Every now and then, the Harrogate likes to spread a little celebrity dirt. For such an occasion, this serves nicely.The New York Yankees third baseman, who earned his 12th All-Star selection Sunday, has refused to comment on his relationship with Madonna, who denied any romantic involvement with the slugger in a statement posted Sunday on people.com.
"The petitioner has exhausted every effort to salvage the marriage of the parties," Cynthia Rodriguez said in the filing. "However, Alex has emotionally abandoned his wife and children and has left her with no choice but to divorce him."
Rodriguez's attorney in Miami, Ira M. Elegant, said he had not reviewed the divorce petition but added: "As you know, anyone can pay the filing fee and make allegations."
Elegant also represents NBA star Shaquille O'Neal in his ongoing divorce from his wife, Shaunie.
Two points, here.
1)Damn, Cynthia, them's some strong words. Refreshing. Much better than the typical "irreconciliable differences" claptrap we usually get from the rareified people.
2)Et tu, Shaq?

Lay-off A-Rod. It is hard-work playing baseball in NYC. And when you have such a hard life, you need to take what ever measures you can to ensure your success.
And on top of it, the Yanks are no where near first place as they are 7.5 back after the team's win tonight. Can you believe that?
"Lay-off A-Rod."
That's what Cynthia said! (heh)
Harrogate has no serious problemo with A-Rod, although at times rhetorics about his place in MLB history can strike one as a more than a bit overblown.
Now Madonna, be she skank or be she victim of hyperbole and false accusation, at the end of the day she's in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. As well she should be.
Influence and Ethos count as much as anything in the Performing Arts. Her reach will continue for generations, and affect myriad musical genres.
