Police have recommended to prosecutors that Portwood, 20, be charged with two felony counts and one misdemeanor for allegedly attacking Shirley three separate times from August 2009 to July 2010.

It looked like they were playing a game with the basket.
The most shocking part about this is it seems that Mr. Shirley thinks a career in show biz is going to spring out of his sperm donation.

Why not? Look at all the other reality shows out there because others had a zillion kids. Apparently that is all you need to be, a sperm donor, to get into show business.
