so I do hope that Crane fights this a bit harder....the league already held up approval of his purchase of the team until he agreed to allow them to move the team from the NL to the AL.

Seriously, people, it's just a logo....they don't actually shoot. Next the league's going to demand that they cut out the video sequence that's the home run celebration when an Astro hits a 4-bagger.
