Detroit Tigers pitcher Justin Verlander backed off using an “All Lives Matter” hashtag after a backlash on social media. On Sunday, while viewing the Toronto Blue Jays’ complete their sweep of the Texas Rangers in the American League Divisional Series, Verlander grew impressed with TBS broadcasters singing word for word the Canadian national anthem. Immediately Verlander reflected on “Black Lives Matter” sympathizer Colin Kaepernick and his legion of followers who don’t even stand for America’s national anthem, let alone sing the words.

If I were Verlander, I wouldn’t care what anyone says.

Verlander stated a fact...he should stand up to the bullies, All Lives DO MATTER...he let political correctness shut him up. Another dumbed down American.

As an ex Tiger fan, I suspect that Verlander's days are now over.........But not to worry Justin, you got your billions and Kate Upton too............and your stupid Tiger fans are paying for your new life of luxury.

If “All Lives Matter” as a logical consequences, Black Lives Matter.

I'm a Yankee fan since Mickey Mantle was a rookie. I feel your pain. We're a bit short on pitching at the moment. We would send you Pineda for Verlander whose "days are now over" especially if you throw in eye candy like Kate Upton.

Much respect to Justin Verlander. He dated Kate Upton and gets it with that BLM crap.
