Team Names Pig Mascot "Alternative Fats." 

(St. Paul, MN) -- A minor league baseball team in Minnesota is taking a page out of the current political landscape in announcing the name of its latest mascot pig. The St. Paul Saints presented their new ball pig named "Alternative Fats" during a Facebook Live stream, in a nod to Trump aide Kellyanne Conway's term "alternative facts." The team said it received a record number of entries in this year's "Name the Pig Contest," many of them politically themed. The team has had a pig mascot every year since 1993. I do miss those days umpiring in the Northern League!

Beer Maker Heineken Has A Message For All Drunk Drivers

Amsterdam police said over Facebook the 22-year-old driver was immediately arrested and it appears no one was seriously injured in the crash. But, when you do drink…grab a hiney!
