    Don't care what your politics are, you'd think companies would be smart enough to avoid making unforced errors on social media.

    I guess Ball wanted to let the world know who they are. Fine with me. I wasn't likely to purchases one of their watches anyway.

    What a dumb idea in so many ways. Not least of which, a company is made up of employees who all would have their own opinions. One can only hope the post was a hack on their facebook page, or perhaps their Social Media rep was drunk.
    Too many watches, not enough wrists.

    The modern Ball has long been clumsy in trying to present itself as American.
