"The act of participating in our country's election process is our civic responsibility and instrumental to our country's foundation. We should promote increasing voter turnout as opposed to any measures that adversely impact the ability to cast a ballot. In November, the Marlins proudly set out to promote the vote with our Election Day Feed the Polls initiative, providing meals to voters as our local election officials conducted free and fair elections. We support the Commissioner's decision to stand up for the values of our game and not hold this year's All-Star Game in the state of Georgia."

Jester is an ahole,another ignorant idiot
I wonder if he spoke to Castro about that when he went to Cuba with Obama
The Orioles put out a similar message. Stupid is as stupid does.
...that players have valid identification is unacceptable? Which foreign Marlins players do not have a work visa? Which Marlins employees are underage and breaking labor laws?
...that players' contracts are validated is unacceptable?
...that players' physicians have valid identification is unacceptable?
...that players have validated stats is unacceptable?
...that those who access the Marlins luxury skyboxes have valid identification is unacceptable?
...that attendees of Marlins baseball games pay with a valid credit card is unacceptable?
...that attendees of Marlins baseball games having to show a valid ID to purchase alcohol is unacceptable? Are the Marlins selling alcohol to minors?
...that attendees of Marlins baseball games show a valid ticket to enter the stadium is unacceptable?
...that attendees of Marlins baseball games show a valid ID to pick up tickets a "will-call" is unacceptable?
...that those who stream Marlins baseball games pay with a valid credit card is unacceptable?
How about votes within the players' union? Do the players need to be actual players and have an ID in order to vote in the union?
Why do Marlins games have umpires? Is it their job to validate balls, strikes, balks, outs, errors, etc?
What about instant replay? Why are umpires at Marlins games reviewing calls?
How about the Marlins Board? Do they have to be valid members of the Board to vote on decisions affecting the stockholders or can they be any illegal or fake person voting?
How about the rest of Marlins employees? Are they hiring individuals without valid IDs?
What about revenue? Are the Marlins submitting invalidated revenue reports?
What about licensed merchandise? Does Derek Jeter find it unacceptable that sellers of Marlins merchandise be licensed by the Marlins?
Florida Marlins CEO Derek Jeter is nothing but a mere HYPOCRITE.
But his organization makes people show photo ID to get tickets purchased so Jeter must be a racist too.
Ask the 25 players on the roster if they function without an ID.
Q for Jeter: What about all the Trump supporters who are people of color and were disenfranchised by voter fraud?
Or don’t those lives matter, Jeter...?
Who in their right mind would devote any time to Major League Baseball anymore? It is a waste of time. There’s No Time Left for You (MLB)!

When a prominent republicans win with 110% of voter turnout in key districts maybe the leftist try to stop voter fraud.
Derek Jeter slices $2M from the price of his New York castle
Hmmmmm....
Anyway, you're dead wrong! Stick with base-a-ball! Been beddy, beddy good to ju!
I think if Jeter and the rest of MLB really mean it, Forfeit any visiting games in Atlanta. Go big or go home.
Hey Derek! Meeeeow.....
But, don’t you stop Guido and Tony from giving that MLB player a bottle of water from the stands.
And, look, that label is patriotic!
It has a photo of Benjamin Franklin on it!
the Sports book is the source of operating cash.
Stop aiding and a.BET.ting pro sports.
“Sorry you dropped that fly-ball, sport.
Here’s a bottle of water to cool you off.
You’re doing great out there kid.
Just like we asked.”
Um, It’s surely been a while for me but, I don’t think I have ever had to show and I.D. to buy a professional sports ticket...
Meter . Another wealthy loser!
Who would waste time on ANY sport that tries to shove a political agenda down our throats.
Has-been token
