Would you want a coffin/urn showing your team loyalty?

Each urn will be stamped with a message saying Major League Baseball officially recognizes the deceased as a lifelong fan of that team.

A different quote from the same article says....

Quote:

After starting with baseball, Eternal Image hopes to branch out by making similar deals with the NFL, the NHL and NASCAR.

The NHL might needs a coffin of it's own for the league. "Here lies the NHL.... killed by mismanagement".

Is the NHL starting to gain fans back or is my interest only attributed to the recent purchase of Eastside Hockey Manager?

I totally want to be buried in an A's coffin. I'm forwarding this link to my husband now.

Don't know why this memory suddenly popped back, but I can remember getting a haircut prior to one of the three years I went to the series to watch the A's (72, 73, and 74). I proudly told the guy giving me a haircut that I was going out of town to the series to watch the Athletics. He said "I guess that makes you an athletic supporter". I was confused and said "yes" and the whole barbershop cracked up. At the time, I had no idea why.

Probably. I've asked to have a redskins flag draped over my casket.
