He's the fastest guy in baseball and is great at jumping over cars. Besides that, he sucks.

I just read this too. Cub fans have been clamoring for him for a long time for some odd reason. He could make a decent 5th outfielder....possibly.

yup.
A herd of buffalo can move only as fast as the slowest buffalo. When the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members.

In much the same way the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, we all know, kills brain cells, but naturally it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers.

I was about to post this, I was looking him up and found his car-jumping video.

Well, at least the guy has a talent.

What ever will the Cubs do with Pie? I guess this sets up a possible competition between the outfielder the Cubs picked up from Cleveland and Gathright for a roster spot.

I do too. Maybe he could be our Dave Roberts. We need more speed.

I like it if it's a Minor League deal.
The thing you need to remember is that all Cardinals fans and all White Sox fans are very bad people. It's a fact that has been scientifically proven beyond a shadow of a doubt. Being a Cubs fan is the only path to rightousness and piousness. Cardinal and White Sox fans exist to be the dark, diabolical forces that oppose us. They are the yin to our yang, the Joker to our Batman, the demon to our angel, the insurgence to our freedom, the oil to our water, the club to our baby seal. Their happiness occurs only in direct conflict with everything that is pure and good in this world.
