According to a report in today’s New York Post, former Yankee slugger Reggie Jackson is not Alex Rodriguez:

Jackson was strolling with his 17-year-old daughter, Kimberly, when he insisted that Schwartzwald and another photographer who joined the scene identify the attractive young woman so no one got the wrong idea.

“Hey, make sure you tell them that’s my daughter, you guys. I’m not A-Rod” the slugger-turned-comic quipped.

“That’s my daughter, that’s not my girlfriend! I’m not A-Rod here!”

The excerpt is buried under a lengthy story detailing whether Reggie Jackson likes Jews — up for debate — but the big news here is that maybe Reggie knows something we don’t. My understanding was that A-Rod is going for really old women, not really young ones. That’s Roger Clemens’ turf.

The other part of this story that intrigues us is the bit about Reggie’s daughter being attractive. We assume Reggie has a hot wife, so that makes sense, and we hope that his daughter can pull off the mustache as well as dad could.
