Beerball Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 has announced a promotion for Mother's day. The first 25,000 fans will receive a red tote bag as part of a Mother's Day promotion. Last year they offered pink totes to all adult female customers. Apparently a LA psychologist has sued the team because he didn't receive his pink tote. He's told the Angles that he (and every other adult male who was in attendance) should receive $4,000 because they were discriminated against. So the Angles cave in this year. Douchebags, all of 'em.

Beerball Posted May 11, 2006 Author Share Posted May 11, 2006 I don't know about you, but I'm pretty tired of that stuff. 689546[/snapback] They have a huge cancer survivors 'rally' here each year. Hundreds of survivors have their names announced based on the year they were diagnosed. They all do at least one lap around the track while getting quite an ovation. Actually very moving, and it raises much money. It goes on through the next morning, with teams walking laps to raise cash. I always participate with my kids cause our family like most has been touched by one form or another. Pink bats? Don't see how that will help. Raise awareness? Who doesn't know?

Who doesn't know? 689562[/snapback] Exactly. Cancer sucks, we don't need some over paid ball players doing some feel good stunt. We need a cure and I don't think pink bats are the answer.

All proceeds go to the breast cancer foundation ALL PROCEEDS.....not just percent type sh-- you have going on at stores and so on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDBillzFan Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 If you're at home plate in Angle stadium, and wanted to hit a home run over the head of the shortstop, does anyone know what angel you would have to hit the ball? I really can't get an angel on it and could use some help when I don't have an angle looking over my shoulder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
