As an aside, sports programming has really been something that TV execs have focused on, because people prefer to watch live, and will sit through the commercials.

In an age of DVR recording, sports are one of the few types of programs that people will watch live, when it’s actually broadcast, as opposed to recording on the DVR.

If critical masses of people don’t want to watch sports, that will be a game changer for the TV business model.

And I’m celebrating it by turning it off. I’d be willing to bet there are more of me than there are of them.

Initial response...

Not a dime for MLB including the “sports surcharge” that cable charges - GONE

ZERO police protection for these bloated rich SOBs and their gangster buddies. When the fights break out in the stands and the muggers start taking people down in the parking lots...good luck. On your own, scum.

And do they go home at night to expensive pads in Hillsborough and Tiburon? Put it on a “do not respond” list that every 911 dispatcher has. Let them spend their own millions on low rent “security” people...who the cops should arrest at every opportunity for the tiniest of infractions...like waving guns at “protesters”

It will be interesting to see how the fans will react to how professional sports are caving to the Marxist BLM.

Just like North Korea—everybody obeyed their masters.

That is what thrilled Rob.

Except that the rot from the meathead is sinking slowly down to the rest of the body.

His dad was something of a left-wing loon, and Rob makes him look like a right-winger!

tear up     1. To violently rip or pull someone or something into pieces.

It doesn’t count anymore unless there is a 2 year old white boy under your knee.

I love how people start things. He started tearing up. Then he stopped tearing up. He got partly teared up in a couple of seconds after starting to tear up then started not tearing up. Basically he got a little bit of tears but then got dry. Not quite a complete tearing up.

For the Dodgers only one player, Mookie Betts, did it.

I wonder how much of his $365 million dollar contract he will be donating to the injustice? They are so oppressed.

White people need to get over sports, both professional and college. Screw them. I used to live and breathe all sports, but got over it. Don’t miss any of it one bit.

Any white guy that is currently watching NFL,NBA, or MBL cannot be trusted. They are feet washing cucks. Ban them from your circle. Do not associate with them.

I guess I am missing out because I don’t give a crap about sports. Football was good for betting on but not much else. I am always amused at the way sports fans say we and they when referring to their team of choice. As if they had any power or control over the outcome of any game. They don’t. You can go to a game and scream and yell and get drunk but it makes absolutely no difference to the outcome. Lucky hats. Sixth man. All they are doing is making other people rich. Stupid.

South Park skit will be modified but basically this will be the merchandise for the holiday:

Basically, this will be the merchandise theme for BLM A$$ki$$ers for this holiday season.

Pucker up! You have a lot BLM A$$ to kiss!

I'm a pretty tough guy, but seeing those ungrateful American athlete multimillionaires kneel before the Marxist BLM overlords is painful for this Veteran (and brother of Veterans and Son and Grandson of Veterans and Dad of Veterans) to view.

Luckily, there are so many worthwhile and constructive options to occupy my time that I will miss only the MLB teams of my youth, and none of the obediently America-hating teams of this current season, and most likely, forever.

I started tearing up as well. Loved baseball for over 60 years and now it’d gone to me.
