Fenway Franks

So the Catholic Church in Boston has refused to issue a dispensation for the faithful who wish to eat hot dogs and sausages at the Red Sox' home opener on Good Friday. The jokes just write themselves sometime, where does one even begin? Myself, I'm torn between "Doesn't the Archdiocese of Boston already have enough problems in the wiener department?", "Seriously, people, how much actual meat is really in a hot dog?", and "Shut the hell up and eat your goddamn hot dog! See you in the Underworld!"

Any religion that says I can't have a steak on Friday...I'll pass thanks.

EDIT: here's the link to the story - LINK

In related news team officials announced that Fenway Park with be lifted from its foundation and turned 15 degrees so that home plate faces Mecca. Failure to do so would be SO insensitive to their Muslim fans.
