Yes, but McDonald's doesn't lead to abusive households, deadly car accidents, and an overall projection of stupidity. Granted, McDonald's isn't great for you either, but that's not the point.

This is just like in every public High School in America. Shirts and backpacks advertising narcotic and alcoholic corporations are strictly banned. Why? Because kids in high school (and in this program) don't need that kind of exposure.

Alcohol is retarded. Every time I see someone drinking, I can't help but think less of them. Do people really need to make idiots of themselves to have a good time? Is this the image we want our students to have? It definitely isn't what I want for my kids. There are plenty of other outlets for sponsorship. Keep looking, and avoid conflict with other teams. I know I can't be the only one who feels like this.
