Dallas Mavericks star Dirk Nowitzki knows how to lose the bitter taste of defeat -- simply knock back a bottle of tequila two days after getting knocked out of the NBA playoffs.
Dirk stuck out like a sore thumb Saturday night at LIV nightclub in Miami -- where the 7-footer was photographed drowning his sorrows while towering over several intrigued woman.
Just like tequila ... getting knocked out in the first round of the playoffs can be hard to swallow.

Unless he's assaulting someone or supposed to be playing the next day, a sports star partying isn't news.

I am sure the woman surrounding him are thinking, he is the biggest sucker in the world, and they are dreaming of how to get some of that NBA money.
I can't believe Dirk was engaged to that multiple identity, frauding, groupie. Did he think to himself, well she puts out on the first encounter, she must be the one.

We pay our sports figures millions and millions of dollars, and the youth of the country look up to them constantly, as role models, yet these guys can't keep alchohol and/or drugs out of their bodies for the few years they are "up on the pedestal". Not to mention so many of them can't keep their zipper zipped. They should be THANKFUL for what they have been given and keep their partying PRIVATE for the few years they will be in the limelight.

Just watching that picture makes me want to gag. How people can down hard liquor is beyond me? They might as well put gasoline in the bottle, it smells and probably tastes the same.
