The Creativity of Minor League Baseball at Work: Saints Drop the “S”

I found this one on The Huffington Post‘s local section for Los Angeles. The content originally appeared as a report in the Los Angeles Times .

FMC: The Oneders Propel Calipari to His First Title
He’s one of the most divisive men in sports.

Burger King Supplanted as No. 2 in Burgerland
If you mention the words “hamburger” or “burger joint” to a group of people in Los Angeles, you’re going to start an argument.
