Soon there will be no escape from politics. People watch sports to get away from politics... and now the left is bringing it into it all, and nobody wants it
I remember when everybody including me were completely ignorant of politics. The happenings after DJT got elected made then #1 in my mind now. They have also radicalized my voting and hiring preferences.
Nothing wrong with a local softball language - better yet a beer league - get to know your neighbors and community. Get some exercise - negate that exercise with beer.
If professional sports dies it would be a good thing. Get rid of porn too. We need every man's energy to fight the Globalist Cabal and save the Republic.
Whose fault is it that there aren't enough black players in baseball? Nobody is blocking athletes. It's just not that fucking popular with black people. Are you going to force black people to like the sport of baseball more? There's already been a general waning interest in baseball and they've been worried about it the past few years. That's why this deal to get playing again being so frustrating is even more of a complete fuck up. It makes them look like they're just shooting themselves. They could have been the first major pro league back and they would have had ALL the eyes watching. But they fumbled that horribly and now they're going to only play 60 games and have to compete with the NBA and NHL at the same time. What is the magical number of black players in baseball where it becomes an acceptable percentage by the way?
How is it the rules and not a baseball culture thing? If you gloat on a homerun, the pitcher throws the ball at your face at your next at bat for rubbing it in. The pitcher is not protected by any rule for doing that. What does he want, choreographed dances after every homerun? lmao. When you hit a game winning walkoff, your whole team mobs the plate waiting for you.
I suppose he's talking about American blacks- fucking idiot. Has he ever considered that black people growing up prefer football, basketball, and track? There doesn't need to be equal representation in everything. Especially if it's forced.
Don't forget hunting and fishing, boy scouts, comics, video games, TV shows, comedy, etc etc. The fucking left destroys everything that American men love.
How about body images. First to make thick women hate themselves, promoting eating disorders and self harm. Then to do the opposite and make skinny women hate themselves for not being obese.
Women's sports now have men dominating them.
The top Olympic athlete of all time is a woman and we've never heard about her. Why? She wins golds with guns.
They are also destroying the cosmetics industry with nasty drag queen make-up artists like Jeffree Starr and other male make-up artists that have full faces of make-up with facial hair, as well as the fashion industry with obese and/or trans models. Every single cosmetic or clothing company I buy products from parrots the BLM and Pride messages now. It’s impossible to get away from the virtue signaling.
Every traditional institution has been or is currently being destroyed by the Marxists at this point.
This is why I unfollowed everyone makeup related on Instagram. I spent enough time and energy learning techniques that I can happily never pay attention again.
The problem is they’ve also taken over all the crafts as well. Garment sewing has always been left leaning, but then they came for quilting. Knitting is totally lost, along with most fiber arts. Spinning is safe-ish for now, but the recent weaving trend has put a expiration on that.
Certain areas of gardening, and woodworking seems safe still, but we’ll see how long it lasts.
At some point, we’re going to have to put firm ‘no off-topic/politics’ rules on forums or groups we create if we want to take back some of these areas.
I just don't like victim mentalities, myself. It wasn't you being a dick. I just don't like trying to say "men have it harder than women" when communists are trying to shit on and destroy everything we love.
This is what I don't understand. The Chinese market is growing, and they have increasing influence in Hollywood. But the Chinese don't exactly love black people. Africans in China are treated terribly. Why would the Chinese be supportive of BLM? Just because it divides America?
Yes. One of their pols was tweeting sarcastic shit about how the U.S. has horrible human rights abuses because of police brutality. They will actively push race bait agendas to take attention off from their own civil rights atrocities like we have no say in pointing out Hong Kong abuses. The Chinese government could not give two shits about black people or any American. It's just useful unrest.
Nope. He sure won't. Why? Because who wants to live under the cartels thumbs, amongst, wait for it...extreme violence and a corrupt government now run by an avowed Marxist.
But muh US is sooooo bad right...
I've always hated PK. Not cause he's black obviously. As a Blues fan, I see a lot of him since he's with Nashville and he's always been a little bitch.
The athletes and owners hate you and want you dead. You do not need to hate anything to recognize that. Why should I support an organization that will not let people with my skin color speak their mind? This has nothing to do with hate.
