AP: New 'Got Milk' Ad Upsets MLB Officials

SAN FRANCISCO - The latest "Got Milk?" commercial hit a little too close to home for Major League Baseball.

Poking fun at the sport's steroid scandal, the television ad for the California Milk Processor Board talks about a player getting pulled from a game "after testing positive for a performance-enhancing substance."

In the next scene, a coach pulls a carton of milk from the slugger's locker.

Not sure how I read this. On one hand, I can see the humor. On the other, it brings to mind images of tainted milk ala the A-Team spiking B.A.'s moo juice to sidestep his fear of flying.
