the New York Yankees — have yet to host a Pride Night...

Class shows 👍

I’ve only ever been a Yankees fan (OK so only for about 10 years). Either way, I am ELATED to hear that they are not promoting perversion.

[MichaelCorleone]

George Steinbrenner would rise up out of the grave with both guns blazing if they did!

I didn’t know the NYY were the only ones. I just became a Yankee fan.

And we wonder why NBC cowers like little mice in its NYC headquarters and refuses to send its propagandists into the hinterland.

Why does a baseball team need a Pride night? Why does every single organization and entity lately have to celebrate people's sexual orientation every time we turn around? I've nothing against them, but it's getting downright weird. "Oh, the PTA is having a bake sale? When is it having a Pride Bake Sale??... Oh, there's a bowling alley in this town? What night is the Pride Bowling Event? ... Oh, there's a Country Club? What night is the Pride Golfing Event? Oh look, a zoo. What day is Zoo Pride....?"

I mean, there's "We're here, we're queer, get used to it," and then there's "We're here, we're queer, and we want your undivided attention every damn minute."

Black Lives Matter must look over at them like "Give someone else a chance, bro."

Go Yankees!!

[rktman]

Yup. 👬👭🌈🦄. We'll see now that it's being mentioned.

They need to host a Straight Guys Who Like Beautiful Women night.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

There is a good reason by the NY Yankees haven’t hosted a “Gay Pride” event. They are trying to live up to the title of the movie “Pride of the Yankees”. Lou Gehrig was a man for all of America, not just a one segment.

Have as many fag nights as you want!

I’m never going to a game again regardless

Finally, some positive sports news even if it is about the Yankees. GO YANKEES!!

Public shaming is a popular technique used by leftists. do not give in to it if/when it happens to you.

The headline makes this sound like it’s a problem? Are businesses supposed to celebrate perversity as a way to improve the bottom line? I’m pretty sure queer Yankee fans will continue to be fans.

[Fester Chugabrew]

Bump. My thoughts exactly.

[newnhdad]

I’ll be impressed when they don’t schedule one next year.

[1217Chic]

My company celebrates LGBTQ month as well and proudly displays this crap in the “diversity” room. Evey time I walk by I wonder when they’re going to celebrate Straight Pride month......

[wild74]

I don’t think Houston or Texas is holding an event either

[stellaluna]

Go Yankees.

Homosexual “Pride Month” has become liberals’ Ramadan. You are REQUIRED to engage in moral peacocking for the sacred time.

[Karl Spooner]

I follow your line of thinking concerning sports also.
