The Slanch Report

I’ve been a fan of the Cleveland Indians’ marketing staff all season, their bobblehead choices (here, here and here) have been particularly inspired. However, today’s promotion just seems a little off; all fans who enter tonight’s game against the Royals will receive an Indians logo fleece blanket. This seems like the perfect way to remember their truly offensive past logos. What a time!

Also, for some reason I just don’t associate free blankets and the Indians in a good light; that hasn’t gone so well in the past…

I’d say Progressive Insurance, who are sponsoring the giveaway, aren’t quite living up to their name.
