Nope. It is spreading like the plague!
Oakland A’s catcher Bruce Maxwell became the first Major League Baseball player to kneel during the national anthem on Saturday, according to the San Francisco Chronicle’s Susan Slusser.
And Maxwell is a kraut, too! (Figures) (N.B.: I am descended partly from Krauts, so I have a waiver.)
That’s true, that Athletic did that but as long as a sport is not majority African-American; I don’t think it will really catch on. As said earlier, major league baseball teams play 162 games a year, that’s a lot of national anthems but I still don’t think this idiocy will catch on in baseball and players like that Maxwell character will look like a joke. African-Americans make up a small portion of the MLB and I’d guess, they are a lot better behaved as well.
