Join salty-tongued baseball manager Dick Williams as he philosophizes on the merits of BB gun ownership

All baseball managers come pre-installed with chewing tobacco and a profane vocabulary, so I’m a bit surprised this ad didn’t have a few more four-letter words and barnyard allusions. And, apart from the obvious coordination benefits, I’m skeptical about the baseball cross-training advantages of BB guns that Mr. Williams advocates here. “Your team slumping at the plate? Get them Daisies!”

Still, this is less eyebrow-arching than classroom ads and living room shooting galleries.
