    Have you ever heard of the Northern League? Have you ever heard of being traded for a bucket of balls? This story might just be for you:


    From my boston sports blog:
    I heard this one last night one the radio, and I just had to check it out. The Northern League, subsisting of teams such as the Fargo Moorhead Redhawks, and the Edmonton Cracker Cats posts all transactions in the league. Most look like : Edmonton signed ... to a 2006 contract. And then other players are exchanged for cash, future considerations, or other players. But one of these transactions does not look like the others:

    Northern League
    05/01/2006 Schaumburg Assigned the contract of RHP Nigel Thatch (Rookie) to Fullerton of the Golden Baseball League in exchange for 1 pallet (60 cases) of Budweiser beer.

    And you thought you were unwanted at work!
