I don't see anything wrong with this.....they didn't force him to take it off, they just in the future they don't want him wearing their competitor's clothing. And I'm sure he gets tons of free merchandise from Nike anyways.

I think this was the front office doing the managing for Mike Matheny. Matheny kept throwing Allen Craig, he of the .240 batting average this year, in the middle of the lineup, apparently expecting a different result than what had been happening all year.

Two outs, tied game, bottom of the 9th, runner on 2nd, 0-2 count, Adrian Gonzalez on deck = clearly no intent.

and just to prove she's a stand up gal, she posts it for all the world to see....awesome.

It's nice to finally see the wife of a Raven drag their husband into something for once.

Majority of internet/population says "who are these people and why do I care?"

I enjoy a nice tweet, as much as the next guy. But going to twitter feeds and trying to understand who the fuck is replying to who is totally confusing.

true, now, whoever got the fake Asian names on tv a year or so ago after that plane crashed in SF on landing. now that was humor.
