Italian baseball team parodies “Major League,” adds racism
By Dan Zinski
Watch now as a very funny concept for a parody commercial, starring an Italian baseball team, veers into an incredibly uncomfortable and racist area.
As Ted Danson and Julianne Hough both discovered…don’t go there.
Ever.
Otherwise it’s a cute commercial. It reminded me I haven’t watched Major League lately. I think I’ll download it.
Sadly, the spot also reminded me of Al Jolson. And I try very hard never to be reminded of Al Jolson.
