with the series right around the corner? go ahead, i dare themHow do they feel about “O Canada” at Blue Jays games?
NBA has a rule about standing for the Anthem.
I would like to see what happens when some basketball players take a knee.
Anyone know if baseball has a similar rule.
It’s possible... Trump may very well have ‘jumped the shark’ in tweeting about Curry this morning.
They are systematically destroying all the cultural icons of this country, so Baseball can’t be far behind. Besides, the world’s ending later today and I won’t get to see the world series, so I don’t care.
Of course, that might not prevent a few black players from protesting. But, Rob Manfred, the MLB commissioner, should do what Roger Goodell failed to and forbid any protests.
¿Que?
White man’s sport??? They need to come to a Seattle Mariners’ game. Very few “white” players; mostly hispanics from the Caribbean, Central and South America.
However, there are fewer and fewer American blacks in the bigs. They prefer basket ball. There are tons of blacksT from the Caribbean, but that doesn't count in some minds.
I am sure the left will turn this “disparity” of American blacks into a white privilege issue.
LOL at leftists calling MLB a “White Man’s Sport” the majority of baseball players are Dominican..guess that is considered white to liberal standards..let them try and ruin ANOTHER sport they have ruined everything else..what next, Hockey
Or screamed 'gays are perverts' at the top of their lungs?
Does anyone here think THAT (perfectly legal but offensive 'freedom of speech') would be tolerated by the sports world? NOT FOR A MINUTE...
Seems the sports world is telling traditional Americans something... something ugly and mean - and we need to stand up to them, turn our backs and walk away ... forever. The player or players would be fired on the spot.
It's OK IN the NFL PLAYBOOK TO GIVE THE FINGER' to the country but NOT OK TO GIVE THE FINGER TO MEMBERS OF DEMOCRAT PROTECTED VICTIM GROUPS.
with the series right around the corner? go ahead, i dare themWho cares what they say? I’ve never seen a Leftist at a Baseball game which explains why they think its a “white” sport..........they’ve never seen the huge degree of diversity on these teams. Their real problem is that baseball isn’t entirely dominated by their Cultural Icon, the African-American.
You will never see a hockey player take a knee. If one did the refs would turn their backs and let a player “take care of it”.
My guess is that if the leftist go after the National Anthem at MLB games, the fans will temporarily go leftist and pick up the practice of tossing human sacrifices off the upper deck.
I hope they do and they are led by their leader James Brown’s Wig.
It’s begun....
