I know that there are still people who think the Sammy signing is a PR stunt, but considering how bad the entire team except for Kinsler has been, I think Sosa has been great!

the rest of the rangers need to step it up.

Big League Chew is a brand of bubble gum that is shredded and packaged in an aluminum foil pouch. It was created by Portland Maverick's left-hander baseball Rob Nelson, and pitched to the Wrigley Company by former New York Yankee All-Star, Jim Bouton(a Maverick teammate of Nelson's) as a fun alternative to the tobacco-chewing habit common among ballplayers in the 70's. According to the 2005 packaging, over 450 million pouches of the gum have been sold since 1980.

Big League Chew was introduced in 1980 in the traditional pink color already seen in established brands of bubble-gum. Chosen by professional players, the cartoonish brand is packaged in flashy colors such as neon green and is clearly also a favorite among kids. Despite this, LeBron James was reportedly a devoted user of the gum before signing an endorsement deal with Bubblicious

In addition to the original bubble gum flavor, it comes in cotton candy, grape, strawberry, watermelon, sour cherry, and sour apple flavors. It is produced by Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company in Chicago, USA.
