Baseball, hot dogs, apple pie and pornography. That’s what you’ll get if you watch the St. Louis Cardinals on TV. Every fan I know has remarked on the filthy Hardee’s commercial featuring a nearly nude woman writhing in soap suds. It’s pornography, pure and simple.

A few Sundays ago I sat down with my family after church to watch the Cardinals. When this commercial came on, my 86-year-old mother, almost in tears said, “Why do they have to do this?” My 13-year-old granddaughter hid her face and my 11-year-old grandson was so embarrassed, he didn’t know where to look. My 89-year-old father — who played baseball in the St. Louis Browns organization — apologized “I’m sorry this is on my TV,” as if it were his fault.

Then it came on again, and my mom grabbed for the remote to try to turn the channel. We were all embarrassed. And then it came on again, and I got mad.

I couldn’t help but think of Stan Musial, the standard bearer of the Cardinals and a man of impeccable character. He had to be looking down from heaven with tears in his eyes.

Since then, I’ve called the offices of team owner Bill DeWitt Jr. and president Bill DeWitt III and left five messages. I have not had the courtesy of a return phone call. Unfortunately, Hardee’s money trumps fans' concerns. Maybe thousands need to call the DeWitts. Will they listen?

This. If this guy is such a moralist, why is he watching a team synonymous with beer? I have two kids, and plenty of sports on tv. When they are older, I am prepared to talk about the misrepresentation of alcohol consumption, the objectification of women, as you mentioned above, and God knows what else. Sex sells, especially to the main demographic of sports watchers. Anyone who has a problem with this should, at the very least, cease watching live sports.

Personally, I find those commercials lame because I hate fast food and, maybe I'm getting old and prude, but I'm just not interested in seeing hot chicks I have 0 chance of banging. If my wife wants to films herself in skimpy clothes eating some grilled chicken, I'd watch that.

Yet nobody cries when a dismembered body is shown on a CBS early game for a CSI commercial.

I boycott Carl's, Jr., specifically because of their commercials. I have no problem with the near-nudity, but the sounds of people eating are like fingernails on a chalkboard to me. When they have those commercials of people chewing, it disgusts me beyond belief. I would rather see and hear commercials of the bulimic models vomiting up the burgers than hear the sounds of chewing.
