Alex Rodriguez denied the fact that he had an affair with Madonna. Whether he was boinking her or not, though, she’s gonna benefit from his generosity.
According to the New York Daily News, Stray-Rod is going to be giving Madonna’s charity, Raising Malawi, “at least $500,000.”
But that’s not he strangest thing.
The Yankee will almost certainly be shelling away a larger sum to his estranged wife, Cynthia, after their divorce is final.
“They’ve asked him for a million dollars, and I hear he’s agreed to give at least $500,000,” the source confided.
Madonna must be one hell of a “friend.”
ESPN pulled a Roger Clemens. No, it didn’t misremember. It was caught in a cheating scandal.
The Disney-owned ESPN has asked its local affiliates to stop airing an ad for AshleyMadison.com, an online dating site that promotes cheating on significant others. “Life is short. Have an affair,” is the site’s trademarked slogan. Scaaaaaandalous.
The president of the Web site, Noel Biderman said he thought a double standard was applied to his company because ESPN runs beer commercials and the like. He’s also spending more than $1 million in advertising on other channels such as CNN, MSNBC, FOX, FOX NEWS and SPIKE.
There’s no doubt AshleyMadison.com will take a huge hit as a result of being cut from ESPN, which has a large viewership from men and women alike. And Spike TV, which mainly targets men 18-49, is going to make the site suffer if it ever cuts it off. But why the hell are the news channels involved? If you want to target horny, cheating Internet lovers, hit up VH1, MTV and UPN.
And get wired into Clemens’ house, Kobe Bryant’s house and most certainly Alex Rodriguez’s house.
A-Rod’s estranged wife desperately needs to update her MySpace page.
Granted, there’s always a chance that it could be fake, but C-Rod leads us to believe this page is legit, based on personal photos like the two former lovebirds in Santa caps, baby pictures, and even A-Rod blowing out birthday cake candles.
But the stale page, last updated Nov. 21, 2007, would bring a totally different spin in today’s post-divorce era. (Something tells us her tag line would most likely not say, “I am my husbands biggest fan!!”)

Holy. Shit.
This is Madonna after she walked out of a Kabbalah Center in NYC. Observations about this photo:
- A-Rod must have been utilizing the brown bag technique. Or even plastic.
- And he was running around on her? Is he fucking stupid?
- She looks like trailer park trash.
- Ever heard of a brush?
- Please don’t eat the children.
Shamless Plug: Celebrate A-Rod’s life before Madonna with this shirt.
Welcome to another installment of TSC’s Who’s Not Now. We’ve created the bracket of 16 athletes and figures of the sporting world who took the wrong paths in life and now must face humiliation on this blog. We’re breaking them down. You decide Who’s Not Now.
No. 4 Tim Donaghy, future inmate vs. No. 13 Alex Rodriguez, tabloid whore
Why Donaghy is Not Now: Tim Donaghy has both been apart of the darkest moment in NBA history, and created arguably the worst scandal in sports history. Although his presence in the Brawl at Auburn Hills isn’t the reason why he’s a No. 4-seed on this “Who’s Not Now” list, it’s still noteworthy to mention and goes without saying Donaghy is the worst person in NBA history after allegedly fixing games and betting over $10,000 through lower-level mob associations from 2005-2007. Since the charges shook the basketball world, Donaghy has since attempted to drag down fellow referrees, saying that they accompanied Donaghy in fixing NBA games. Commish David Stern has persistently denied Donaghy’s claims, saying that Donaghy acted alone.
Why Rodrizguez is Not Now: Alex Rodriguez certainly handles business on the field, but as most TSC readers realize, we’re not entirely focused on the field. But despite individual stats and production, part of his Yankee legacy gets dragged down by the “Zero Rings” curse. Now just recently, A-Rod has written and rewritten the New York tabloids with 
weeks worth of juicy divorce material — so much content that it propelled A-Rod into breaking the Sweet Sixteen of “Who’s Not Now.” While it’s hard to say that a guy with 538 home runs is “Not Now,” the recently off-field affairs with Modana gives A-Rod a low No. 14-seed.
TSC’s Pick: Donaghy.
But we don’t make the choices. YOU must vote on the right-hand column for who you think is “Not Now.”
Voting ends Tuesday at 7 p.m. eastern.
