Tell me this, for all that stuff I read in the Annual about the analysis that goes into the pricing schedule, why the hell would they have 5 straight great promotions over a summer weekend with school winding down against semi-local fan bases (where good crowds are pretty much guaranteed), with no good promotions midweek against the Royals when crowds were bound to be less than great?

is this a gluten thing? like, uh, is that celiac disease?

by DontCallMeJoey on Jun 11, 2009 10:33 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I tested negative for celiac, but it is the gluten I have the actual allergy to (most allergens are proteins).

Gluten, soy, and peanuts are three things I tested positive for when I had broad spectrum allergy testing done, but I only vaguely react to the gluten at this point. My allergist told me that eventually they would become full blown.

Basically the only environmental allergens I don’t react to are bees and roaches. Go me!

See, the unimaginative advertisement is J.D. Drew doing the ad.

The better ad is his wife, and it starts with, “Hi, I wake up every morning next to J.D. Drew, and…”

And really, I guess that’s the rationale for making no real attempts to remove the birds. Our outfielders are used to them. It’s like our own personal animated green monster.
