See the sign behind home plate? It doesn't exist.

Green screen. FOX inserts advertisements on it for the TV signal.

Can we get election results on there?

1. can we make it go away?

2. Cause it's Wrigley Field.

It's a strictly traditional ballpark, and I like that.

3. Don't you have to watch the game or something to see the sign???

The Cubs HAVE to win...it's in the CARDS...though not the CARDINALS? I am NOT a baseball fan..but I know one thing....Chicago is DUE for a win...when was the last time baseball fans tore up THAT city?

I have to start watching sports so I can figure out what you're talking about. :)

Congrats on the Cubbies.

5. They've been doing that for a while

Gets easier to see which ads are real and which are inserts, though the technical ability is amazing.

The point is WHY do it? I watch a game and as the years go by see more and more adverts. I look at the name and don't ditzily think "Gee, I'm going to use their service just because I saw their name on the telly." Anybody who does that must be a dimboid*...
