I bookmarked your page. I’m searching for other blogs that have visitors that would find a benefit from a new site of mine on akita dogs. Let me know if you want to trade some posts or reviews. I figure we could both benefit.

A-roid is a jerk and deserves every negative blurb written about his sorry ass.

“Even her revelation that A-Rod financially supports the father who abandoned him gets criticized; she complains that the $2200-a-month retirement facility is in the same neighborhood as a trailer park and a strip mall, and that it is “20 miles and at least several tax brackets away” from A-Rod’s Star Island. But the assisted living facility looks pretty good to me – click here to see what the place looks like. Incidentally, Alex since has moved his father to an even nicer place, although Roberts didn’t appear to get to check if there were trailer parks in that neighborhood.”

My dad walked out on my mother and me. If he was on fire I wouldn’t pour a 99 cent bottle of water on him.

Supporting a cousin who has been in his life from childhood all the way through adulthood seems like a given since Alex financially supports his father who abandoned the family and him when he was a small child and with whom he only reconnected with recently as an adult.

Is this really true? Not arguing, just never heard that. If he is, damn that takes a lot of balls.

It’s true, a sportswriter who wishes to remain anonymous and fill column space told me.
I am turning off my sarcasm machine now.

(RR, maybe) Nope. That was his then brother-in-law whom he was also supporting.

The Daily News and it’s nefarious competitor Post use this gratuitous nonsense to become “New York’s #1 Sports Paper” by simply filling pages with specious nonsense.
Since I don’t know the family dyamics personally, I will say there is no reason to believe that ARod is not generous to those close to him. As well as your comment that it may have to be a walk-away in regards to distressed real estate, this article is just another take-s-slur at anyone but Jeter kind of imaginative journalism practiced by the local tabloids.
