Banned: The rally towel

OK, maybe not banned, but I was pleased to see the Tigers announced today they will stop giving away those stupid rally towels that people were twirling during the league championship series.

Here's my thing with rally towels. They were pretty cool the first time or first few times. I still remember when Minnesota Twins fans used them in the early 90's and the whole stadium was this sea of white. But now they're such a cliche. It's like an official announcement goes out that your team is moving through the playoffs and might be pretty good so we better get a bunch of these stupid towels so fans can waive them when they're too bored to pay attention to THE WORLD SERIES!!!

I mean if ever there was a special team, it's this year's Tigers. So why are we borrowing everyone's else's stupid towel thing. I say goodbye and good riddence.
