The odd thing about this is that if it were Heyman/Nightengale/Bowden reporting it were true and Morosi saying it was bogus, this thread would be 10 posts long

He's too weak to handle his own at the Kowloon? Classic Bloom move.
Bunch of Japanese headlines coming out now:

*ブレズローと二刀流の大谷が九龍でマイタイを
*二刀を持ってカオルーンの駐車場でナイフファイトを引き止める大谷

Thank jebus Ohtani thought to bring his swords.

(My translation was "*Breslow and dual-wielding Otani have Mai Tai in Kowloon
*Otani with two swords stops a knife fight in a Kowloon parking lot")

Today, I posted reporting that included inaccurate information that Shohei Ohtani was traveling to Toronto. I regret the mistake and apologize to baseball fans everywhere. I am deeply sorry for letting you down.

Breaking:
Shohei Ohtani has signed a letter of intent to play Basketball at NDSCS in Wahpeton, ND forgoing his MLB career for a quiet life of playing basketball in the NJCAA division and having pizza on campus and playing pool with his teammates.
Shohei was quoted saying, "I really like the small town atmosphere and the 2 Cenex gas stations in town is very convenient."
I played college baseball with a guy from Wahpeton. Nice little town.

My favorite Twitter conspiracy is that Ohtani actually is in Toronto and that he and CAA coerced Heyman/Nightengale/Bowden to deny and Morosi to retract because he wanted to announce himself.

Why would three baseball writers sit on the absolute biggest story of the offseason, maybe the biggest story in sports right now? There’s no way that would happen.

If they did, all three of them should be fired from their jobs.

What's interesting is that I think this is the kind of thing people are talking about when they say that they want MLB's offseason to generate interest the way the NBA's does. Maybe kind of the monkey's paw version a little bit, but still.
