Major League Baseball has announced plans to stencil “Black Lives Matter” on the pitcher’s mound during opening week, beginning with the Washington Nationals and New York Yankees game on Thursday.
“The Nationals, in conjunction with Major League Baseball, stand with the Black Lives Matter movement and will utilize the platform and national stage of Opening Day to express support for the fight against systemic racism and injustice,” the team announced in a statement, according to ESPN.

Well there ya go.
May they fade away.
Where pitchers will stomp on it and kick dirt all over it. The symbolism being?...
As my 15-year old niece pointed out, kneeling is a particularly inappropriate way to protest the death of George Floyd.
That puts the final nail in the MLB coffin.
I thought games already started.
These cuckolds. I’m offended by their massive pandering.
Clearly all these governments AND corps have chosen sides.
Screw them all. Bastard communists.
Excellent point. Woke isn't so woke after all, are they?
Watched every Nationals game the last 5 years, I will not watch this year and canceled my season tickets for next year.
It’s actually stupid to kneel. It makes no sense.
It’s meant as some “protest but actually kneeling is a sign of submission, reverence. One kneels to kings, and kneels before God including prayer.
So applaud them, because they are showing even greater reverence for the flag than the standers!
Blackmailing Lives Matters
FMLB
Write your team and tell them you are dropping them. Feel free to find my post and use it as a template.
Aubrey Huff and President Trump explain, why I will not be watching any pro sports this season.
Aubrey Huff reacts to San Francisco Giants players kneeling during anthem: ‘I’m Pro America’!
‘I’m proud to not be invited to the San Francisco Giants 10 year World Series reunion’
Huff also responded to a tweet sent out by the Giants.
“#All Lives Matter,” Huff wrote.

TRUMP READY FOR LIVE SPORTS BUT SAYS HE WON’T TUNE IN IF PLAYERS KNEEL DURING NATIONAL ANTHEM: ‘GAME IS OVER FOR ME’
These people are too stupid to understand that...
They hear that and say, “Huh?”
MLB should do a White Lives Matter display next week and then an All Lives Matter the following weekend.
I was a huge baseball fan, but they will not get one cent from me. I wrote to the Atlanta Braves yesterday and told them if they remove the Chop or support BLM, I will never buy any of their products.
I have put all of my baseball caps, shirts, and coffee mugs into tubs and will no longer promote a team of sport that supports this crap.
Gawdforbid some pitcher forgets, and spits.
PHOOEY!!!!
BLM is communist, and therefore anti-American! Baseball, the National Pastime, is all-American!!!!
NLB needs to get back to its roots, and to its TRUE fans, and thoroughly repudiate BLM!!!!
I recommend pitchers kick dirt on it and then step as hard as possible on it with spikes
Enough
MLB should be ashamed
Bye bye “National PAST Time”
Your PAST your PRIME
Honoring DNC money launderers? How low can you go...
