A-Rod's Pissed

New York Yankees 3B Alex Rodriguez is pissed.  A-Rod is angry that he was seen being fed popcorn by his girlfriend (or whatever the fuck she is) and actress Cameron Diaz during the Super Bowl.  Rodriguez made the claim that he felt that the FOX videographer who caught the shot of the high-profile couple was acting like a paparazzo. 

Clearly A-Rod is not familiar with the practices inherent in live sports broadcasting.  It is common practice at any live televised event to show any celebrities present.  Comedian Jerry Seinfeld has been seen at many New York Mets games and the Yankees have no shortage of celebrity fans themselves.  Plus, it's the Super Bowl A-Rod.  This is no ordinary football game.  There's a lot of celebrities at Super Bowls, A-Rod should know that.  He should know it because he must have some shred of common sense.  He should also know that because he played in the World Series in 2009 and there were plenty of celebrities there also.

It wasn't as if there weren't other celebrities filmed during the game either.  The Peter Tomaino Axis of Evil (which includes former President George W. Bush and his wife, members of his cabinet such as Condoleeza Rice, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones and the overweight and undereducated John Madden) was shown several times and didn't offer any such complaints.  Tip:  If you don't want to get on TV then you probably shouldn't engage in erotic popcorn play with the chick from There's Something About Mary

Basically A-Rod, if you don't want to get on TV at the Super Bowl with your smoking hot girlfriend (yes Cameron, I'm available) then the solution is simple:  Don't go to the Super Bowl.
