Deadspin
Kids, if you're having trouble in your current relationship, if you and your significant other are finding it difficult to communicate with each other, if you're feeling the spark slowly drain away ... well, only two people can save you. David Copperfield, and Miguel Batista.
On the always random and odd Yardbarker, a fan says running into the Mariners pitcher at a David Copperfield performance saved his marriage. (Via iTricks.) Maybe it can work for you too.
The reason why I am writing this is to show how much that moment meant to me and my wife. We were in a verge of divorce. By seeing Miguel Batista and his girlfriend Taj Mahal that night at the magic show and how much they were so in love with each other made me realized how valuable my marriage was and it brought back memories of how I used to be in love with my wife... They saved my marriage and I am forever grateful to both of them. It was indeed a magical night!
You know, it really is that simple. Hopefully, the next time you're in need of a relationship boost, you'll run into Miguel Batista, rather than, say, Matt Leinart.

Marv Albert taught me how to love again.
His girlfriend's name is Taj Mahal? She sounds HUGE.
Miguele Batista makes Atlas look like a pussy.
Wait a minute...dude's dating a chick named Taj Mahal and we're focusing on some douche with marriage problems?
Taj Mahal sounds like the name of one of A-Rod's trannies.
I too was having problems in my relationship until I saw Black Jack Morris at a tenacious D concert, fixed the whole thing up.
Also, isn't Taj Mahal a Male Blues Singer?
"in a verge of divorce". Uh...at what stage is that?
Taj Mahal the blues singer? That's one fucked up celebrity couple.
Huh. This same thing happend with me and my wife, The Great Lighthouse of Alexandria.
@goathair:
She's also popular with Indian guys.
Good to see Miguel is firmly entrenched in the 'No Tuck' camp with Leinart and Lachey.
boy, Will, that quote needs one huge freaking SIC stamped across it
I once dated a girl named Hagia Sophia. She was into Greek.
Wasn't Miguel Batista writing a novel about a serial killer and a rapist? That's so inspiring.

Before he died, Doug Henning saved my love for dinner theater.
I saw Michael Vick walking his dog one day and it completely changed my relationship with...never mind.
Miguel Batista looks vaguely urban.

Copperfield promoted the show by saying he would make the Taj Mahal disappear, needless to say the audience was not happy when it all played out.
@UkraineNotWeak: +10 (for the extra tonnage)
I learned from Doug Christie how to use Vagisil
shortly after making this post, the author saw Doug and Jackie Christie at a Siegfried and Roy Show and promptly killed his wife with a shovel.
I forgot the ominicanA Republic had a baseball team.
@Rob Iracane: +1. Hey, you wanna swap +1's?

I ran into Matt Leinart last summer when the Cards were here for a preseason game with the Vikes.
3 weeks later, my girlfriend was pregnant.
@Civil Negligence: Errr, A-Rod.
I'm just surprised she's not named Trump Mahal. That douchebag will put his name on anything.
Tom Brady taught me to dump my hot, pregnant girlfriend for a hot model. Strangely, I'm only finding smelly goats to cuddle with.
@MrRedDevil: Nah, with his golden balls.
Is there any way Taj Mahal is not a current of former stripper?
Gary Sheffield thinks Latino ballplayers are involved in more stable, successful marriages because they take orders so well.
