When Alex Met Kate

Who is that guy in the A-Rod costume this post-season? Surely, it's not the same Alex Rodriguez who only gets hits in April or when the game is a blowout. In the 2009 playoffs, A-Rod has morphed into the 2004 Big Papi. He's Mr. Clutch and the Yankees look unstoppable. How did it happen and who is responible? Let us take a deeper look at the past year in the life of Alex Rodriguez, shall we?

Madonna affair and divorce

Mrs. Rodriguez finally gets tired of the skirt chasing after a very public affair between Alex and Madonna and tells him to pack his bags. By all accounts, Alex never should have gotten married since faithful isn`t in his vocabularly. Which makes him the same as virtually every other star athlete. But at least now he doesn't have to lie about it. That's one burden removed.

Steroids. Steroids. Steroids.

A Sports Illustrated reporter breaks the story that Alex was on a list of known steroids users seized by the Feds in 2003. A-Rod admits this to ESPN`'s Peter Gammmons and holds a few extremely awkward press conferences. For a sensitive creature like Alex, this must have been a huge relief since the fear of being called out no doubt haunted him for years.

Hip surgery

Over his stellar career, A-Rod has been remarkably durable. He never gets hurt and rarely even takes a game off. You could even call him Everyday Alex (Apologies to Eddie Guardado). But due to offseason hip surgery, he missed the start of the regular season and played in the fewest games since 1999. Likely got him thinking about how much longer he can perform at such a high level - aka, a sense of urgency.

Back to baseball

So after Alex gets publicly humilated over the divorce and steroids, accepts that he'll never be able to make everyone love him (which always seemed more important than winning), discovers he is mortal and aging after hip surgery, and finally realizes that rather than worrying about making everyone adore him, he should just go play winning baseball and the rest will take care of itself.Of course, guys like Derek Jeter and Tom Brady figured that out a long time ago, but it still wasn't too late for Alex. Today he correctly shrugs off random criticism, that in the past would have eaten him up, and simply plays like the most talented baseball player in the world.

There`s Something about Kate Hudson

Finally, let us not forget the adorable Kate Hudson. I think she plays a major role in the new and improved "I`m comfortable in my own skin" A-Rod. She's doesn't need his fame or his money. She isn't a whore or insane. She's a nice stable girl (certainly by Hollywood standards) and fits in perfectly with his new sensible life.And since we avoid posting pictures of guys whenever possible, here is the perfect ass of Kate Hudson. Perhaps the finest butt of any woman not named Jessica Biel. And you're welcome.
