I guess even baseball fans get an occasional break in the monotony:

"MLB bans women who flashed their chests behind home plate during Game 5 of World Series"

Apparently it was not so much the wardrobe malfunction itself as the crass and venal promotion of a business that gave offense:

"MLB spokesman Michael Teevan told USA TODAY Sports that the league has 'distributed a letter to the individuals in question, and the letter set for an indefinite ban for each.'
The league's letter informed the women that they violated the league's code of fan conduct by exposing themselves to 'promote a business.' "

After all, real sponsors pony up hundreds of thousands of dollars for the right to expose their products on national television.

:uncomfortableness:

Y'know, the true import of this little phrase just sank in:

"The league's code of fan conduct"..

Say what?!?!?!?

OK, so there is such an animal and in fact this one actually makes pretty good sense:
"Obscene or indecent clothing is prohibited. Footwear is required at all times."
Yep. Who hasn't been involuntarily exposed to some pretty outrageous feet in their time?

What, no pics?

This guy needs to see an ear, nose and foot doctor.

I got my psychiatrist's Rx mixed up with the podiatrist's and now my athlete's foot is driving me crazy.
But the podiatrist says it's all in my head.
I told him well then I might as well stop taking my meds but he really put his foot down.
