From "Slugger Andruw Jones wants to prove he’s not done" at Yahoo! Sports: Now 32, [Andruw] Jones is a part-time player in Texas trying to prove that what once seemed to be a sure-bet Hall of Fame career isn’t done yet. "Every year when I have a goal, it's just to have a better year than I had the year before," Jones said, a slight grin creeping onto his face before finishing his thought. "I think that's kind of accomplished already." (Emphasis mine.) You bet that was accomplished already, Andruw. It was accomplished the first time you visited the bathroom after signing with the Rangers.
