Deniers. Get used to empty stadiums.

Can’t boycott what I never supported in the first place.

Going to be very interesting to see what these ‘athletes’ are going to be doing to collect any kind of paycheck when there is no more revenue to pay them in baseball. Or basketball. Or football.

Empty stadiums are the least of it.

If people stop watching/streaming/listening, the league is screwed.

They can peacefully go broke. It’s never been about the military or the flag, it’s about supporting people who support me. They support BLM, Antifa and the like. We’ll see how good they are at filling up stadiums, buying merchandise and other stuff that they actually have to pay for rather than loot.

Yeah, I’m done with millionaire kneelers. They have guaranteed contracts. They don’t give a crap about fans. They don’t need fans.

The last time I went to a pro baseball game was when the Edmonton Trappers were still around.

I won’t even watch the game on tv.

They should tell us what it s “about” by writing it down and giving an argument for it instead of just making a disrespectful gesture. They might find their point more difficult to articulate and justify than to assume insulting bodily positions,

"The kneelers included Giants manager Gabe Kapler,"

Kapler's a jock, period. Dumb as a bag of hammers.

Gosh, I thought that Gabe Kapler would be a real American Patriot. I’m so shocked. Die, sportsball, die.

This is a terrible thing for baseball. Many kids have already lost interest in it. We took our grandkids to games, but they actually think it’s a boring game to play. We might take them to minor league games next year if they don’t kneel.

Perfect time for MLB to pull this, because they won’t get the up close personal reactions from any angry fans in attendance. They won’t face even an ounce of heckling.

Nobody gets to decide what others should think about them disrespecting the flag and America. The gall. And they should leave America.

Another win for the Marxists as their brain-washed “useful idiots” destroy their own livelihood.

If they hate America I hate them. They must think their game is pretty special when it is really boring.

Last year he was the manager of the Phillies. I would have loved to have seen this worm kneel in front of a full house in Philadelphia.
