Taijuan Walker’s girlfriend Heather Restrepo just recently graduated from Western Washington University with a business and marketing bachelor’s, and she started a big long blog about her experiences with learning digital marketing. The blog itself is sort of like a journal for her future employers so that they can get a sense of what she knows about online and digital marketing. I read a bunch of it, and I think it’s more of a conceptual…
MLB Wives and Girlfriends (WAGS)
Dave Dombrowski’s wife Karie Dombrowski graduated from the University of Oklahoma in 1982 with a bachelor’s in journalism, and she quickly hopped on the real news reporting bus. She went from being a news anchor in Oklahoma City to becoming a sports reporter and face on television in Columbus, Ohio. That’s how she got hired for ESPN and became the very first anchor hired by them. It didn’t long before a sexual harassment suit was…
You may have heard about Jeff Bagwell’s girlfriend Rachel Brown getting publicly groped up by the Astros great. The video was pretty funny: she was doing a weird swimming pantomime while pushing the heads of the two guys she was with (Bagwell included). Bagwell then firmly grabbed her left breast and gave it a big squeeze. These kinds of things make for funny internet fodder, but the real story behind Rachel’s past doesn’t really involve…
About two years ago the NY Post put out an article about Jon Niese’s wife Leah Niese, and it featured a small bit of information about how she wears the same Mets underwear every time he pitches. The New York Post is not known for nabbing Pullitzers, people. I have to say, I thought this was a pretty weird piece of personal information. I mean, first of all, that underwear has got to be getting…
Randy Johnson’s wife Lisa Johnson has been married to him for something like twenty years, and met during a charity event when he was a youngin’ on the Montreal Expos. This was back in the raging 80’s, and the charity event had something to do with golfing. Lisa herself is 6’0″, though I suppose that’s kind of a strong characteristic to be coupled with a guy that’s 6’10”. Lisa married Randy in 1993 and had…
You know, the zoo seems to be a place where pro athletes go with their families just like regular people like you and me. Jose Iglesias’ wife Arlene Iglesias was there with him a week ago, bopping around with their son Jose Jr. They managed to take a pretty blah picture, but they’re all together so I guess it’s not blah to them (the least you could do is situate yourselves in front of the…
Jason Hammel’s wife Elissa Hammel joined as a guest commentator on the MLB Network to talk about making pork chops for Jason. Yeah, I guess they were running low on stuff to talk about, but she was there to give the recipe. Center cut pork loins, marinated in wine and spices 2-4 hours in the fridge minimum, and then you take them out and put them in a plastic bag with bread crumbs and parmesan…
