If you ever meet Chicago Cubs player Moises Alou, you may want to think twice about shaking his hand. Alou, who doesn't wear batting gloves, mentioned in an ESPN.com story that he urinates in his hands to toughen them up. When the Chicago Tribune asked him where he picked up this technique, he said: "A lot of guys in the league do it. Guys in this clubhouse do it." His strong hands tactic might be pushing the boundaries of good taste - even by locker-room standards. Alou said he figured the subject matter was off the record in the ESPN.com story, even though he didn't expressly say so, due to its crude nature. Guess he'll think twice from now on before revealing information he doesn't want everyone to know!

But if you do that to your toes, it will cure athlete's foot

As a Cubs fan, I've always thought Moises showed too little emotion during the game. My sons and I have wanted him to "pis* and moan" a little more.

Well, I guess he does that already!
