Evan Longoria does not like to talk about Eva Longoria. I know why. Freshman year of college. A certain profanely-titled song by a certain really stupid Anglo R&B singer named Eamon is atop the charts. And I, after introducing myself to cute girls at parties, had to hear the constant refrain: "Like the singer?" Eamonn was a perfectly good name until that no-talent a-- clown started winning Grammy's. Anyway, I get it. Hearing that sort of thing probably irks Evan. But Eva's "people" apparently do not care, as they peppered Big League Stew's Nick Friedell with a statement from the woman herself:
"I hope Evan gets Rookie of the Year and congratulations to them making it to the World Series!!!Thanks for that, Eva. Now kindly go away. Leave the similarly named alone. We don't need your support, OK?
"I thought it was funny when someone first told me that there was an Evan Longoria playing for the Tampa Bay Rays, but I kept hearing his name being mentioned after another Rays win. It's good to see that he is representing the Longorias well and keeping the name proud!" ~Eva Longoria
