Day Two: Andy Harrison becomes newest Bigs Exec

'Operation Rebuild Bigs' takes a strange turn

Gwangju, South Korea-AP- In the second day of talks between Bigs Commissioner Sam Kirby and former commissioner Whit Altizer the two named Andy Harrison, Executive Vice President of the Bigs Baseball Operations. The move has surprised many in the league as Harrison is known for his erratic behavior and endless sex scandals with former PR director of the Boozehounds and current Bigs VP Harry Jazzercise.

It is even more surprising as Altizer has made no secret of his distrust and disdain for Harrison in the past. It is believed that Commissioner Kirby has called in a few favors with Altizer to make this deal.

But both Altizer and Kirby formed a united front to try to assuage fears that such a move would compound the problems of the Bigs. "This is neither an impulse move nor a sign of cronyism," Bigs spokesperson Ari Fleischer said at a press conference today, "we believe that Harrison is right for this post, end of story."

For all of the efforts by the Bigs to convince the people that this is the right move, Bigs managers are inconsolable. "This is bullsh*t," Biscuits manager Joey Abel tweeted today, "Harrison is a walking, talking plague." Rebel Rousers manager, JP Vinson echoed Abel's tweet today at Rousers Field during BP. "This is going to cause quite a sh*tstorm in Missouri," Vinson said "Harrison literally threw his jock in the crowd earlier this season after a controversial call, he isn't beloved in the midwest."

Supporters of Harrison point to his current success with the Boozehounds as an example of his abilities to rebuild a sinking ship. "Let's face it the Boozehounds have really sucked," Baseball Today said today, "but Andy Harrison, in almost every aspect of his life, has been able to make something out of nothing."
