Alright, let’s gab a bit about this Madison Bumgarner fella and his missus. I ain’t no fancy writer or nothin’, just tellin’ it like I see it, ya know?
So, this Bumgarner guy, he’s a big shot baseball player, or least he used to be. Folks say he won all sorts of championships and whatnots. World Series MVP, they call it. Sounds mighty important, like winnin’ the blue ribbon at the county fair, but bigger, I reckon. They sayin’ he was real good at pitchin’ that ball, not lettin’ the other fellas hit it much. ERA somethin’-somethin’, they called it. Low numbers mean good, I hear. Like gettin’ a good price on tomatoes at the market.
- He pitched real good
- Won a bunch of games
- Got a fancy title, MVP
Anyways, this fella got himself released by some team, the Diamondbacks, they call ’em. Don’t know why, maybe he got old or somethin’. Happens to the best of us, I tell ya. One minute you’re the cock of the walk, the next you’re… well, not the cock of the walk no more. Kinda like that prize-winning rooster old man Johnson had, stopped crowin’ one day, just like that.
Now, about his wife. They say her name is Ali Saunders. Not a fancy name, but a good, solid name. Sounds like a nice gal, you know? The kind that would bake you a pie without askin’ and always has a kind word for everyone.
They sayin’ she was a lifeguard before. You know, one of them folks that watch over the swimmers at the pool or the beach. Makes sure nobody drowns. Important job, that is. Keeps folks safe. Reminds me of my cousin Martha, always watchin’ the kids like a hawk when we went to the lake. Good woman, Martha.
And get this, they were high school sweethearts! Ain’t that somethin’? Met when they were just kids, barely more than sprouts, and stuck together all this time. Rare these days, you know? Most folks get hitched and then un-hitched faster than you can say “Jack Robinson”. But these two, they seem like the real deal. Like my grandma and grandpa, been together since they were knee-high to a grasshopper.
They even got themselves a whole passel of kids, four of ’em, they say. Bet that house is full of noise and laughter. And probably a fair bit of mess too. Kids will be kids, I always say. Keeps you young, though, chasin’ after ’em.
This Bumgarner fella and his wife, they seem alright to me. Down to earth, you know? Not like them Hollywood types with their fancy cars and their noses in the air. Just regular folks, even though he used to be a big shot baseball player. And that’s the way it should be, I reckon. Family, kids, and stickin’ together. That’s what really matters in this life.
They even went to some parade or somethin’, “Starry Night” they called it. He was the big cheese, the grand marshal or whatever. And his wife and kids were right there with him. That’s nice to see. A family man, that’s what he is. And a good woman by his side. You can tell a lot about a man by the woman he chooses, I always say. And she stood by him when he was released, didn’t run off with some other fella. That’s loyalty for ya.
So, there you have it. A bit of gossip about Madison Bumgarner and his wife, Ali Saunders. Just an ordinary couple, livin’ their lives, best as they can. And that’s all any of us can do, ain’t it?
