Considering that the much ballyhooed Tom Cruise-led film slash reboot, not reboot The Mummy is not getting the greatest reviews (I’ll probably see it anyway, it looks good to me and screw the critics), this faux pas by the MLB Network might actually raise ticket sales.
As you will see below, in their attempt to promote both their upcoming broadcast of the Rockies and Cubs game, while at the same time touting the upcoming release of The Mummy, the two graphics did not exactly mesh together quite as I’m sure the network had anticipated.

Note the perfect date for the movie, by the way. June 9th or 6/9. Nice.
So how long until some porn company actually comes out with a parody of the film called The Cummy? Gotta be no more than three, four days tops, right?
Needless to say, Twitter had a ball, so to speak, with this hilarious blooper…
Ah yes. Starring Tom Spooge, if I'm not mistaken.

If there wasn't a porn with that name, there certainly is now…

Still seeing it. On demand. In the privacy of my home. You know, just in case.