I'm saying that if you can still accept deriving pleasure from institutions you've trusted in the past, without funding then after they've been guttted by commies, then DON'T LET THEM CHANGE YOUR MINDSET AND FEELINGS
it's not about the institution. It's about you. They want you demoralized. Money is fucking fake. Fuck the money. It's about you.
You're the target. Trump says it and I back him up.
If you watch the NFL or any sports league you are supporting them with your time and you are viewing propaganda that is very insidious when you do it. Do not give them any of your time along with none of your money.
It's just comedic now to watch these dumbass institutions eat themselves and the retarded bosses not fire or reprimand their players.
Herp derp, he fucking has a deluded idea about racism in the country not based on facts. Do you think the MLB would bend a knee if he bowed out after talking about how many babies are killed from abortion, or the proliferation of human trafficking? One guess.
How much money has he made playing a childs game? If he really wants to help maybe he'll go into the ghetto's and act as a mediator in gang shootings. That ought to help out /s
Am confused, does this mean he's giving up his entire salary too? Or is this one of those typical lefty moves where they say they're not going to do a job yet take the payment from said job anyways.
Dude peaked in 2013. Was worth -1.8 WAR last year LOLOLOL. Literally made his team worse for the past 3 years, 15 total WAR over 11 years. The definition of a worthless and negative value player. Time to be become a MOUTHPIECE when you’re so good at sucking dick.
You see, Ian is a shell of his former, allstar self when he was with the Nationals.
Ian bet on himself and lost- big. To the tune of turning down a $100 million contract, opting to play on a "prove it" deal instead, BOMBING horrendously, and bounced around a bit til he can't even make a team.
Fuck these people. They held up baseball for months negotiating their contracts because they wanted to be paid exactly the same EVEN THO THE STANDS WOULD BE EMPTY.
They could have showed the country something. They could have showed the world something. Instead they showed us they are a bunch of greedy scumbags.
I love not watching football. My Sundays are MINE now.
I will LOVE not watching baseball too.
"Well son, it's when you're an amazing baseball player, at the top of your game, and then 'take a year off' because someone said mean things to you, but you can do that because you make more in a year then most people make in their lifetime. That's privilege. "
Soon there will be no escape from politics. People watch sports to get away from politics... and now the left is bringing it into it all, and nobody wants it
You've perfectly summed up communism.
I remember when everybody including me were completely ignorant of politics. The happenings after DJT got elected made then #1 in my mind now. They have also radicalized my voting and hiring preferences.
My mom was left leaning but mostly hated politics....
She's a HUGE Trump supporter now.... It's crazy!
I helped her buy her first gun last year too
Unrelated, but I assume you're with a small/medium sized business?
In my career, I've noticed the bigger the company, the more liberal the culture.
The left is successfully killing one of the most successful business enterprises, professional sports.
As we are seeing people -especially the left-without bread and circuses find destructive outlets.
And nothing of value was lost.
Nothing wrong with a local softball language - better yet a beer league - get to know your neighbors and community. Get some exercise - negate that exercise with beer.
If professional sports dies it would be a good thing. Get rid of porn too. We need every man's energy to fight the Globalist Cabal and save the Republic.
Too few asian gay midgets in the NBA. Replace Lebron with Ted Lieu immediately!
I'm sure a team of me, a baby, Betty White, a Mexican immigrant, and Tiger Woods could EASILY defeat the Los Angeles Lakers.
Because diversity is STRENGTH.
That someone could say this with a straight face when the NBA exists. Amazing.
And the NFL and college football/college basketball.
Whose fault is it that there aren't enough black players in baseball? Nobody is blocking athletes. It's just not that fucking popular with black people. Are you going to force black people to like the sport of baseball more? There's already been a general waning interest in baseball and they've been worried about it the past few years. That's why this deal to get playing again being so frustrating is even more of a complete fuck up. It makes them look like they're just shooting themselves.

But they fumbled that horribly and now they're going to only play 60 games and have to compete with the NBA and NHL at the same time. What is the magical number of black players in baseball where it becomes an acceptable percentage by the way?
In his post, he says there aren't enough black people because the white rules of baseball discourage players from celebrating home runs.
He also complains about a lack of funding for youth baseball programs but doesn't commit any of his millions up support them.
