    The double-A Akron Aeros have been rebranded. I wonder if their fight song will be "Rubberducky, you're the one.'

    And the Worcester Future's League summer team is getting a anew nickname as well. Not very inspired choices, IMHO.

    Please let the board's betters weigh in on which ones are offensive before we go any further.

    Humans don't get to decide if rubber duckies are offended by this.

    I nominate Kris Kristofferson to throw out the first pitch and/or sing the national anthem at the season opener.

    Instantly became C.W. McCall's favorite team.
