Photo: Inquirer Has Phillies Winning World Series
Filed under: Photo of the Day
Jimmy Rollins’ prediction on the Jay Leno Show that the Phillies would win the World Series in Five Games has nothing on this as far as motivational material for the Yankees.
From the Inquirer:
A Message To Our Readers,
A Macy’s advertisement in today’s Inquirer incorrectly offered Phillies 2009 World Championship merchandise. The Inquirer deeply regrets this error. Macy’s is a great corporate citizen, supporter of this region and our sports teams. We apologize for this error and any inconvenience this caused.
Sincerely,
Howard Griffin
Vice President, National Advertising

What a mess.

No Macy’s had the Phillies winning the World Series. All the Inquirer did was publish an ad(which was submitted days ago).

The inquirer was, in no way, supposed to run this ad – and there is no doubt that Macy’s and MLB are pissed as all hell.