How is it the rules and not a baseball culture thing? If you gloat on a homerun, the pitcher throws the ball at your face at your next at bat for rubbing it in. The pitcher is not protected by any rule for doing that. What does he want, choreographed dances after every homerun? lmao. When you hit a game winning walkoff, your whole team mobs the plate waiting for you.
Right. But PR and Domincan Republic has no problem funding baseball....
I suppose he's talking about American blacks- fucking idiot. Has he ever considered that black people growing up prefer football, basketball, and track? There doesn't need to be equal representation in everything. Especially if it's forced.
Perhaps he wants MLB's 'race ratios' to be more like the NBA.
He doesn't want a good representation like the current state of the MLB.
He wants black supremacy.
hes opting out because he sucks and his team said he cant be a bitch.
he already is
lol now they are canceling themselves.
BLM=MLB?
Matter lives black?
Michael loves bukaki.
Omg
For such tough guys, these athletes sure are fragile and get hurt easily.
Don't forget hunting and fishing, boy scouts, comics, video games, TV shows, comedy, etc etc. The fucking left destroys everything that American men love.
A play in three acts:
Where do you plan to go where you’ll have it better? Honestly?
Where? Visit Quebec. They hate our guts and are proud of it.
They're communists.
90% of the Canadian population lives within 20 miles of the American border. Those are the people we laugh about.
The rest of the country is awesome. Snow Texas is quite possibly the greatest place on planet Earth.
Women love the stuff too, dude
My apologies, but has the left ever destroyed things women love.
Um how about men!?
How about body images. First to make thick women hate themselves, promoting eating disorders and self harm. Then to do the opposite and make skinny women hate themselves for not being obese.
Women's sports now have men dominating them.
The top Olympic athlete of all time is a woman and we've never heard about her. Why? She wins golds with guns.
Motherhood
Should I keep going?
Yeah keep going, I wasn't trying to be a dick about, I was just curious what women have had their stuff cancel cultured.
They are also destroying the cosmetics industry with nasty drag queen make-up artists like Jeffree Starr and other male make-up artists that have full faces of make-up with facial hair, as well as the fashion industry with obese and/or trans models. Every single cosmetic or clothing company I buy products from parrots the BLM and Pride messages now. It’s impossible to get away from the virtue signaling.

I agree, commies won't stop until everyone is getting screwed.
NHL desperately wants that Chinese market, too. Expect a black lives matter painted under the ice at each blue line.
This is what I don't understand. The Chinese market is growing, and they have increasing influence in Hollywood. But the Chinese don't exactly love black people. Africans in China are treated terribly. Why would the Chinese be supportive of BLM? Just because it divides America?
Yes. One of their pols was tweeting sarcastic shit about how the U.S. has horrible human rights abuses because of police brutality.

That makes a lot of sense. It's scary how powerful China is getting, and how much influence they have here.
The destruction of capitalism requires the full demoralization of the people. Everything we hold dear will be attempted to be destroyed.
Forgot Noosecar
Why are all these black celebrities paper-bag brown?
Anyway, next stop will be country music methinks.
Cause they are all at least half white.
Why doesn't he just opt out of the U.S. entirely?! You no like America? Then GET THE FUCK OUT!
He could literally take all his money and live in Mexico for the rest of his life, but he wont.
Mexico is very racist, though. Only Spanish bloodlines can run politics and the media. Minorities are treated worse than dogs down there.
Nope. He sure won't. Why? Because who wants to live under the cartels thumbs, amongst, wait for it...extreme violence and a corrupt government now run by an avowed Marxist. But muh US is sooooo bad right...
I'd add MLS to the list but let's be real... that shit was never alive to begin with.
Please, for the love of god, let the NHL remain un-cucked by BLM!!
Hey, the NHL is racist! There are not enough black people in it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And one of the few in the league, P.K. Subban, has been mouthing off about George Floyd. Though he's also just a douche.
I've always hated PK. Not cause he's black obviously. As a Blues fan, I see a lot of him since he's with Nashville and he's always been a little bitch.
I haven’t liked him since he was a Canadien. But I’m a Bruins fan and like Brad Marchand, so maybe I can’t talk ;)
Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out faggot.
They want us to hate what we used to love.
The athletes and owners hate you and want you dead. You do not need to hate anything to recognize that. Why should I support an organization that will not let people with my skin color speak their mind? This has nothing to do with hate.
