(Or, in the case of us Cub fans, some would call it "delusion".)

Statue of KFC's Col. pulled from Japanese river: Financial News - Yahoo! Finance

Maybe there's a statue of a goat somewhere in the Chicago River...that would explain a lot.

(And why am I doing the title thing?!? Damn you, Billy!)

I saw that, and he's one home run shy of 500. I wonder if he'll try to get on another team, then retire after he gets past 500.
