This might be buried in that 39 page off-topic baseball thread, but in a sport's context in general, I think the MLB's decision to forbid Biggio from
continuing to wear a charity pin on his cap is a poor decision. The following article sums it up well:

Instead of making a spring-training allowance for players to sport a pin for their favorite, approved charity on a specific area of a cap, baseball's brand police acted quickly to force Biggio to remove a logo for the Sunshine Kids Foundation for young cancer patients.

A missed opportunity for some goodwill, imo - especially since the article points out
he has worn the pin for the past two decades.
What motivated this to be addressed?
