Sort-of Saving Second Base
Oct 20, 2007 Uncategorized
As the Colorado Rockies prepare for their first World Series, it is interesting that something else has popped up in the news. It seems that Haley and Jessica, two girls from a Salina Kansas high school, decided to raise some money for breast cancer charities by selling a t-shirt. Unfortnately their plan ran into a couple of snags.
First, their high school refused to allow them to sell the shirts at football games because officials determined the design, two baseballs over the words Save 2nd Base, was inappropriate for high school. Sorry, Ward Cleavers of the world, on this one we disagree. However, the design they used had already been trademarked by the Rooney Foundation, which had every right to ask the girls to stop selling the shirts.
Great idea, we applaud your spunk and determination Haley and Jessica-you both should have bright careers ahead of you.
We’ll be watching for your next–original–idea!
Quack!
