte, the Olympic swimmer, will be glad to know that he’s back to training more and working the red carpet fashionista circuit less, but he’s excited that he’ll be coming real soon in his latest Hard-Core video. That should go over well with all fans whether they like to work or just watch their idols getting sweaty doing it for them.

    Great news for especially iOS users, all 16 FINA / Arena 2012 World Cup final sessions will be streamed live on FINA TV, starting with the Dubai leg on Tuesday 2 October and ending in Singapore on Sunday 11 November, available also on your iPhone/iPad by using the free Live+ app from Digotel, with live timing service on Omega Timing. The schedule warns that ‘geographic restrictions may apply due to broadcasting rights’, and they’ll probably again this year delay the sessions until after the 800/1500, but it is sure better than nothing :-)
