Dominican Baseball Cheerleaders Get Lit Who knew Dominican baseball teams had cheerleaders? You learn something new everyday. Check out this viral video of a scantily clad cheerleader in Santiago clapping her cakes on top of the dugout between innings. Should Major League teams in the U.S. consider doing the same?
It’s a day many fans of The Real Housewives of Atlanta never dreamed they would see: NeNe Leakes and Kim Zolciak have buried their very contentious habit. The two are BFFs again!!! “Just had the best chat wit @Kimzolciak!” Leakes Tweeted yesterday. “Now I see @BrielleZolciak is following me! I just pulled off the road 2 cry. This is 2 much.” Added Zolciak of the chat between close pals-turned-enemies: “My heart is at such peace @neneleakes best chat ever! See u soon! #onwardandupward.” Season 2 of Kim’s spinoff, Don’t Be Tardy… , premieres April 16 on Bravo. And now the reality star has a second reason to be thrilled, as she just could not contain herself on Twitter: “I must say I am very happy too that @neneleakes and I had a heart to heart! We made a pact!” And we’re sure that pact has nothing at all to do with ratings.
The Houston Astros will open the season this Sunday, making their first appearance as an American League team after switching from the National League during the offseason. While the switch allows them an extra hitter in the form of a DH, nobody expects that to matter. Why? Because the Astros have the lowest salary in baseball. Their salary is so low, in fact, that injured third baseman Alex Rodriguez is making more than the entire team in Houston! And he may not even see the field this year! Yikes! A-Rod is the highest-payed player in the Majors, and he plays for the New York Yankees, who have had the biggest salary in baseball for fifteen years running! In fact, the Yankees have four of the top six highest-payed players on their roster, with a projected total salary of $228 million, compared to the Astros’ measly $25. The Yankees tried to void A-Rod’s contract of $29 million per year after he was under investigation for PED use. But that didn’t happen, and now Rodriguez is on the disabled list while his hip surgery recovery will keep him out for at least half the season. So the Yankees are paying almost 10 times more for their team than the Astros! Is this getting out of hand? Should Major League Baseball finally institute a salary cap? Heck yeah, level the playing field a bit! No way, the more you pay, the better you play! View Poll »
