    Hell, I didn't know that he wasn't in the first place. Props to him though, I heard that the exam is really hard and a lot of Americans can't even pass it.

    I bet I wouldn't be able to pass it.

    I never knew he wasn't either. That's interesting. Congrats to Pujols then.
    I'm with brewersfan on this. Proud to be American born. I have enough tests in college without having to worry about them for citizenship.
    Integrity can accommodate the inadvertent error and the honest difference of opinion; it cannot accommodate deceit or subordination of principle.

    Was one of the questions "is Tom Glavine a good pitcher?"
    I did a lot of good things as a sim league GM.

    Ah, give me something clever to say here.

    No, but one question was "How far did that ball Albert Pujols hit off of Brad Lidge in the 2005 NLCS travel?"
