Say It Aint So, or say it is Aint, news story
My how times have changed. Business world is allowing atheist sponsership of sports for charity.

Minor Leage baseball game sponsored by atheists changes Saints name to Aints.

Quote:Saints executive Derek Sharrer says the club has "no intention of mocking or making fun of anyone's faith."

Lol to be fair, that doesn't seem strictly true from reading that. But hey, it's pretty funny.

Money talks - bullshit walks and religion is the ultimate bullshit.

The Saints are a treasured local franchise. Their games frequently employ self-effacing humor and are intimately tied to the local fan base. Not to mention that this is a very blue state. (Remember Paul Wellstone? Al Franken?)

I haven't quite decided whether to pop for the "Ain'ts" T-shirts they will be selling, but I'm fully looking forward to a good time. (I already own two MNA shirts, so, like, whatever.)

(Actually, I just peeked; they're kinda cool. My MNA shirt from Halloween is black and orange, and it never gets worn. However, they want $69 for the jersey. That soooo ain't happening.)

(The event is organized and sponsored by my local atheist group, Minnesota Atheists.)
