Players on the U.S. Men’s Soccer Team should do the same on their uniforms.

Awesome and especially great that he is too good of a pitcher to trade.

And in other news, the rainbow was the insignia of the Rainbow division who wore a rainbow patch on their uniform. The 42nd. Rainbow division ~ The nickname โ€œRainbowโ€ division reflects the composition of the division during World War I. The 42nd was drawn from the National Guards of 26 states and the District of Columbia. It represented a cross section of the American people, as the rainbow represents a cross section of colors.

Then a group usurped the insignia for their own purpose.

"Man, how can you not love this from The Dodger's star Clayton Kershaw?"

Concur; well done

"Clayton Kershaw reminding everyone what the rainbow really represents. Genesis 9:12-17

God bless him."

The Dodgers wore pride hats. What kind of hats did the Giants wear? Oh. Right. Their normal hats. Every day is Pride Day in SF.

In summary, for the LURKERS here from DU, this is God's PROMISE to never try to wipe out Mankind ever again. (Noah and the Flood) Even IF we deserve it. Which we pretty much do. ;)

His courage is an encouragement to me. But, the gay flag is not a rainbow. God’s rainbow has seven colors, ROYGBIV. The gay flag has six, usually missing indigo but sometimes violet.

A typical hypocrite liberal’s “one way street” reaction is featured later in the story.

Liberalism is about bullying, besides being a mental disorder.

This is great! Resolution at last.

Because when I first came upon this "proverbs" page a few years ago, I had to laugh when I saw the baseball pitcher pun about the stone, but it took Dodger No. 22 to link it all up on his baseball cap in white lettering after so long a time.

(There are 22 letters in the AlefBeit.)

(An irritant, as I'm always finding the best stuff on account of everything in the cosmos coming together as one.)

Genesis 9:12-17

It's about this quick study on a letter skip...

From the first letter of the Torah, the letter skip of 1737 spells "in a/the cloud" [ื‘ืขื ืŸ], although it appears as ื‘ืขื ื .

"cloud" [ืขื ืŸ, anan] -- the first one appears in Genesis 9:13, even as the same phrase, "ื‘ืขื ืŸ":

"I do set my bow in the cloud [ื‘ึผึถืขึธื ึธืŸ], and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth."

(913 is the sum of the first word in the Torah, "in the beginning" [ื‘ึผึฐืจึตืืฉืึดื™ืช] where the ball got rolling with the first letter.)

There's always some quirky, dreadful pun, because in order to tie the number 1737 to a stone (see photo there, and also below that shows the hand), and then a stone to a pitcher throwing a curveball to the rainbow people, is the Jewish proverb that's the first one on the list:

The stone fell on the pitcher? Woe to the pitcher. The pitcher fell on the stone? Woe to the pitcher.

Jewish proverbs

Perhaps it has something to do with team rivalries.

It's like in the post/quote the other day regarding this same stone and Rabbi Nachman's Wisdom about talking to myself:

"A ball cannot enter a stone wall, and therefore bounces back from it."

I was complaining the other day how the q’s have stolen the rainbow...that they would be better served by a Rubik’s Cube.
