Take Me Out to the Ball Game

What ball game? Oh, you mean the loud reality show and nine-inning commercial for which the game is the background setting?

Writes Richard Lawrence Cohen:

"Love this game? Worship this game? When you really love doing something, you don’t need a loudspeaker telling you that you do. Corporate America has come to seem like an anxious, oversolicitous parent, throwing every possible game and toy and overblown enrichment at its children in the desperate hope that they won’t get bored and rebel."
