If You Don’t Like an Ad, Call Your Lawyer. It’s the American Way

Oh for fuck’s sake. Get over yourselves! You want to sue because a marketer pokes fun at your business? Can we just kill all the lawyers now? Or, rather, the stupid laws that enable them to file lawsuits for the most ridiculous reasons?

OK, so no lawsuit has yet been filed but Rico Gerardo, owner of the San Francisco restaurant Taqueria, wants to talk to his lawyer because Comcast SportsNet has placed an as near his restaurant which reads, “I don’t know where a good burrito is, but I know where the A’s are”

Can we just stop the insanity? Please? Comcast isn’t slamming Mexican restaurants. They are trying to be witty with their advertising. Whether or not they accomplished the attempt at witticism is fodder for another discussion but Comcast isn’t calling area resident idiots or trashing restaurants. Get over yourselves.
