At least that's what the ESPN.com article about the signing says, at just before 11 pm CT.

And just so you don't think I'm making this up, here's a screenshot (click on it to open a larger version in a new window):

Revolutionary new strategy.

Cuts out the agent, the MLBPA, and the team. Perhaps Bonds should pursue this strategy.

And some guy named Woods is the Cubs closer

On ESPN for awhile the other day the breaking news was WOODS NAMED CUBS CLOSER.

Wow I knew Tiger was great but he's going to close for the CUbs as well as golf now?

We are all waiting for that glorious October night when we finally win it all. Until then we will continue to cheer, never do the wave and hope.

I thought it was

Ickey Woods

Can't you just see

Tiger teeing up a baseball on the mound and taking his almighty swing at it. I don't think a sane human being would stand in the batter's box for that one.

I look forward

To no errors on this site. Be careful...

The difference is

Al would admit it if called on it. Marriotti is worse than Boers in Bernstein.
