When a visiting rooster flew the coop, the people of Cullman stepped up to help reunite the owner with his feathered friend.
It all started when 18-year-old Thomas Ramsey, a student at Copiah Academy in Gallman, Miss., and founder of the Muddy Rabbits Mess, a 32-member military reenactment group and the largest youth group nationally, was returning from a Civil War reenactment in Springhill, Tenn., and stopped for lunch on Jan. 31 at Cracker Barrel in Cullman. With him was his friend Jonas Patrick and his Buff Orpington rooster, Peep.

The Red Sox finally signed their man.
Boston inked outfielder Hunter Renfroe to a one-year, $3.1 million contract on Monday 10 years after drafting him. The deal includes $600,000 in potential incentives.
The Red Sox selected Renfroe in the 31st round of the 2010 MLB Draft. But he kept his commitment to play for Mississippi State instead of signing with Boston. The Padres then drafted him 13th overall in the 2013 Draft.
