Breaking News: New Kid on the Knoblauch

Apparently Chuck Knoblauch was not hiding out in Mexico, with or without Jessica Simpson. Knobby had not returned calls from congressional contacts and was nowhere to be found when they tried to subpoena him. Knobby was probably just getting all his ducks in a row- translation: talking to some lawyers first.

Earlier today, the former Yankees 2nd Baseman agreed to talk to the House committee, investigating steroid use, this Friday. A deposition will be taken in preparation for formal hearings on February 13.

"We are pleased that Mr. Knoblauch has agreed to voluntarily participate in a transcribed interview or deposition with the committee. As a result, the Committee is withdrawing the subpoena," House Oversight and Government Reform Committee chairman Henry Waxman and ranking Republican Tom Davis said in a statement.

Good luck Knobby...if you have to hit one of their mothers in the head with a glass of water.
