Cards slugger meets Lakers star prior to Thursday’s game

They’re both champions. They’re both MVPs. Heck, they’re both Nike pitchmen. Yet until Thursday night, Albert Pujols and Kobe Bryant had never met.

Now, in addition to everything else, they’re both members of a mutual admiration society.

Pujols, along with several Cardinals teammates, made the trip down to Miami on Thursday to watch the Lakers-Heat NBA game at AmericanAirlines Arena. Most of the teammates — a group that included diehard Lakers fan Brendan Ryan, Joe Mather, Yadier Molina and Ruben Gotay — got photos with Bryant, the Lakers’ superstar. But Pujols actually sat down and talked with him for a good long while prior to the tilt.

“I did talk with Kobe,” Pujols said. “I got there about 5:30, watching practice for about an hour and a half. It’s just amazing, his preparation. When he was done, he was generous enough to come and sit down with me and [my son] A.J., and start talking about preparation and success and a little bit of everything. We kind of exchanged information. He told me to keep in touch and he would like to keep talking.

This past Saturday adidas hosted a star-studded event for the official “kick off” of the UNDFTD superstar, David Beckham designed by Undefeated co-owner, James Bond. The event encased much of the adi spirit with many originators in the their own respective light in good company with the entire collaborative works on display.

The Marathon TR Mid was a part of the collection and featured a re-worked upper aside from the low key colorways with leather tassels added to the upper. Also, the ZX800 was shown in a zestful yellow/orange and blue hue navy/black colorway.
