Changing the venue would be ultimately more destructive to MLB than the ‘94 strike.

How much does MLB have to pay those two fake priests to make this problem go away?

If MLB caves, MLB will cease to exist. Fans aren’t over the strike in the 90s. Add a bunch of PC race-bating and we’ll stop going.

Hey racist idiots Jackass and Sharptongue!

Are you talking about American citizen Latinos, or illegal Latinos?

We love legal Latinos! You don’t seem to know the difference.

Traitors.

I don’t see how that is even feasible, they would have to cancel the entire event. These things take years to plan.

“The white-hating self-promoting race pimps are at it again.”

Sharpton and Jackson are worn out caricatures nobody pays attention to anymore. Their shakedown schemes lined their pockets decades ago, but that dog just don't hunt today. I know of no Hispanics that think either of these jokers are worth a crap.

If the MLB pulls their support, they will make a huge mistake.

Even if Bud Selig makes his decision based strictly on business (rather than politics, ideology or patriotism), leaving the All-Star Game in Arizona is obvious choice. All of the polls show a clear majority of the People support what Arizona has done. Also, imagine the backlash if he obeys Sharpton and Jackson.

Selig is a former used car salsman who wears cheap suits and makes a living kissing people’s butts. Watch him cave and destroy baseball.

Why are there still “Black Civil Rights Leaders” (especially these two criminals?) when a black man sits in the Oval Office, black entertainers make millions, there are black billionaires and a huge black middle class?

If MLB does this, the first act of the next Republican Congress should be to remove baseball’s antitrust exemption.

Get their attention.

Selig is a freakin' leftist 'Rat who has pretty much ruined what's left of baseball for many older fans.

If you don't believe he's a leftist, look (for example) at his political contributions, his hobnobbing with Castro, the timing of his appointment as Commissar (coinciding with the Clinton Administration), his internationalization efforts (including Opening Day in Tokyo and sending teams to China), his socialistic policies among member teams, etc., etc. Plus, the fact that there has not been an owner with GOP ties in MLB since George W. Bush left the Texas Rangers speaks volumes.

With all the foreign players currently being imported, Selig has a vested interest in easy travel into the US. He seems like a wimpy target for the race hustlers in the Arizona controversy.
