The Story
- Gary Carter, an 11-time All-Star, 3-time Gold Glover and World Series winning catcher, has passed away due to complications from four malignant brain tumors on February 16th, 2012. He is survived by his wife Sandy Carter, his daughters Kimmy and Christy, his son DJ and many grandchildren.
Though he played for 19 years with the New York Mets, Montreal Expos, San Francisco Giants and the Los Angeles Dodgers - he is perhaps most well known for his game-winning single against the Houston Astros while playing for the Mets in the 1986 NLCS. Those Mets would go on to defeat the Boston Red Sox for his first and only World Series title. Though he wanted to be inducted into the Hall of Fame as both an Expo and a Met, the Hall makes that call and chose to make Gary the Expos' first hall of famer.
Gary Carter was born and raised in Fullerton, California where he attended Sunny Hills High School and played football as a quarterback and baseball as an infielder. It was also in Fullerton that Gary met his future wife Sandy, where she studied at Fullerton College. Gary and Sandy were married in 1975 and had their first child, Kimmy, in October of 1980.
The Story
- UPDATE: 04-24-2012: We can now say for certain, finally, that Kevin Youkilis' wife is Julie Brady. Oh, and Julie Brady is pregnant. The couple were married in a small ceremony on Thursday in their Weston home, with only immediate family in attendance. No surprise that Bobby Valentine wasn't invited to the wedding, but Youk did say that they plan to have a larger party at some point in the future to properly celebrate.
02-10-2012: Annnd the story gets a bit more strange. The Boston Herald originally posted, and then quickly retracted, that Kevin Youkilis was dating one of Tom Brady's sisters - Nancy Brady. Now, they are running a story that Youk is getting married to one of Tom Brady's sisters - but a different one, this time it's Julie Brady. Making things even more strange, in today's article the Herald actually referred to Julie as 'Nancy' once - even they are hedging their bets as to which sister it really is. All we can tell you for sure is that Tom Brady has three sisters, two of whom are Julie and Nancy. We don't know for sure whether either of them ever dated, is currently engaged to or may be marrying, Kevin Youkilis. All we can hope for, at least for Youk's sake, is that they have pillow fights over who gets to have him.
Beyond that, what do we know about Julie Brady. Well, apparently her and Youk met at a party in Patriot Place after the Jets defeated the Patriots in the 2011 playoffs. If true, that would make this an awfully short honeymoon phase. Though Julie has a daughter from a prior relationship, 5 year old Jordan, she was never married and this will be he first trip down the aisle. Though Youk has actually physically walked down the aisle, with Enza Sambataro, since they never filed the legal paperwork, he was actually never technically married.
- While perusing the various sports gossip sites on the morning of October 12, 2011, one headline caught our attention. The Boston Herald ran with a story headlined "Youk and Brady's Sis Spark Rumors."
After I discovered this headline, I immediately emailed my PlayerWives counterpart to check out the story, which I would update later in the day. Unfortunately for us, the story was down by mid morning, with no mention of why or referral to a retraction.
The jist of the story suggests that while attending Sunday's Pats vs. Jets game in Foxborough, Youk and Nancy Brady were getting cozy in Tom Brady's private suite. Nancy, who has moved to Boston to more or less serve as brother Tom's personal assistant, also spends time volunteering to work with children in the area.
Kevin Youkilis has apparently denied the rumor, though the Herald's original source said that “they were mugging it up in the box.” On the surface, the fact that the Herald took the story down so quickly would suggest that there's nothing to it. However the cynic in us wonders if maybe someone's representatives got to the Herald to take down the story. Considering how fiercely guarded the Brady family has been of their personal lives and how badly Youk's last public relationship wound up, it would not shock us if publicists managed to convince the Gossip section of the Herald to pull it down.
If there's any truth to the rumors, we'll find out eventually. Can't stay hidden long in Boston...

The Story
- Alex Rodriguez continues his roll through tall, jacked blonde chicks.
After breaking up with his girlfriend of over a year, Cameron Diaz, A-Rod moved on to his tall, blonde, jacked personal trainer and nutritionist Ella Magers.
However, since late December, it's become very obvious that Alex has moved on yet again, this time linking up with former WWE Diva, and 2004 Playboy cover model, Torrie Wilson. The two were first seen together in Cabo with Wilson's close friend, Stacy Kiebler and her boyfriend, George Clooney. Wilson and Rodriguez were later seen biking in Miami, at a gym in Wilson's hometown of Boise, ID, and most notably sitting courtside at a Laker's game where they shared their first public kiss.
So for those of you who don't know who Torrie Wilson is, well, you've probably stopped reading. If you did hang around, Torrie Wilson is most notably a former WWE Diva and Women's Title holder. She came to the WWE after a brief stint in WCW after winning the Miss Galaxy fitness competition in 1998. She has graced the cover of various magazine's including FHM and Playboy. Since more or less retiring from wrestling in 2008, spare a few one time guest appearances, Wilson has done little. She did finish second to Lou Diamond Phillips on NBC's highly lauded reality show, "I'm a Celebrity; Get Me Out of Here."
So you know, she's got that going for her.

The Story
- Alex Rodriguez is not a man who stays single long.
After splitting from his wife Cynthia in 2008, he's made a run through some of Hollywood's bigger names; there were well publicized flings with Kate Hudson and Cameron Diaz, as well as some rumored encounters with Madonna and Christie Brinkley.
However, it appears now that ARod has Hollywood out of his system. Alex has been seen repeatedly in recent weeks with a blonde fitness enthusiast, Ella Magers. Ella and Alex have a prior working relationship with her serving as his nutritionist and trainer.
Ella is a fitness professional located in Miami Beach where ARod makes his offseason home. She has an impressive resume including various media consultations as a fitness expert and a wide array of services offered (including private and group training and wellness coaching).
A couple sports gossip blogs have indicated that Ella was the reason for ARod's split from Diaz, though that has not been substantiated in any way. It does appear these two are becoming serious as they were photographed on vacation with Rodriguez's children in November, 2011.
