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 still enjoy all professional sports. I only sent the email to MLB because the “noise” about the immigration law is coming loudest from baseball with the threat of removing the 2011 All Star Game.
The REVEREND Jesse Jackass for one.
Now HOCKEY is a freakin' sport. LOL.
I have found that it is much more enjoyable to go and watch a local high school game if I want to watch a sporting event. The price is right, the kids appreciate fans in the stands and it is just a better all around atmosphere.
If I really wish to go to a “major league” game I will hop in the car and drive up to Round Rock to watch the Express.
Do the Red Sox operate any parking lots near Fenway? I cannot picture where they might be.

I believe you are a fan. I just notice that any thread pertaining to baseball always attracts people who hate the game and cannot wait to tell everyone.
BTW, is there serious talk about pulling the game from AZ? I’ve been a baseball fan all my life but two things I have little regard for, the All Star Game and the Baseball Hall of Fame.
Then you got a look at the stands. Now they are trying to tell Houstonians that not going to the games is Fair weather Fan stuff. Well for years they have had some great players that the stupid Gen Manager lets slip away.
My friend is a diehard Stros Fan, HE even said after the thumping by the DBacks that he is thinking about giving away his Astros Stuff. Now that is bad.
I say if you want my money play like you mean it.
The Padres are doing very well this year :)
If I was soccer King, I would move the goals 6 inches a year until they had some scoring. 800 shots on goal before the announcer yells GOAL. College football is still my cup of tea.
Hockey is a great combination of skating and fighting.
And how many times have they had a good start only to let you down? How many times have they choked? I'm not a fan because they do choke, they're famous for it.
Even so, I'm going to give them a chance. I have tickets for the May 17th game against SF. It'll be my first time at Petco Park.
I already have. Baseball sucks rocks.
See, you’re going in May. It’s always more fun to see a game before the team’s mathematically eliminated from playoffs...
I don't have a problem with that - but then I'm a Rockies fan. :-))
I agree with you. But I’ve already boycotted MLB since 1994. I can’t imagine ever going to a game again.

How does anyone know if MLB is even considering moving the 2011 All Star Game?
Hockey is the greatest sport of all . . . and the most difficult to play, too. Makes soccer look like the Special Olympics, eh?
Proudly boycotting since 1994.
I was a die-hard Yankee fan and never gave a damn about the National League when I was a kid . . . and yet I’ll never forgive MLB and its players for taking away Tony Gwynn’s chance to become the first player to hit .400 in 50+ years (he finished with a .394 average when the season was cut short).
