Biden Says He Would Support Moving All-Star Game Over Georgia Voting Law

[Pogo]

Who watches baseball anyways. Not 1 woman or trans athlete is allowed in the league.
All of baseball should be boycotted until a woman or trans person takes the mound!

Trevor Bauer is a woman.

Yanno what, since you've confessed to being a Brêves fan ---- I have a certain way of pronouncing the name "Dansby".....

 

[San Souci]

Did MLB miss the drop in the NBA fan base...stupid is as stupid does...and these morons didn't even read the GA bill....

Maybe CHINA can watch it. They support NBA. NFL is losing many fans. I was hoping Baseball ,being mostly Regular American ,could be reasonable. Looks like it ain't so.

Maybe they just don't care to cater to a bunch of white supremist hillbillies.

Oh ,yeah. 90 Percent of the fan base. In other words ,those who PAY their salaries.

Once AGAIN I noted in my OP that it hurts the city, and that that is unfortunate.

Look at the title of your OP. You take delight in it.

You can try that tripe with someone else, but just not me.

Generally if somebody starts a thread title with the word "Bwahaha" you can pretty much bank on the fact that they're getting a gaggle of giggles out of it, sure.

It looks like this

But as you said let's look at my title in full. It says "MLB pulls ASG out of Georgia". It does not say "MLB pulls ASG out of Atlanta". That word choice was, as always, intentional.

You are splitting hairs, Pogo. One only employs such an argumentative practice when their position is weak and indefensible.

I quoted myself DIRECTLY. And accurately. Doesn't get much stronger than that.

But you aren't defending your point. Which makes what you did or did not say in regards to the game's location, meaningless in the grand scheme of this discussion.

I like how you are trying to shift this discussion elsewhere, away from the subject matter in your own post.

You don't seem to care if this hurts African-American business owners in Atlanta, where the actual game would have been played.

You actually need me to tell you, for the FOURTH TIME, that I made that point ALREADY in my OP??

HELLO??? THIS THING ON??? KLUNK KLUNK

I'm a huge Braves fan. Wearing their cap right now. I was even going to try to go the the all star game. So not happy, but I totally support it.

“Deeply Disappointed” – Atlanta Braves SMACK MLB over decision to move All-Star Game out of Atlanta

The Atlanta Braves are not happy with the decision that the MLB commissioner made, moving the All-Star Game out of Atlanta over the new Georgia election law, and they want you to know about it: The…

No doubt. It sucks. It was supposed to be a huge celebration of Henry Aaron.

And still will be.
Maybe they'll move it to Milwaukee, where Aaron played more than half his career.

 

[progressive hunter]

YES. DO THIS: Rep. Jeff Duncan and TX Rep. Chip Roy are about to KICK the MLB right in the (BASE)BALLS

That’s right, INTERFERENCE. You know what Democrats say all the time? “Corporations aren’t people.” But they sure like it when corporations ACT as individuals, throwing thei…

There you go TK. Now you have somebody to argue the other side of that point. I'll just watch.

I wouldn't be hitting my head that hard if I were you.

I made the point that the inclusion of "Bwahaha" indicates you took joy in that decision. I wonder who brought up the location?

It wasn't me.

Maybe they dont want a league anymore?
I stopped watching basketball all together and that pretty much goes for the NFL as well.
I can do the same with MLB.

Wow, THAT'll bring 'em to their knees. Umma get Rob Manfred onna horn right away

You obviously havent been paying attention to attendance numbers.

Actually like most fans I've been watching sports on media that doesn't fucking show up on TV ratings because it's not on TV. I'd guess about fifteen years now.

Actually it was. Post 122 if not earlier. The one where you claimed I'd "forgotten" about Atlanta.

Again, the thread title doesn't say "Atlanta". The thread title says "Georgia". The thread title says "Georgia" rather than "Atlanta" deliberately. Because the MLB move is in response to what Georgia did, not to what Atlanta did.

 

[JimH52]

We get it, think and do as we do or else.

Nope...Stupidity and racism have no place in Georgia....and neither does the MLB All Star Game. I wonder how many trump humpers will refuse to watch baseball now? WHHAAAAA WHAAAA....they will whine like the Liar in Chief did when Biden beat his fat ars.

All Democrats HAVE is the Race card. Or the sissy card. Or the Transvestite card. Sick.

The GOPQ party is an embarrassment to humanity. They are always looking for some way to cheat in elections or keep people from voting. They know the party is dying. But they still hump the loser....trump.

Legislation has consequences.

That’s great, all those black people who work at the stadium sure must appreciate it.

This is more corporate warfare against conservatives and against democracy.

It will of course, backfire. Go woke, go broke.

Why do you think there are a lot of Black people who work at the stadium?

Yes. Have you ever been a professional game?

Has anyone ever been a professional game?

Now me, I've been TO professional game(s). In Atlanta. It's the closest MLB site to me, which is why MLB doesn't allow me to watch any game that involves the Braves.

 

[task0778]

This decision is not going to help MLB in the long run IMHO. Personally, I have watched my last baseball game. NBA basketball too. Haven't given up the NFL yet, but I'm getting there.

There you go again. It doesn't matter whether you said "Atlanta" or "Georgia."

I am taking issue with how this hurts the African American business owners of Atlanta, not with where the game is (or was) being played. I take issue with you showing apparent delight with this decision, not considering the greater ramifications it has on the people who would have benefited directly from the influx of revenue the ASG would have brought them, namely the minority business owners living in the city of Atlanta.

Specificity is something you don't seem to grasp very well at the moment.

Good!
But go further
Move the Braves games out of Georgia.
Block MLB tv coverage in Georgia
and
Then we talk about the NFL, College Football, NBA...

Good for you, you saw a game in Hotlanta. Me? SF, LA, Anaheim, Boston, Atlanta, St louis, Baltimore, Cleveland. Oakland and Seattle. You need to get out more.

MLB just did the equivalent of laying down for the national anthem. What the hell makes them think they are the voting police. It's obvious they don't know shit about it. And we should all take the time to welcome one of the countries greatest racists, Lebron James, to MLB. There goes the neighborhood. Fuck MLB

Bizzaro post, considering that one of baseball's many sins is that it's responsible for bringing that national anthem (actually it wasn't the national anthem yet at the time) INTO public sporting events where it had no business being. That was during the WWI jingoism hysteria. The same hysteria that would rip Dachshunds from their owners and stone them to death on the street simply because "Dachshund" is a German word. The same jingoist mob mentality that sentenced Earnest Starr to 10 to 20 hard labor for refusing a jingo-mob's demand that he kiss a flag.

Don't you think you're trying to extend this jingoism stuff a little too far? Or are you just trying to exhibit your superior historical knowledge of jingoism? Either way, MLB has no business in voting

Golf won't abandon Augusta. That means golf is far more intelligent than baseball. So I propose that golf is now the American pastime.
