Partnership between Anthony, rocker Simmons is curious From: RockyMountainNews.com Considering the affinity each has for tongue wagging, perhaps a GENE SIMMONS-Michael Jordan union would seem more likely. But Simmons, the front man for the rock group KISS, has teamed with Denver Nuggets forward Carmelo Anthony to sponsor an IndyCar Series driver. The two are among those who have partnered with team owner Ron Hemelgarn to put rookie driver P.J. Chesson on the track this season. The team will debut March 26. So has Anthony begun to like the music of KISS? "Now I do," said Anthony, who said he got to know Simmons through mutual friends. "I never really listened to them (before). Just seeing their merchandise and listening to them here and there (has given him an appreciation)." Anthony long has had an appreciation for auto racing. That's why he has gotten involved in the project. "But I'm not getting behind the wheel," he said. Anthony wouldn't divulge how much money he has put into the team. There will be a news conference about his role Wednesday in Indianapolis, the day the Nuggets play the Indiana Pacers. |
