Osama Bin A-Rod still can't win
A-Rod does something nice for a family member, still gets trashed in the tabs
The latest comes in the New York Post reporting that A-Rod recently took his 20-year-old niece on a shopping spree at a clothing store in the Bowery that most of us couldn't even afford with a dozen Groupons. One thing led to another and his niece reportedly left with $17,600 worth of new clothes and shoes to add to her wardrobe.
From the New York Post:
When (his niece, Michelle) Silva got home, we're told her mom became concerned that her wealthy brother had spoiled her daughter with expensive goods, and told Silva to return the clothes.
Rodriguez's people then called the store repeatedly asking to return the clothes, but were informed Blue & Cream doesn't issue refunds, only store credit, a rep for the boutique told us.
Silva sent an e-mail to store management, saying she couldn't keep the pricey duds, and warned that her uncle will have to take "further measures" if a refund wasn't issued.