I'm not defending that bullshit.
I'm saying that if you can still accept deriving pleasure from institutions you've trusted in the past, without funding then after they've been guttted by commies, then DON'T LET THEM CHANGE YOUR MINDSET AND FEELINGS
it's not about the institution. It's about you. They want you demoralized. Money is fucking fake. Fuck the money. It's about you.
You're the target. Trump says it and I back him up.
If you watch the NFL or any sports league you are supporting them with your time and you are viewing propaganda that is very insidious when you do it. Do not give them any of your time along with none of your money.
Again - it has nothing to do with their money. Money is fake. Do you not understand fractional reserve lending?
This is bigger than money...
learn to read
So you don't even know about how the banking system works and you use this as an attack?
OK call up someone else and cut this jackass from the team.
Kids play this game for free. He won't be missed.
Won't play? Fired. Fixed.
So powerful... so brave, lol.
It's just comedic now to watch these dumbass institutions eat themselves and the retarded bosses not fire or reprimand their players.
Herp derp, he fucking has a deluded idea about racism in the country not based on facts. Do you think the MLB would bend a knee if he bowed out after talking about how many babies are killed from abortion, or the proliferation of human trafficking? One guess.
Attention Whore
Fuck him
How much money has he made playing a childs game? If he really wants to help maybe he'll go into the ghetto's and act as a mediator in gang shootings. That ought to help out /s
This is the epitome of cutting off your nose to spite your face.
Am confused, does this mean he's giving up his entire salary too? Or is this one of those typical lefty moves where they say they're not going to do a job yet take the payment from said job anyways.
More like hexadecaroon
Good riddance.
Bye Felicia!
I'm pretty much writing off all sportsball / left turning events / dancing monkeys of all kinds...
Fuck
Them
All.
Fucking retard.
Imagine going through life without the ability to think for yourself?
NPC. zero soul.
Well I hear that Nike pays a lot, so there's that.
Now he will get millions without even having to play
There are a truckload of South American/Latin American/Caribbean talent as well as black talent in MLB
Pro sports will never be the same. Find the minor leagues and enjoy.
Sadly the baseball minor leagues belong to the major league organisations. Without the majors we can't have the minors as we know them.
Dude peaked in 2013. Was worth -1.8 WAR last year LOLOLOL. Literally made his team worse for the past 3 years, 15 total WAR over 11 years. The definition of a worthless and negative value player. Time to be become a MOUTHPIECE when you’re so good at sucking dick.
All low IQ closet homos.
LOL- this is a cop out for Ian Desmond.
You see, Ian is a shell of his former, allstar self when he was with the Nationals.
Ian bet on himself and lost- big. To the tune of turning down a $100 million contract, opting to play on a "prove it" deal instead, BOMBING horrendously, and bounced around a bit til he can't even make a team.
But the racism is what led him to oPt OuT
Just admit you're done and move on.
Nice excuse.
Fuck these people. They held up baseball for months negotiating their contracts because they wanted to be paid exactly the same EVEN THO THE STANDS WOULD BE EMPTY. They could have showed the country something. They could have showed the world something. Instead they showed us they are a bunch of greedy scumbags. I love not watching football. My Sundays are MINE now. I will LOVE not watching baseball too.
Don't forget Nascar killing themselves as well. Is hockey our only hope? Go Avalanche
MMA is the only non-cucked sport I will watch nowadays. Best sport there is though.
Newsflash - the fucking Rockies weren’t doing shit anyways. he’a probably saving his knees.
Fuck all professional sports.
Go outside and do something real.
Mountain bike, walk a dog, shoot a gun, have a bonfire.
Fuck these pandering BLM idiots.
Year Team GP AB R H RBI BB SO HR Avg
2019 Rockies 140 443 64 113 65 34 119 20 .255
2018 Rockies 160 555 82 131 88 53 146 22 .236
This guy is just done.
He's not good (by MLB standards), he's aging out anyways, at 34 with a 255 last year, as an OF/1B. He's gone anyways.
"Daddy, what is privilege?"
"Well son, it's when you're an amazing baseball player, at the top of your game, and then 'take a year off' because someone said mean things to you, but you can do that because you make more in a year then most people make in their lifetime. That's privilege. "
