A-Rod Is Morphing Into Jose Canseco
What’s the most important part that’s being left out of the whole Madonna/A-Rod alleged affair? How about that Madonna has previously been linked to a baseball player before…let’s see, that’s been laying around here for a while…there it is (opens old and yellow newspaper):
Jose Canseco says his late night get-together with rock star Madonna was an innocent one.
“We’re just friends,” the Oakland Athletics’ outfielder told reporters traveling with the Athletics for their weekend series with the Yankees. “She’s a nice lady.”
Canseco, who recently reconciled with his wife, Esther, was photographed coming out of Madonna’s apartment building in New York early Friday morning.
Canseco wouldn’t say how long he has known Madonna. “Just say we met before,” he said.
That little bit of information was, shockingly enough, from a 1991 New York Times article. What does this tell me? It tells me that of all the people in the world to imitate, A-Rod seems to be dead set upon trying to steal Jose Canseco’s life. First he allegedly hits on Canseco’s wife, then he’s linked to steroids (still don’t buy that one), then he’s caught with a stripper, then he’s caught coming out of Madonna’s apartment. For God’s sake Alex, what’s next? Shooting roids into Jason Giambi’s naked behind? 120 mph driving a Ferrari with a loaded gun in it?
Don’t answer those questions. But, if a pop-up hits him in the head at third base and bounces into the stands; all bets are off.
