About the Author

Cougar2000
There are some things about sports I don't like... the New Yuck Muts, the University of Michigan and those ASSCRACK UGLY HELMETS, the Floridamn Gayturds and the Miami Crimicanes. I also think that NASCRAP and professional wrestling are a HUGE waste of air time on television and would rather watch women's Jello wrestling!

Music rethinking Spitzer night

The Macon Music, a team in the independent South Coast League, planned on having a night spoofing the exploits of former New York governor Eliot Spitzer on June 13th against the Aiken (South Carolina) Foxhounds. After a lot of air time on shows such as ESPN's Mike and Mike, as well as Fox News, the team is rethinking their plans for the night.

In a statement issued by assistant general manager Jason Gold, the team is asking the public for feedback as to if the night survives or not. There are some that feel the night in question should go forward, while others think that the idea is bad. The team is asking for that feedback in the form of a poll on their website, which started March 16th and will end at Noon on the 22nd. Personally, I think that they should go for it. After all, people can choose to come to the historic ballpark, the third oldest in the nation behind Fenway Park and Tiger Stadium or not. That's their choice. I am hoping to get a summer job with the ballclub as part of my major. Stay tuned for that.

Voting and results can tracked on the team's website, www.maconbaseball.com and the results will be announced that day.

Oh... and for the record, I voted for it.

Any idea on what they were actually planning on doing?

Not yet. I've got friends that still live there and they're keeping me in the loop on this.

Tay:

Some of the promotions are for that night:

If your name is Eliot, Spitzer or Kristen, you'll get a buck off your admission. Same deal for fans from the Big Apple and "fans who have ever resigned any position."

Attendees could also win a trip to New York and a one-night stay at the Mayflower Hotel.

Other fan friendly gimmies include the ninth fan getting a prize and the 871st fan getting a gift certificate from the team store.

Should be a 2 for 1 ticket offer but only if you bring a hooker to the game.

Agreed. Minor league promotions used to be creative, interesting and fun. Now they're usually just played out.
