The Chicago Sun-Times talked with Cubs rookie pitcher Jeff Samardzija about his decision to play baseball over NFL.  Samardzija was an All-America wide receiver with Notre Dame but chose to play baseball instead. 

Even with the NFL season starting this week, Samardzija said he has no regrets.  ''I'm not like that. I feel like I made a decision, I made the right decision, and on top of that I'm not going back on my word.''   He promised publicly when he signed his $10 million Cubs deal to give back the money if he bailed on baseball for the NFL.
