As noted above, the crowd's reaction will be the best thing about seeing Kerry Wood return.

If only it were Back in Blue

For some reason, this song came to mind when I thought about this. Key lyrics:

Sometimes I don't thrill you
Sometimes I think I'll kill you
Just don't let me f**k up, will you?
Cuz when I need a friend it's still you

Good luck, Kerry!

The End - The Doors
Hot Tub - Weezer
Great Expectations - Elbow

& my favorite - the Hokey Pokey (you put your right elbow/shoulder in, you put your right elbow/shoulder out...)

so of course it would have to be "Working Man".

But c'mon.  It's got to be "Knock on Wood."  Preferably the original Eddie Floyd version.

But Wrigley Field should really stay out of those things.

but I'd roll out the theme from "M*A*S*H."

Again, I warn you all about any excitment over this. Wood (and "The Employee") are both as fragile as crystal. When he's grabbing his elbow/arm/wrist/pinky during outing number #2, maybe we can put all this to rest and move on.

I hear whining about Cliff Floyd, but he's the picture of health in comparison to Wood and Prior.

Apparently, that's what it's going to take to end this circus for many of you.  Another major, agonizing breakdown. This guy is excess baggage, and his career is finished. He can throw all he wants in "A" ball but it's a bit different in MLB, don't you think? Or are we so clouded by 'nostalga' from 2003  that you must have this guy back? America loves a comeback story, I guess.
I'd rather not waste any time of this season.

I (and Cubs management) have relied on this guy way too much over the past 7 years. It's time to let go.

It's raining men!  No?  Ok.....

Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
Ive been around for a long, long year
Stole many a man's soul and faith
And I was round when Jesus Christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game
I stuck around St. Petersburg
When I saw it was a time for a change
Killed the czar and his ministers
Anastasia screamed in vain
I rode a tank
Held a general's rank
When the blitzkrieg raged
And the bodies stank
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
Ah, whats puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah
I watched with glee
While your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades
For the gods they made
I shouted out,
Who killed the Kennedys?
When after all
It was you and me
Let me please introduce myself
Im a man of wealth and taste
And I laid traps for troubadours
Who get killed before they reached Bombay
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But whats puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah, get down, baby
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But whats confusing you
Is just the nature of my game
Just as every cop is a criminal
And all the sinners saints
As heads is tails
Just call me Lucifer
'cause I'm in need of some restraint
So if you meet me
Have some courtesy
Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse
Or I'll lay your soul to waste, um yeah
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, um yeah
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, um mean it, get down
Woo, who
Oh yeah, get on down
Oh yeah
Oh yeah!
Tell me baby, what's my name
Tell me honey, can ya guess my name
Tell me baby, whats my name
I tell you one time, you're to blame
Ooo, who
Ooo, who
Ooo, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Oh, yeah
What's me name
Tell me, baby, what's my name
Tell me, sweetie, what's my name
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
