1. And how did Sammy respond?

Well-like a champion.

Sosa's the headline, story is Tejeda

AP Sosa also hit a three-run blast.Sammy Sosa's three-run homer in his return to Chicago might have been the most dramatic moment of an 8-1 win over the White Sox on a cold Tuesday night.

2. Pouted and left the dugout before the game was over?

Oh wait, that's only if he's not getting his way.

3. He got booed because he's a jerk and a fraud

The world revolves around Sammy, just ask him. His hand kissing chest pounding act wore thin around here, not to mention he's a cheat. He was so obviously on the juice and then there's the corked bat.

Homered again last night, I see.

5. His Cub teammates hated him

He brought his entourage into the clubhouse, played his boom box overly loud and stifled anyone else's music. He chronically showed up late for spring training.

He wasn't a troublemaker, per se, as in trouble with the law. I wish you luck but personally I am glad he's out of town.

6. I will not defend Sammy, BUT and there's always a BUT

The Cubs Organization loved. every. freaking. minute. of Sammy. They milked his antics, they kowtowed to his acts on the field and off, and worst of all they looked the other way when a 180lb 30 homer hitter came back in the BULLSHIT season of '98 weighing 225lbs, looking like a bull standing on it's hindlegs.

The Cubs made big money all throughout his 13 year stay...
