A-Rod: It’s no distraction

They just turned the media loose on the AL All-Star team. There are mostly regular baseball writers asking about the game, but there are also assorted dopes who ask stupid questions. It’s nowhere near as bad as Super Bowl Media Day, but baseball tries. The only good thing is the quantity of hot TV babes increases dramatically at these events.

Alex Rodriguez had waves of reporters around him. Somebody, of course, asked the Madonna question. A-Rod actually answered it.

“Everybody has distractions and personal issues,” he said. “Mine just happen to be on the front page.”

Rodriguez then spoke about his experiences at Virginia Tech and meeting with John Challis, the terminally ill kid from Pittsburgh. It was a very good answer.

    Madonna isn’t a known homewrecker..she’s alot of things but not a homewrecker. :lol:

    More like Madonna is a truckstop than home wrecker.

    Boooorrrrrinngggg!!! The All-Star Game ranks up there with State of The Union addresses. Yawn-inducing.

    Good answer by A-Rod! Seriously though, what did you expect?

    I don’t believe the Madonna stuff. Even his wife says it wasn’t a physical affair.
    Anyways it was a smart answer and keep it up. Don’t give the tabloids anything.
