Funny. He doesn't seem to object to the money he's making in good ol' America.

"He's an adult. The club's position is that what he does is up to him."

Not while he's wearing a Marlin's uniform.

there should be an en masse cancelling of season tickets as a response to this - let the team get the message. Rush should run with this.

Is this really a surprise?

How many sports figures really support the USA?

Oh, they love the money, of course.

Fans should stand and turn their backs to him when he's up at bat. Piece of s**t.

Let's say only 15% of the fans decide to no longer support the team.

That should make that long term $52 million contract pretty near worthless.

These entertainers who think any of us are interested in their political concerns are NUTS!

Maybe we should ask the Department of State to revoke his work visa.

Yeah and now I'm stuck watching this idiot all summer long.
I hope he has a lousy season even though I do hope the Marlins do well. I just heard that he doesn't like God Bless America. I am sure that all the Cuban Americans in Miami are going to be thrilled with him. They flee communism and they get stuck with an idiot like him on their home team!!

There are men who will never be able to stand up again to "God Bless America" or any other song for that matter. They were paralyzed while defending Mr Delgado's freedoms so that he can be an overpaid jackass jock.

The SOB should MOVE back to Puerto Rico and renounce his U.S citizenship while he's at it!

An opponent of the war in Iraq, Delgado refused to stand when ``God Bless America'' was played last season at games involving his Toronto Blue Jays. Instead, he would stay on the bench or go into the dugout tunnel.

Hey so long as the guy is mature about it, not like that moron who laid on the bench in the NBA. Its a free country and so long as he is not disrespeting people..

If fans are made aware of this, and simply decide to skip Marlins games on the road, either team policy would change or their roster would change.

I thought that you were REQUIRED to stand only during the National Anthem?

Despite all the breastbeating, conservatives, even some freepers, will rationalize in a million different ways and shell out loads of money to support this guy.

There's no discipline in conservative ranks, which I suppose is why we're conservative and independent-minded.

(....and the lib, lefty and hate-America crowd know this all too well and rely on it......)
