Tigers sign David Cook

... THIS is American Idol!

And the scouting report from Mr. Bill Simmons after seeing him in LA for game 3:

Really, only one thing stood out: David Cook singing the national anthem with "I love being famous, I am getting laid nonstop" vigor. I have to say, the kid is a star. He carried himself like one of the biggest stars in the building (and maybe he was). Still, I couldn't help but think about how much fun it would have been had David Archuleta won "American Idol" and gotten the Game 3 assignment, then sang the anthem and done his sheepish, overwhelmed, "Oh my God, I can't believe you guys liked it, I'm fighting back the tears" routine as KG stared him down and waited for him to get off the court. That would have been fantastic.
