Lamar Odom's recovery, sadly, means more of the ugly reality of the Kardashians

The news about Lamar Odom was finally good. A week after being found unconscious in a rural Nevada brothel, the former Lakers and Clippers star was stable enough to be flown Monday night from a Las Vegas hospital to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

Yet the news about Odom was still unsettling, because accompanying him on that flight was one of the Kardashians.

As one of the many media members who fell in love with Odom's sweet soul during his 12 seasons as a pro baller in Los Angeles, I watched in sadness last week as he fought for his life after being found unresponsive in a brothel.
