Great article Pravata unearthed over at NYCU on 'Rooster'.  Did anyone else notice that he is planning to pitch for Italy in the World Baseball Classic?  What's up with that?

I really don't want to be Captain Obvious here. However, for those that don't speaky ...gallo means rooster in the Spanish.


Also, Mexican roosters don't say Cock-a-doodle-doo they say qui-qui-ri-qui.
