Third-Person-Reference Alert!
"Whatever happens, I don’t want to know about a contract during the season...If they don’t sign me, sorry, but I must go. That’s what Carlos Zambrano thinks."
Amazing.
Guess who this Sports Illustrated quote is from! Give up? It’s "Big Z" himself, Carlos Zambrano, using a second self-referential moniker during a single interview!
"Jim [Hendry; Cubs GM] spent a lot of money. I hope he has more for 'Big Z'."
Who, outside of baseball, has even fucking heard of Carlos Zambrano? Yes, he’s the Cubbies’ best pitcher, but that’s like being a World Champion Fecophiliac: there’s not a whole lot of competition...and, if competition arose, it'd be surprising.
I guess it’s final - every single athlete in North America thinks they’re Muhammad Ali. ¶ 10:50 AM
