The New York Daily News can’t stop talking about New York Yankee Alex Rodriguez and his affinity for poker. T.J. Quinn wrote an article about Alex and other athletes today including the Minnesota Viking football team. T.J. thinks most people are making too big a deal about A-Rod’s extracurricular gambling activities. He thinks it’s A-Rod’s prerogative to play poker especially since he isn’t doing anything illegal.
Though T.J. does think that A-Rod could’ve used better judgment. There’s no need for him to go to these illegal card rooms when he can go to a casino, play online or have one of the more expensive home games around.
T.J. also laughs at the fact that A-Rod is risking his safety over what amounts to nickels and dimes for him. Click on the below article for more details. Also, if you scroll all the way down, you will see a goofy Top 5 list about A-Rod and his poker play.
