  Baseball players get limber with yoga -- it's not news any more

Star-Telegram.com Fort Worth Cats perfect their best yoga poses:

The pitching thing did not stick for Gulledge, even though he struck out two batters in a perfect inning, but the yoga has. Gulledge noticed in the off-season that he was faster. "Unbelievably faster," actually. He said his endurance and flexibility improved, too.

I can't resist it &mdash another sports story about pro athletes taking up yoga to give them an edge in their competitive game. This time it's a minor league team in Fort Worth, Texas. This time, the middle-aged sports writer puts down his pen and joins the mini-session before a ball game. Like the previous story, this has photos, too.

Many people hear voices when no-one is there. Some of them are called mad and are shut up in rooms where they stare at the walls all day. Others are called writers and they do pretty much the same thing.
