Some of the quotes in this article are hilarious when they committed to $100 million for Carlos freaking Lee.

 

"This is a historic commitment to winning," Astros general manager Tim Purpura said.

 

"I won't disappoint you," the 30-year-old Lee said. "Let's go for the championship."

 

"Carlos will fit very nicely in the middle of that lineup -- oh, my goodness, that's going to be nice. I'm sure that Berkman is over there enjoying his turkey dinner a lot better right now, knowing there's just no way now they're going to get around him. By adding these two guys we'll be definitely better."

 

They also signed Woody freaking Williams that day and talked him up. What a joke of a franchise.
