I received my first minor-league baseball promotional e-mail of the season on Monday morning, and it was a good one. Some highlights from the Potomac Nationals season preview:

* On April 15, the P-Nats will celebrate the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic by allowing women and children into the ballpark 15 minutes before men. So, so amazing.

* The team will also have a Presidential-campaign themed bobblehead night at some point, likely featuring the heads of Barack Obama and the Republican nominee.

This is a layup: The Titanic and Obama = two disasters.

Now this is just asking for trouble from the Transgendered crowd.

Their PR Director wants to make light of the death of a few hundred people? Classy.

If Romney wins the nomination, they can make one bobblehead with Obama on one side and Romney on the other to demonstrate our real choice in this election: two faces, one outcome.

Obama will observe a remembrance of the suinking of the Titanic by sinking our economy.

I've got season's tickets to the Potomac Nationals, and they are worth every penny. They really know how to take care of the fans, and I would rather watch a young ambitious player trying to make a name for themselves rather than some overpaid major leaguer just mailing it in. Some of the notable alumni of the PNats include, Rick Ankiel, Magglio Ordóñez, Barry Bonds, Bobby Bonilla, Bernie Williams, Andy Pettitte, Albert Pujols, Coco Crisp, Braden Looper, Brad Ausmus, Jorge Posada, and Edwin Encarnacion
