Jered Weaver Sacrifices Books for Balls
With a 3-1 victory over Kansas City last night, Rookie phenom Jered Weaver is now 7-0, in only 7 starts. With extraordinary 
numbers including a 1.15 ERA and a .79 WHIP accompanying an undefeated record, it is becoming conceivable that if Weaver doesn't lose at all this year he is both a Rookie of the Year and a Cy Young candidate. If Weaver finishes with 14 or 15 wins and no losses I think he should be considered for the awards, even though he only pitched in 6 games before the All-Star break!
The key to Weaver's amazing success on the Major-League level? Sacrifice. Specifically, Weaver is so dedicated to improving his skills on the diamond that he has given up reading. This isn't a new phenomenon though, rather Weaver has resisted the temptation of literature since he was born. What discipline...

I do read! And at least I'm not scared to post comments and hide under the anonymous mask.
I am not hiding under any damn mask. My name is anonymous. It isn't my fault that my parents were tripping from LSD when they named me. What is your deal you freak? Your name is Mini me.
