I thought this was pretty funny (it's from his second most recent post)...

 

DEROSA: How did it feel when you're sitting in Baton Rouge and it came across the ticker that Mark DeRosa had just signed to play second base with the Chicago Cubs.

 

THERIOT: In all honestly, when I saw it, I really felt like punching you right in the mouth and or breaking your leg. It was kind of a shock. It was a little upsetting in the beginning. But after Jim [Hendry] called me, and we talked a little bit about it, I felt better about the whole situation.

 

DEROSA: And when I showed up at Fitch Park, what were your impressions about me?

 

THERIOT: I didn't know if we were getting a second baseman or an Ultimate Fighter. Your physique was comparable to that of a Greek god.

DEROSA: First off, I want to reiterate that the reason to call this "The Pulse" is because my teammates gave me that nickname when my heart almost stopped on the field at Fitch Park. Ryan Theriot decided to give me mouth to mouth and that's why I came to -- I decided I wasn't near death.

 

We're going to interview Ryan Theriot this week. Ryan, how ya doing?

 

THERIOT: I'm doing good.

 

DEROSA: First off, did you ever think when you signed out of LSU you that you'd eventually be the starting shortstop for the Chicago Cubs?

 

THERIOT: Yes, I did. Confidence is something I never lacked.

 

DEROSA: Remember, they're not going to know you're being funny.

Everything goes through me. My teammates know it. The fans see the superstars and all this stuff. I'm the glue, baby. I'm the guy who floats from the No. 1 man to the 25th man. I'm somewhere in the 15, 13 range. I'm the bell curve.

 

I love DeRo.

I've generally enjoyed his interviews, but I didn't know he had THIS great of a sense of humor.
