i believe sammy sosa is a big fat cheater- he deserves to go to the cheating hall of fame. If sammy sosa was in the matrix he would be agent smith - thats all i have to say

He's a baseball player for the Chicago Cubs.

I think he's referring to a discussion about how they falsified his records so he could sign up even though he was really too young.

argg, head too full of useless trivia information, usefull stuff leaking out

Or the fact that he got caught using a bat that was against regulations. Then tried to say it was an honest mistake. *mmmm*

no, sorry, tat confused me greatly, are baseball bats made out of cork now? Are they trying to pull away from rounders?

I dunno beargod. I am not really into baseball. I'll search around and see if I can find some better articles.

Yes. I believe that he definitely was cheating. That seems to be the concensus with the guys that I work with too.
