When will sports franchises commit suicide by following their own demands that hiring preference should be driven by diversity of superficial characteristics instead of ability?

“Sports fans like me love gleaming new stadiums”

But tax payers don’t; these are big money losers that the tax payers end up subsidizing. Voters will vote against them but the politicians still shove them down everyone’s throat. City and county local politicians are very easily bought off.

Pro sports are about as pure a meritocracy as you’ll find in this increasingly equity-obsessed country.

Except that they all play in fancy new stadiums funded by taxpayers.

So it's corporate welfare.

Sports are raciss!

They’re going to need those sports stadiums. They don’t have anywhere to store their illegal aliens.

"Certified LGBTQ business enterprise"

Good Lord, I thought I'd heard it all. The Tampa Bay Chamber of Commerce charges an $899 certification fee and advertises a “matchmakers program.”

How do you pass the certification exam? Do they match you up with another random homo and send you into a back room with a video camera and a jar of lube?

Manufacturing used to be the main driver in the American economy. That has been replaced by sports/entertainment and social welfare spending by the government and NFP/NGO's.

Eventually the loss of taxable income from the for-profit entities will become noticeable, when the government defined-benefit pension funds have nothing domestic to invest in. Other than government debt, of course.

Taxpayer rape in the name of diversity.
