Product placement

Dodgers: a professional baseball team. It merely appears as a logo on a jersey, and removing it would not change what happens in the video. Max Clark: a baseball player.

Are we fucking serious? The dodgers? See, I knew Scobo was going to get traded for a while. I knew he was not going to come back to Detroit, our owner would not pay him, but out of every single team he could have gone to. The dodgers. Are we genuinely serious? What the fuck? Baseball is just ruined at this point like, what's the point to even watch anymore? Max Clark is my only hope. I have zero hope left.
