My cousin is on Oprah today! - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Yes, that's right fellow TFP'ers... I just found out my cousin, N.ook Logan, who plays baseball for the Detroit Tigers will be on the Oprah show today.

Supposedly today's episode is about dreams coming true and there's some guy who's dream was to play baseball with the Tigers and so he gets that dream fulfilled and my cousin is one of the one's featured in the segment.

I was pretty excited about it. He was just recently signed for them after spending some time in the minor's and we come from a small town in Mississippi of humble upbringing so this is a big deal for our family.

Just thought I'd share. Tune in to today's (2/23) episode and check it out if ya want.

If Oprah didn't scare the hell outta me I would watch it.

Very cool.

Congratulations to Nook Logan.

It looks like his big league contract is for $300,000.
Set for arbitration in 2005.
I'll keep an eye on him this season.

Is his real name Exavier P. Logan?

Thats great! Grats on your cousins success.. I'll have to try to catch todays episode. Thanks for sharing.

illesturban · 02-23-2004, 04:22 PM

yea Giant Hamburger, "Nook" is just a nickname he's had since childhood; lol that's what we all call him. So yeah his real name is Exavier.

Thanks for all the nice comments guys.

OH and I caught the episode and was saddened to see that he didn't get to talk during it lmao. He was just shown for a few seconds a few times but you could see his name and jersey number so it was all good. I'm sure he'll have plenty of tv time in the future.

Thanks again y'all.
