Hank Baskett and Kendra get a reality show

010408eagles1_medium

Hank Baskett's fiance, Kendra Wilkinson, has been given her own reality show on E! called "Kendra." Hank will reportedly also be a part of the show.

The 23-year-old model-actress is engaged to Philadelphia Eagles receiver Hank Baskett, who will also be featured on the eight-episode series. The blond bombshell will learn to juggle her newfound domestic and wedding-planning responsibilities with her usual fun and uninhibited lifestyle.

Here's hoping it all works out well for Hank, but I certainly have made pretty clear my feelings on these types of distractions.

That said, this is clearly her show... I have a feeling he won't be a big part.

True

This is different than the Cowboys or TO having their/his own show. But still…

I hate reality shows with a passion

It is a producer’s dream… cast untalented nobodies, pay them nothing, and rake in tons of dough from simple-minded people. I can cut Hank some slack because it is not HIS show, but the fact that he is marrying someone who wants to be part of that whole culture is a little upsetting. with that being said… I don’t blame him one bit. Shes smokin hot. However, you will not catch me watching a minute of this because of my fear that Hank WILL be in the spotlight a lot leading to my distaste for a receiver who i have loved and trusted.

Yeah…I agree with ajay. Probably not a huge deal, but I don’t especially like it.

I wonder if I can bill Jeff Lurie and Peter Angelos for the years of therapy their teams are going to put me through.

But you gotta say

For an undrafted player out of New Mexico, he’s living the life!

i can’t see hank being a big part of this show. I’m sure that big red is already on his shit. If this even remotely turns into the hank baskett show, i’m sure hank will not be around much longer. the birds don’t fly with this shit

It's not like Hank is some superstar.

He’s a third string WR … if this was McNabb or Westbrook or DJ I might be concerned. Personally I think Hank Baskett is garbage.

The thing I worry about is once Suzy Rottencrotch has the cameras all around here again, she’ll be randomally showing up at practice, Novacare, ect. At that point, I’ll go postal.

Woah

That’s a little harsh: garbage? He had a pretty good year. He’s a terrific blocker, and for the first time in his career he actually played like he was 6’ 5". I think he’s got some potential and we should keep him around. He’s not a superstar, but he’s not garbage either.

When … when did he play like he was 6’5" … Hank Baskett is just a more liked Greg Lewis. He has a few big plays/catches a year and everyone loves him but what has he really done for this team.

Oh and Kevin Curtis caught a fade for a TD this year too …

this is true

Hank Baskett hasn’t shown me or the league anything worth hanging their hat on. Although, with girlfriends like that, I feel like I should have tried a little harder to be a mediocre talent.

Disagree

He hasn’t had many “big catches” in his career, but that’s not really why he is here. The Eagles don’t use him as that kind of receiver. They use him as a big body, a big blocker, and for important plays where big flashy superstar catches aren’t exactly what they need. A football team is like a toolbox. Some tools are always used and can fix almost anything. Hank Baskett is like an Allen wrench when you need to fix your bike because your car doesn’t work and you are late for a meeting.

My opinion is that he is an asset and certainly not garbage or “mediocre talent.”

whaaa?

I’ll agree with you on one thing … he is a tool.

guys calm down

this show is going to end up just like every other show on E! it’s going to get no hype, it will last 8 episodes, then everyone will forget it ever happened. I doubt this will be any kind of distraction. Hank isn’t a player to give up on. I think we’re all taking this a bit to seriously.

+1

Not really that big of deal and nowhere close to the circus that is the Dallas Cowboys.

Throw him the ball more! DBs won’t want to tackle him for fear of getting VD.

now it could just be due to poor picture quality, but it looks to me like she’s wearing a screen printed replica jersey… look at the numbers… you’d think that he’d at least get her a real jersey

LOL.

Maybe they refused to make a Baskett stitched one except through the NFL.com site. It’s not exactly like there are racks of real ones sitting in stores.

Lucky bastard

"Philly is a hot team now and they are playing well on defense, Donovan has managed the game well and I don't think there is any team out there ... I think they beat the only team out there that had a chance to beat them, and I don't think there is anybody out there that is going to beat them. I'm on their bandwagon and I'm picking Philly to win the whole thing." - Giants RB Brandon Jabobs

Single greatest thing I have ever read.

Just goes to show, look important and look like you belong and before you know it, you might.

Seriously?

Aren’t there enough crap shows in the world already?
