Fictional Empires to have plain unis on series
When CBS announced its new fall lineup last May, I remeber reading that their new show "Clubhouse" would be about a batboy for the New York Yankees. Now it seems like the series is distancing itself from the Yankess -- at the Bronx Bombers' insistance.
It turns out, the team in the show is actually going to be called the New York Empires, but would be based on the Yankees -- complete with pinstripes.
However, it seems the Yankees don't like that they have no creative input in the series. For example, I'm sure they were uncomfortable with a plotline in the pilot episode that involves a player on steroids.
The solution? According to ESPN.com CBS has agreed to go back and digitally remove each and every pinstripe from each and every uniform.
