Major League Baseball (MLB) chose the wokes over their fans when they relocated the All-Star Game from Atlanta to Denver.
And, it appears, the fans are letting their feelings be known.
The television ratings for Sunday Night Baseball, MLB’s flagship primetime offering and ESPN’s premier weekend evening broadcast, have sunk 49 percent from last year.

good
hope they fail
people “as a general rule” don’t like having CRAP forced down their thought.
I agree wholeheartedly. Let these overpaid morons find the end of the rope.
Oops, meant to post the Jordan comment on the NBA thread.
And now I have no clue what I am doing. Good night!
i can sympathize with the below the line folks who work there that have nothing to do with it and just want to make a living
but i hope it fails and is completely destroyed
This will eventually draw upon the networks bidding on the next contract, and the sum offered will decrease (I suspect 20-percent less offered than the current contract).
The owners? They will be furious over this, and probably state the obvious...social messaging has to conclude immediately.

Down by %49 from last year’s woke/rona numbers. So even more people left.
It was over when the players wouldn’t play because that rapist with a warrant got shot while resisting arrest with a knife after terrorizing his victim yet again.
sports/entertainment is downstream from survival. r.i.p. Andrew.
It wasn’t just the All Star game. MLB has pushing the BLM crap before that.
The woman announcer that they hired a few years ago (to show how woke they were) that wouldn’t shut up was a big turnoff. The guys in our household didn’t want to listen to a female softball player explain baseball, so we turned the volume down.
Canceled our MLB app subscription. We don’t do cable.
I wrote a “dear John” letter to the owners of my favorite team and told them I won’t be back until they return as America’s Sport...
No sale.
Gone.
I know what will bring the fans back! Let’s make the month of June a celebration of Gay Pride!!!
