    at the very end


    Blind as a Bat

    We were pretty upset when this professional sports player decided to leave New York. We thought it was for more money, but we were wrong.

    For years this guy professed to have a "special relationship with God." But it turns out he had a special relationship with a woman who was not his wife. When the wife found out, she went ballistic. The player had two choices: stay in New York with his mistress, or return home and play with a new team.

    Wisely, he chose the latter, which was why you didn't hear the thunder that usually accompanies such transactions. His New York employer knew the score, and had to acquiesce. Sometimes being a sport is more important than playing one.

    ---------

    anyone else heard about this or is this pure tabloid gossip (aka NY being jealous)?

    I just fired off an angry email to the editor for printing this untrue tripe. Astros fans need to find out about this and boycott Fox News.

    The date on the article is 12/23, so it is a bit old and no other major news outlet apparently picked it up.

    This was all over the Yankees message boards when it came out. Even the bitter Yankee fans thought it was crap.

    I don't buy the mistress crap, but I have heard rumors (nothing substantial) that it was as much the wife as anyone that persuaded Andy to come back. This is second hand info. I live Deer Park, where Andy is originally from, and there are many people here who know him and his wife and have known them well for a long time. According to them, "Yeah, we all know who REALLY made the decision to come back to Houston." :)

    It was in the New York Post Page Six gossip column a while ago.


    I wouldn't discount it.
