Im sure some of you have read this by now, but Theriot took over Paul Sullivans mailbag on chicagosports.com. Some of its pretty funny, my favorite is the one where he addressed his pitching record at LSU.

Yes it's true. Everyone knows that I've pitched. I make sure of that. I have nine different pitches, all of which are awesome. I have a 0.00 ERA, got one out, throwing all knuckleballs. I don't remember who I faced -- some dude from Ole Miss

He also goes on to say that he could take Fontenot in a fight, but the duo would lose to Z, and that DeRosa is actually the worst looking guy on the team. He also has a few good things to say about the balance of day vs night games.

All in all its pretty interesting, he seems like a funny guy.

Al has this article mentioned in his pregame thread

Sorry, i dont check the pregame threads too often.

Okay, just so I understand it... in your wildest fantasy, you are in hell. And you are co-running a bed and breakfast with the devil.

You could have checked the main-page post, though.

I have to disagree

I didn’t find Theriot’s mailbag interesting. It was as bad, if not worse, than Sullivan’s mailbags. I consider myself as having a bad habit of reading most of these mailbags. Those who read, they should realize, like something more substantive.
