PHILADELPHIA -- Many crazed baseball fans have said they would die for a championship. And now they can take their devotion to the grave.
A new venture will put Major League Baseball team logos on urns and caskets.
The league and Eternal Image, a company that makes funeral products, will let fans be decked out in their team colors and logos for eternity.
Starting next season, Yankees, Red Sox, Tigers, Phillies, Cubs and Dodgers fans will be able to have cremation urns or their caskets emblazoned with their team colors and insignia.
Major League Baseball has entered into a licensing agreement with Eternal Image, which hopes to eventually make urns and caskets with for all 30 teams.
The company also hopes to have agreements with NASCAR, the NHL and the NFL.

that'd be kickass to have a steelers logo on my casket.
it's already in my will that i'm buried in my steelers hat and shirt.
nothing tops the steelers fan last year who's viewing was him set up on a recliner watching the steelers. that was awesome, but i wouldn't go that far.

yeah, not a cool one though. i don't really have anything to leave behind. but i had one made basically because i want to make sure i'm buried here in ohio and i don't want my services to be conducted by a priest or held in a church.
and when i told my mom this years ago she flipped out at me for bringing it up, so i had the will made. because without it, i know she'd have me buried in indiana and have a priest do the services. and she also would want me in a suit and not my steelers shit.

If that's the reason, then you aren't very mature.

one of the big reasons is the fans.

the eagles are going to kill me so i don't see a need to drive the point home by putting them on my casket too.
