For a quiet revolution

Today’s American Street fare is here.  And it is guaranteed to be one hundred percent Red Sox-free.

But now would be a good time to mention that Albert Pujols’s adopted daughter Isabella has Down syndrome, and that Pujols himself is active in Down syndrome charities in the St. Louis area.  As is Nelly, for that matter.

From JockBio:

At a Latin dance club in Kansas City, he met a pretty 21-year-old named Deidre. Completely smitten, Albert lied about his age to get a date with her. When he eventually owned up to his fib, Deidre revealed a secret of her own. She had a daughter named Isabella who had been diagnosed with Down syndrome. Albert bonded immediately with the infant, and Deidre marveled at the maturity of her 18-year-old boyfriend.

Go Cards.
