But probably not so bad for some outfit called Williams Sports Videos, who posted the video to YouTube and is running advertising with it. Although I doubt I would use a company that deliberately publicized an ugly incident to boost their sales - in the process getting my sport getting raked over the coals - maybe they'll turn some extra profit. Maybe this is what marketing has come to. Whatever it takes to turn a buck, right?
But they sure didn't do girls fastpitch any favors here.
Yes definitely!! and while we are at it we should take a second look at Heybucket for providing a forum for discussion about these events. Aren't they also collecting ad revenue and contributing the smearing of girls fastpitch?
