Guess thats why they say reading is fundamental.

This guy is headed to a roast and he's the pig.

Wonder if he stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night.

Just think of the advertising potential.

Just one note to this guy dont accept any White House invitations be very very careful.LOL

By several estimates, Chapman could garner a contract worth anywhere from $30 million to $60 million.

Yeah, but......but, but, but....in Cuber, he's got access to free, universal health care.

Somebody needs to talk some sense into this guy. There's no guarantee he'll get that kind of security here.

True, there's a good chance but it's no guarantee.

Are you kidding he is headed back to the Castro Brothers for some summer training. Look it as a peace offering from Obama for American imperialism over the years

Amen. One of Pres--ent Ubama's chief legal counsels is Greg Craig. Craig represented the Cuban government in its effort to regain custody of another noteworthy Cuban defector, Elian Gonzalez.

And when he was finally removed in the third inning of a 6-0 loss against Japan in pool play, Chapman did not look at manager Higinio Velez, running straight into the clubhouse without slapping hands with any of his teammates.

Shocking! No hug and kiss for his coach?

Are you sure that’s a safe thing for Chapman to do in the Age Of Obama? Wouldn’t 0 send him back to Cuba w/ guns in his face like Butch Reno did w/ Elian Gonzales (sp?) back when Clinton was in office?

Sorry...I’m legally blind, so I tend to not read entire articles. I guess I shouldn’t have spoken so fast.

Yes. Did you change the wording of the actual headline? You're not supposed to do that.

I think you can add your own disclaimer like: (barf alert!), (gag alert!), (anderson cooper is a teabagging pile of Joe Biden alert!), etc.

Only other possibility, maybe the Admin Mod on duty is PMSing.
