    You meant "being arrogant and annoying"?

    Dunno if you follow his instagram at all but his personal life quickly down-spiraled last year. He's going through a divorce right now and wants to still be a major part of his children's lives. Might be the only option interested in him, that doesn't require him to travel too far? Maybe he is hurting for money, but it looks like he is keeping his house since his wife is the one who cheated on him.

    Good point. Donovan could always have a Bestseller autobiography. Id figure Jones could always options in Germany in some capacity.

    yeah i dont know all the legal ramifications with a divorce but i knew a german woman who had a child with an american man and was basically stuck raising her daughter in the USA until she's 18....can be dicey....jj probably stuck in north america for a good bit

    I feel bad for the guy.....crazy that the joneses would be 5 kids in and have it fall apart so dramatically - that's a lotta kids to have before deciding nah i'm good.

    His wife is German too. That has no bearing on why he's here.

    his wife is insanely HOT. That has to be factored in. It is a bit different since I can't imagine many German women have more than 2 kids.

    well if she is US-based - as she is - yes, it does.

    For custody, as long as they both have some - then the other cannot be in another country basically. He could go to Germany and work and live sure but would be giving up on having a role in his children's lives....

    Donovan's wife is from very rich family, probably doesn't need that house. Do you have a link to that story? I've never heard it.

    He was referring to Jones.

    Interesting. I wouldn't have pegged him as the coaching type.
