Message #5083 of 6634  *NEW* To :   All From :   Rob Reed   Subject :   Sign #1,098,276 that commercialism is helping to ruin baseball: MLB bans bottled water in the clubhouse Date :   4/24/08, 12:55pm Because MLB has a commercial contract with Gatorade, players can only be seen drinking said liquid (or presumably WATER from Gatorade cups, I guess) while in the dugout. The threatened punishment for bottled water in the dugout is to completely remove it from the clubhouse. Excellent. This is a page right out of Idiocracy. Perhaps the groundskeepers should "water" the playing fields with Gatorade... because grass loves electrolytes! • Previous Topic • Next Topic • Reply to Msg #5083 • Back to Topics 2955 reads 1976 clickthrough(s) You cannot start a topic in the Headlines or Classifieds area... if you want to post a new message, try one of our other message areas!

I'm glad to see someone else watched that movie. This reminds of Major League 2 with the billboards on the outfield wall. The game is no longer a game, it's a giant, walking ad. Bud Selig, why do you want your fans to hate this game so much? • Previous Topic • Next Topic • Reply to Msg #5086 • Back to Topics 3905 reads
