Minor League Baseball Team Takes Boondocks Idea

The Gateway Grizzlies, a minor league team from the Frontier League, has introduced a new food item. Here is an excerpt from the teams website, dated March 8, 2006:

"The Grizzlies and Krispy Kreme Doughnuts have teamed up to create 'Baseball’s Best Burger.' The burger... consists of a thick and juicy burger topped with sharp cheddar cheese and two slices of bacon. The burger is then placed in between each side of a Krispy Kreme Original Glazed doughnut."

This food item sounded very familiar. It reminded me of an episode of Aaron McGruder The Boondocks called The Itis, which aired in January. The burger 'The Luther,' named after Luther Vandross, the ingredients of which are 4-pounds of beef, covered in cheese, fried onions, 5 strips of bacon, all smothered between 2 Krispy Kreme donuts.

Clearly the minor league baseball organization stole the idea from Aaron McGruder. They should give him a percentage of their profits and a sum of money for the distress that he has been caused. In addition, since I uncovered the theft, I should receive a percentage of the money that Mr. McGruder will acquire.
