Acting. Singing. Dancing. Jennifer Lopez can do it all.
And she can do better when it comes to men.
The Bronx-born entertainment powerhouse is unattached again after she and Alex Rodriguez announced Thursday (April 15) that they’ve ended their engagement apparently for real this time.
The coupling of J-Lo and A-Rod was tabloid catnip. They were two powerful, beautiful, crazy-rich A-listers with cool nicknames that blended perfectly together in whichever order you placed them. A-Lo would have worked, but the preferred portmanteau had to be J-Rod.
That’s because Lopez deserved to come first.
In 2004, that would have sounded crazy. When Washington Heights native Rodriguez came home to play for the Yankees in a trade, it was A-Rod’s world. He was thought of as the best player in baseball, a transcendent, telegenic talent headed to the Hall of Fame, with a chance to rewrite the record books and become beloved with the most storied franchise in North America

This week on the podcast we look back at the Dodgers home opener, which was the first time they played in front of fans at Dodger Stadium. That means we talk about the memorable ring ceremony, for the pomp and circumstance, getting many baseball greats to record into videos, and of course Bronson Arroyo singing
Wonderwall.
Also this week on the podcast, we talk about the important stuff, like Dodgers starting pitching, the offense humming while Cody Bellinger and Mookie Betts, and talk movie theater popcorn and rate baseball movies.

After waiting 32 years to have another ring ceremony at Dodger Stadium, the Dodgers had to wait one more day, with an off day before Friday’s home opener in Los Angeles.
“It was a long day. It was a
long day,” third baseman Justin Turner said. “I was up early this morning and ready to roll.”
Turner was ready when the game started as well, getting the Dodgers’ first three hits, including a home run in the sixth inning to lead LA over the Nationals 1-0 before 15,036 fans at Dodger Stadium.

The Los Angeles Dodgers received their World Series rings today before the home opener. It was an emotional moment as the team and its fans reflected on the disappointments that preceded last year and all the challenges last season presented. The largest cheer was reserved for Clayton Kershaw, who shut down opponents and narrative en route to the crown last year.
Clayton Kershaw finally got his World Series ring. ?
Wonderwall.
