Want to get rid of Pujols?



I like reading The Redbird Nation. Its always interesting to see what one of your rivals thinks.

Anyways he had this on Pujols...

AGEGATE REVISITED: The other day we mentioned Albert Pujols' disputed age -- officially he's 24 years old, but people have been dubious about his real age from the moment he entered the league. Well, now the stakes are higher than ever before. At the quarterly owners' meeting that concluded yesterday, players who falsify their age "or other material facts on their contracts" will face a one-year suspension.

So if it turns out that Pujols is really older than he says, he'd lose not only a couple years off his reported age, he'd lose a year playing in the major leagues. If I was an NL Central rival, I'd do some poking around in the Dominican Republic.


I am sure once the Uncouth Sloth see's that he will dispatch secret agents to the Dominican Republic ASAP. Or we can just start that the 1st blog to get proof, real or fake, that gets Pujols suspended for a year gets season tickets to the Cubs. Good luck in the annual, "Lets get rid of Pujols" sweepstakes.
