Carrie Stoudemire Tries to One Up Gloria James

Amare Stoudemire’s mother is facing jail time for driving under the influence and crashing into a barricade last October.

She was charged with two counts of DUI and also handed the police a fake driver’s license. A fake ID. College kids carry fake ID’s when they go to sleazy bars but you have to be pretty bombed to hand one over to an officer of the law.

Stoudemire was also arrested in 2003 for driving under the influence and then again in 2004 for shoplifting. Sadly, having too many drinks and then attempting to drive is all too common. Providing a fake ID to police is sheer stupidity. But stealing $1100 worth of clothing makes me think that she is a legitimate criminal. Your son has more money than he knows what to do with and your shoplifting? Unreal.

As most people know, Mrs. Stoudemire joins Gloria James (LeBron’s mom) as mothers that completely embarrass their high profile sons. James was arrested in January - also for DUI - and then proceeded to kick out the window the police car that she was sitting in. Also unreal.

It’s nice to know that Amare and LeBron at least appear to have turned out to be normal, decent men despite the presence of their obviously psycho mothers.

I wonder who would win in a fight.
