A very interesting piece of news is beginning to circulate. Apparently in 2004 during the birth of his first child, A-Rod's performance in the delivery room was so substandard that nurses were turning their attention away from his wife towards him.
November 18, 2004 was the date.
"“The one nurse had a cold cloth on his head. The other nurse had the blood pressure on his arm. And my mother was like rubbing his back. And he is passed out on a couch. And I am there, in the middle of labor,” said his wife. “And really, I am not being paid much attention to besides the doctor and a couple of nurses,” she said. “And he is there moaning. In between pushing, I am going, ‘Honey, are you OK?’ and ‘Are you breathing? Are you OK?’... In the middle of the night, I realized that I needed to go to the hospital. I wake him up. The first thing that comes out of his mouth, ‘Can we call your mother?’
I mean, I didn't really have respect for the guy before this, but now? PSH. Perhaps if the kid was born in May instead of the fall, his performance would've been better. A month after playing a pivotal role in the biggest collapse in baseball history when the Yankees blew a 3 game lead and allowed the Red Sox to take the series and become World Series Champions, A-Rod's autumn performances consistently stunk.
So again, as the leaves turn brown and begin to fall from the trees, the A-Rod that people know from April to September flips a 180, as does his performance. Boy, the richest man in baseball who people deem inaccurately as the best in the game just cannot get it done when it counts. Due to his lack of production, you'd probably think artificial insemination. But since the baby was born in November, that would make it February/March, when he can perform.
I just find it so incredibly funny that this story came out. As if he wasn't already fielding enough shots to his character and performance, does he really need his wife saying this on the YES Network?
