We will be having tryouts for this film on Friday in LA area. Please post with experience - right or left handed, height and weight.

How in the world are they making this into a movie?

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.

How are they gonna "SHOW" OPS and OBP? This is a stupid idea.

I've committed to tweeting about the Cubs for the rest of the season. (Does that sound as ridiculous as I think it does?) Anyway, if you're on Twitter, you can follow me here.

Can Héctor Villanueva play Jermey Brown

I just read the book this year and I felt like I was reading a Michael Moore Documentary. At some points in the book they just went to far trying to jam stuff down your throat, at other points it was nice to see what was behind the curtain. Following the draft was the most exciting part and to read all those names that were talked about in the draft was exhilarating. I also glad the Cubs are not run that way!!!!
