I'm always a little confused when economists come out with productivity reports. How do they get that information? I know many, many people who spend most of the day playing computer games. During the six hours I wasn't being a useful member of society today I was on the internet. There's only so many times you can check the traffic report.

There were a couple of things that made me laugh, however. It seems the Cards are on some sort of list. What makes this so amusing is that both Tony La Russa and Dusty Baker are "acceptable." If Pedro thinks those guys have similar managing styles, it's time to lay off the hair product, dude. The other funny item was this from Fox. It's just some guy's wacky idea and maybe I'm too sentimental when it comes to Rick Ankiel, but, um, I don't think so.

And then there's Bernie, playing insider over at his little domain. It looked bad when I first read this, but then I remembered that he's largely full of it. I'd really hate to lose Edgar, but if he wants to chase the money, I doubt the Cardinals can keep up. Just please, god, don't go to the Cubs.

And now I see Peter Gammons is saying Beltran's going to Chicago. The day just gets funnier and funnier.
