It's almost impossible to understand the behavior of people who are so far outside the normal world.
No kidding. She’s about to get a $150m check for watching Blues Clues the last 20 years.
Well, she did help him through some hitting slumps over the years.

Don't let me get in the way of another thread of you [expletive] on women.
Angels slugger Albert Pujols is known for his home runs, but his wife Deidre Pujols is also a heavy hitter.

Instead of baseball, her playing field is philanthropy.

Among their endeavors is a program called “Strike Out Slavery” that calls attention to human trafficking. And after learning there was a need for a support system for survivors of vulnerable life situations including human trafficking, violence, homelessness and other forms of abuse and oppression, the duo formed Open Gate International, which provides vocational and life skills training.

The first vocational training offered by the organization is a 15-week Culinary Arts Program, accredited by the American Culinary Federation Education Foundation.

Now, Deidre and Albert have launched Open Gate Kitchen, a restaurant designed to give Open Gate students their first taste of real restaurant work.

Located in Costa Mesa inside The Hood Kitchen (a kitchen rental space for chefs and bakers), Open Gate Kitchen provides an invaluable apprenticeship to OGI graduates before they pursue employment in the restaurant and hospitality industries.

Abert pujols announced he and deidre pujols will be divorcing after 22 years of marriage, shortly after deidre underwent brain surgery to remove a tumor that was discovered in October of 2021 and there's a drive into deep left field by nick castellanos and that'll be a homerun. And so that'll make it a 4-0 ballgame.
LOL. Perfect.
Bravo!

granted it's his return and it's the home opener but also
Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol announced Monday that Pujols, who signed a $2.5 million contract to return to the club where he became a star, will be the designated hitter for his 22nd consecutive Opening Day start. That matches Hank Aaron and Carl Yastrzemski for second most behind only Pete Rose, who made 23 straight during his career.

will be very interesting to see how he's used. as an actual useful piece of a team or a prop for milestones, nostalgia and such. couple with all the legacy milestones yadi and waino can get...just think of all the giveaways of useless crap!

She also doesn’t believe in Albert’s hitting philosophy

Didn't she say it was disrespectful that the Cardinals only offered Albert a 5 year contract after 2011?
