"Red Sox Deal Cy Young Winner For Pakistani Cab Driver "
"For the Last Time I’m Not the ‘Jesus’ Kurt Warner," Curt Warner Says"
From the archive entitled: Mark Cuban Still Trying to Hang Out with Players . "And if he sends me one more email titled ‘Wassup?," (Michael) Finley continued, "I’m suing Hotmail." Heh, it's funny because it's probably true. Thanks for the laughs vito90!

"Anybody even know what a ‘wikka-wokka’ is?" Just too funny...

Heh. There's some gems in the past issues archive: "Garcia Readies For Tee Shot, Starves To Death Atlanta, GA -- Medical personnel and PGA officials report that Spanish golf star Sergio Garcia, known for his ceaseless pre-shot gripping routine, eventually passed away from severe malnutrition and dehydration.
