Gwangju- A nation mourns this Saturday after Choo Shin Soo re-signed with the Baton Rouge Biscuits after a solid year for the ball club. "He was alright," Biscuits manager Joey Abel said at Biscuits headquarters today, "but this is more of a middle finger to Altizer (Otters skipper) and the nation of South Korea."In a nation that has long disdained the Japanese and Anton Apollo Ohno now put Abel at the top of their list. Last year when Abel stole Choo from the Otters with promises of all the kimchi po' boys he could eat, South Korea erupted in protests. Effigy's of Abel burned in the street and security had to be upped when the Biscuits came to Korea. An anti-Abel rally is scheduled for Sunday in Seoul.
"It just got personal," Otters skipper Whit Altizer said from Gwangju by telephone, "having Sandra Oh throw out the first pitch of the season is one thing, but taking Choo from us for another season makes it feel like Abel is trying to hijack this country. What a 똥구멍."
