Jeremy Piven, who plays the only character worth watching "Entourage" for, sang "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" during the seventh inning stretch at Wrigley yesterday.  Piven wanted to incorporate his signature "let's hug it out, bitch" line at the end of the song.  Obviously the Cubs weren't too excited about Piven saying "bitch" over the P.A. system, so they agreed on "hug it out, Cubs fans!"  Lame, I know.  Apparently Piven found it boring as well.

At the end of the song, Piven decided to go off script and yell "let's hug it out, you little bitches!"  Now that's funny (unless, of course, you're at the game with your young children for a nice family Father's Day outing).  You can watch video of him singing "Take Me Out to the Ballgame," but the video has been edited as to remove all comedic aspects. 

The Cubs marketing chief was extremely please, as you can imagine: "I don't know if professional adrenaline took over, but we don't ever want to introduce profanity into the seventh-inning stretch."
