I jumped right to the pictures and thought to myself, "Man, that sickly old man looks a lot like Sammy Sosa."

He looks like the monstrous result of a Dr. Moreau-esque crossbreeding of Sammy and Josh Caray...

Actually, he kind of just looks like Dr. Moreau himself...

As creepy as those pictures are, I have to say I am really looking forward to Sammy going batshit crazy.

"After all the photo on the left of Sammy was only taken 6 months ago. But before we start cracking saw a ghost jokes or paying tribute to the gloved one, former Cubs employee Rebecca Polihronis, who talks frequently with Sosa tells the Chicago Tribune: "He's not trying to be Michael Jackson." "He is going through a rejuvenation process for his skin," Polihronis said. "Women have it all of the time. He was surprised he came out looking so white. I thought it was a body double. Part of (the photo appearance) is just the lighting. "He was doing a dermatological skin process after years and years (of playing baseball) in the sun," Polihronis said. "It did come out looking weird (in the picture).""

Personally, I like to play in the heat. Most Latin people and minority people do. You don't find too many brothers from New Hampshire or Maine, right? We were brought over here because we could work in the heat. Isn't that history? Your skin color is more conducive to heat than it is to the lighter-skinned people. I don't see brothers running around burnt. That's a fact. I'm not making this up. I'm not seeing some brothers walking around with some white stuff on their ears and noses.

Buddy of mine at the office found this rather fortuitous bobblehead of Sammy from back in the day.

I'm not saying that the fine folks at Forever Collectibles knew this was coming, but this seems rather precognitive.

The most-coveted TPD, for this: Life coach Mike Remlinger has some broken wood he'd like to sell you. (http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseball/cubs/ct-talk-sammy-sosa-corked-bat-1006-20101009,0,7313284.story)

QuoteSchulte says the bat barrel, in which cork is visible, was authenticated by Remlinger and PSA/DNA Authentication Services, and could bring in excess of $10,000. Bidding was still at the starting price of $750 late Friday and ends Oct. 31. The handle's whereabouts are unclear.

Remlinger now works in the emerging field of life coaching, advising young athletes on improving their performance and charting a life outside of sports — a path he says he chose after making some bad decisions in his own life.

"I did try contacting Sammy about it last year to see if he wanted it back," says Remlinger, adding that this is the only item from his playing days that he's selling. "His personal assistant said Sammy was interested in getting it back, and he'd get in touch with me, but I never heard from him.

"Hopefully this won't be something that the people with the Cubs will see as a negative, and (say that) I shouldn't have done what I'm doing. To me, this is an item for the public and has more service to be out there than to be sitting in my closet."
