Today when sports fans in Chicago have a great
reason to celebrate there are a segment of sports fans who
find something negative!
Chicago - Fans at Wrigley Field let out loud boos when the BP
Crosstown Cup was presented Friday afternoon before the Chicago Cubs
game against the White Sox.
BP, which is under fire for its
handling of the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, just became a sponsor
of the traditional Crosstown Classic series between the Cubs and Sox.
Fans say when the cup came out before the game people started yelling and booing.
The
cup goes to the winner of the crosstown series or the team that wins
the final game if there's a split out of the six games played.
Both
teams sent out press releases Friday saying they plan to stay with BP
as the sponsor but promotions during the games have been scaled back.
You know I haven't exactly been following this disaster, but from what I do know my finger isn't only pointed at BP. My finger is pointed at our government! BP isn't the only one we should be booing!
