    Wheaties -- breakfast of ???

    Why isn't Coco Crisp a spokesman for General Mills?

    What's the ugly truth behind Dan Uggla not doing commercials for Uggs?

    Is there any reason Mike Trout hasn't signed on with Mrs.Paul's?

    Can't find a job? How come Joba Chamberlain isn't pitching for Monster.com?


    Can you add to this last...or are you just too busy watching baseball?
