This seems pretty stupid to me. Especially this quote.
Actually, they're not endangering the health of millions of children. This kind of piggy backs along with the banning of happy meals in California. Just ridiculous in my opinion. http://espn.go.com/mlb/playoffs/2011/story/_/id/7118541/2011-world-series-senators-urge-baseball-ban-tobacco |

Thats because you are against freedom. |

Jim Leyland used to smoke heaters all the time when he was Pittsburgh's manager, and it always seemed odd.

I've seen Leyland do it in the past. I say we just ban Selig and this stupid "whoever wins the All-Star Game" obtains home field advantage for the World Series. Just one of the many stupid "rules" this commission has come up with. Last I checked, tobacco was legal in every state in the country. Why the stronghold in an outdoor profession? What's next, you can't smoke outside either? And why just the World Series, why not in every MLB game? Just another example of power in the hands of old fucks that have nothing better to do than to wield it. |

If I'm not mistaken, tobacco is banned in the minors. So MLB is already setting an example. If a grown man wants to chew tobacco, fuck Selig and congress.
