Stubhub gets a 15 Yard Penalty
NFL rules include (at the referee's discretion) flagging a 15 yard penalty for Taunting. MLB umps just give 'em the "yer outta here" thumb. Even Carlos Zambrano occasionally gets into the fun.
I received this e-mail today from Stubhub:
Where do you want to sit?
Hey Joseph,
Be there alongside your Chicago Cubs as they chase baseball immortality. Go to StubHub, where you’ll find a fantastic selection of tickets to every playoff game – so you experience the championship chase live and in person. Check it out. Go to StubHub and get the seats you want today.
Then a few hours later I got this apology:
Hi Joseph,
Earlier today, an email promoting Chicago Cubs postseason tickets was sent to you. This, unfortunately, was a mistake. We regret the error and apologize for any inconvenience or confusion this may have caused.
Sincerely,
The StubHub Team
CONFUSION?
That's about the only thing regarding the Cubs making the 2009 playoffs that I don't have.
TRICK OR TREAT?
I'd better check the apple in my goodie bag. Someone in the Stubhub house just might have mistakenly put a razor blade in it.
