My Brain ^ | now | Me

If Major League Baseball caves into the wishes of those who are breaking the law and entering the law ILLEGALLY and moves the 2011 All Star game from Arizona, I vow to never watch baseball again. Who is with me?

I watch precious little of it as is now. Even the game’s most ardent supporters are dismayed at the length of games and the silliness that goes on.

As for live games...$30 parking, $8 beer? No thanks.

Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!

I'm with you on this, but I'm sure the folks at Major League Baseball won't miss me. I haven't paid my way into a MLB game since the 1994 strike (my only attendance at a game was for a company function).

I can actually see this from MLB's perspective, too. Baseball is rapidly becoming no different than soccer, in terms of its diminishing appeal to American fans. So bending over backwards to mollify their Latino players and fans may be a good business decision -- for them.

All these companies and entities are being pressured by radical anti-American, Mexican organizations....

I will avoid MLB if they take the All-Star game from Phoenix. If MLB wants to pander to Liberals, Illegal Aliens, La Raza, MEChA, etc....my money goes elsewhere

“As for live games...$30 parking, $8 beer? No thanks.”

Try $31k for 4 Red Sox season tickets (that does include 1 parking pass though!)

I generally boycott baseball anyway.

I don't like to sit in an uncomfortable seat for 4 hours, watching a group of men getting paid for standing around, while pondering whether I should purchase a $7 beer.

Why should a Jewish commisioner of MLB bother seeing Jesse Jackson, a known antisemite?

I am a Seattle Mariners fan, so I don't really watch MLB. (Groan -- they are really tough to watch this season)

I would think that MLB has signed contracts with the people in Phoenix, though; so, can they just take it away like that?

I’ve basically boycotted MLB since the ‘94 strike, so they haven’t missed me and I don’t miss them.

I sent this email:

If MLB makes the mistake of allowing politics into the sport by moving the All Star Game from Arizona, I will no longer spend any money on your form of entertainment. Sports are a diversion from our daily lives. Keep it that way.

I would boycott MLB, but it is already so utterly boring that I do not watch it ever.

I wish I was a bigger fan of MLB so I could sock em in the financials, but baseball is almost as boring as golf. It is more like chess. I don’t mind chess if I am playing it.

That’s why I rode the T in when I lived in Boston . . . saved crazy money on parking.
