When attendance is down, you're losing games, and the sears tower is about to have a name change what would you do to revive your city's baseball team? The Chicago Cubs have come up with a plan to bring the fans back and hopefully win some games by signing Mr. T to a three year deal. 'We saw how strong he was in that one Rocky movie,' explained the General Manager. 'We knew we had to get him as a pitcher.' The whole town is buzzing ever since the deal took place. 'Chicago seems like its coming back to life,' said Walter a local Chicagoan. 'They took the wood panels off the windows at the aquarium and supposedly it may open in the next week.' The Cubs went from a D-List team to the A Team according to Mr. T. 'When you get the right ball sport team together, the rest of your town will come back together,' said Mrs. T. 'My husband is the right man for the job.'
