Maybe Albert Pujols Abandoned The Cardinals, But He Took The Midwestern Mawkishness With Him

ESPN LA reports that Pujols is uncomfortable with the Angels' "El Hombre" billboards, because Stan Musial is the only person ever to be called "the man" before, and he's the greatest man ever to have lived, and Albert Pujols, mighty and moral though he might be, could never compare. "I still have the same respect for him as I had, not just for what he's done in baseball but for what he did for his country." Jumpin' Jehoshaphat!
