Sammy

By now, some of you have heard the news that Sammy Sosa of my precious Cubbies was caught red-handed cheating last night with a corked bat. Sammy says that it was a mistake. He picked up the wrong bat.

Sammy's never been my fave player, but I give him his due when he earns it. I've been teaching Paris the rules of the game and who is who on the Cubs. I keep telling Paris that even thou Sammy hits a shit-load of homeruns, I still expect him to either strike out or hit into an inning-ending double play. That said, I have to say, this man is an idiot.

Mistake or not, he cost us a run and a run that could have saved us having to play the bottom of the 9th. You could also see that it took Alou out of the game for his first at-bat. Shoor...the man is having a hard season and needed a little pick-me-up, but a corked bat? The laws of physics state that it won't help that much, esp when trying to catch up to a 90 MPH fastball.

Boys are so dumb sometimes.
