New Draft Signing Tactic

June 29, 2007

After a reasonable presentation of power points, slides, and graphs failed to convince the young draftee to sign, the Nats turned to a new tactic. Jim Bowden plans on camping out at draft pick Michael Burgess’s family home with his sleeping bag until the guy signs. Snore torture! How long can they hold out?

Jim Bowden: When they asked me why I have a sleeping bag and pillow with me, I tell them that I’m not leaving until he signs. Lucky Charms with blueberries for breakfast, I tell them. Our presentation has me exhausted, time to sign Michael or guess what? You have a new roommate.
