The result of this far left swing is going to hurt minority groups so much. Their communities will be shitholes for decades. If they think racism exists now, wait until this generation grows up, only seeing looters and rioters and murders happening by black people. Sigh. It's gonna be bad.
Some tough player's union they have there. He's the reason the season is only 60 games instead of the approximately 116 the players wanted in the first place, which cost each player a TON of money. So they're essentially going to celebrate the moron who cost them half of their 2020 salaries. It would be a shame if a bat rack "fell on him" multiple times.

......For a moment I thought you're double-sniding the Democrats and supporters of nanny-state-high-taxes stance where government is so kind to take half your salary to "take care of you" . :DDD
The moron also said that the World Series should be held in the summer. So essentially before they have the season. I don't even think he would know what a baseball was if it were shoved in his lying mouth.
Well some sports may never happen. I’m looking at you NBA. That was just a prediction not a mandate. He said the leagues will have to figure out how to do it safely and MLB took the time to put a plan together.
Wrong. The media has deified him, like Mueller, and any action taken to remedy the coup will probably end in AstroTurf "protests" next Saturday and 6 more weeks of lockdown as punishment for uncontrollable outside factors.
The GOP has deified him more than anyone. McConnell, Cheney and even Trump himself say how much they respect him and the great working relationship they all have. Trump doesn’t just say that about anyone. If he doesn’t like someone they’re out. Yesterday.
Removing a sitting AG and director of NIAID are 2 verrry different things. He could easily remove Fauci if he really wasn’t happy with him. The fact is every time he speaks of him it’s always very complimentary. I have no reason to doubt his sincerity.
The Giants all kneeled during the opening game and the league isn’t even considering any kind of disciplinary action. Fuck sports until they can just be about the sport
The 60-game schedule with no fans, a stupid schedule, dopey rule changes, gimmicks and no minor leagues is hardly "ballsy."
I am a huge MLB fan. I usually buy the MLB.tv package. They lost a fan over everything I mentioned above and if they're OK with the kneeling crap, I won't be coming back in 2021. Moronic lawyers are running the league and actual baseball fans and people have been thrown overboard.
That’s a fair criticism but I’ll be happy to have some games rather than none. I’m a season ticket holder so this shit hurts. Doesn’t feel like summer. So yeah it’s not ideal but some is better than none. I’ll be back next year expecting a return to normalcy.
I thought the same, but I watched a half inning of the Yankees/Mets exhibition the other night and the empty stands and piped in noise just didn't do it for me. Not to mention that attention whore Clint Frazier wearing the dopey mask on the field (and I'm a Yankee fan.) I saw the highlight of Mike Ford's HR last night into empty bleachers. I just can't get into it. It doesn't seem real or entertaining. It's depressing.
This is all in addition to the fact that 60 games is nowhere near enough to let the best teams rise to the top. The 2018 Dodgers were 30-30 at 60 games and wouldn't have even made the postseason. (Not that they were a great team...but they won 92 games.)
It's not a "season." It's a tournament. The thing with the runners starting on second base in extra innings really bothers me, too. They claim it's for "players' safety." Oh, so they are on the field for three hours or more with all the same people who've all been tested, but suddenly extra innings poses some sort of new threat? MLB is just being dishonest. They wanted to shoehorn that crap into the game. They claim it's only for 2020, but you know they'll claim it was a success and install it as a rule going forward.
Americans, turn off the TV sports and play real sports with friends and family instead. Cancel MLB and teach the kids to catch! Forget the NFL and call your grandma instead, you won't regret it I promise! Ignore NASCAR and talk to your neighbors about GEOTUS and the importance of voting this November. Live life Pedes!
MLB hits me up every year to sign up for MLB.tv. I'm now eagerly awaiting that email and will have a scathing response. (Hint: They're not getting a cent.)
oh, ha ha you just reminded me about how I responded to newsomes email the other day. I saved it as a .png or something. It was ... not nice, to say the least.
I gave up the NFL and NBA long ago. I foolishly hoped that MLB could stay above all this madness. The tweets today have gutted all respect I had for the league that defined my childhood.
The league in Taiwan and South Korea began their baseball seasons in the spring but here we are in America where it is our national pastime starting one week away from August. Fuck you Fauci. Spare me the covid bullshit.
Heresy!!! Blasphemy!!! Stand in the corner SINNER!!!
It's weird watching the Sox plating againt Toronto, hearing fans, but seeing no one in the stands. NESN needs to get rid of the canned fan track.
It’s mandated by MLB to use sounds from The Show. Howie and Wayne on WCBS went on and on about it during both exhibitions against the Yankees. To be honest, if you listen to the radio broadcast it works a lot better.
It probably does work better for radio. I saw Mike Ford's game-tying HR in the 9th against the Phillies into empty bleachers on a highlight video and it was just depressing. I wanted to watch just because I want some escapist fare and it's something I've loved all my life. I can't do it. After hearing MLB is "down for the struggle" I'm really done.
So NBA is toast, MLB seemingly is team by team basis I guess? (Reds are dead to me now) and I was awaiting to see what the NFL teams did when they just announced 250m to BLM.
I would suggest everyone follow the Chicago Hot Dogs minor league baseball team. Games are streamed and the team isn't pozzed to hell
I've long contended no fans couple with the kneeling is all part of the "plan." If they kneel, there's nobody there to boo. Therefore the media/Left can paint it the way they want without the viral videos leaking out of overwhelming booing from the crowd. This is why they didn't want fans.
There's no reason fans can't go to outdoor games in summer heat. There's no threat at all. I know the Yankees President Randy Levine was really pushing for fans. Unfortunately, the MLB cucks won out.
To make matters worse, there seems to be a contentious war on aunts for some odd reason?? Some lady named Aunt Tifa has everyone riled and even Aunt Jemima has been cancelled.
And they can Lick My Balls
Burn Loot Murder!
Remember not to take a shower for the next couple of days so they can be extra...vinegary.
Maybe I'll roll them in salt and make a nice sushi arrangement.
THIS IS BRILLIANT
Ok. So why are we hating on the MLB now? So far they’re the only sport with the balls to get things started again. Pun intended.
The Brewers did, too.
So many teams are doing it now
Not to mention all the BLM support from MLB. Buh bye.
Bending the Knee
Oh ok got it. They need to put up some confederate flags to balance it out.
It's not a scale.
The result of this far left swing is going to hurt minority groups so much. Their communities will be shitholes for decades. If they think racism exists now, wait until this generation grows up, only seeing looters and rioters and murders happening by black people. Sigh. It's gonna be bad.
It’s okay I already hate the Giants.
Daghta Fowwchee is throwing the first pitch at a Nationals game

So what? He’s on the POTUS virus dream team. Trump seems to really like him. If he didn’t he’d be gone.

The MLB condoned and praised it. Many teams are following today
Ah yeah that would do it
Not all of the Giants. A small handful- kneeling to nobody. I don't think they would do it if fans were there--

Oops, I meant Nunes.
We want a pitcher not a black lives matter bitcher.
"Must Lick Balls"
I gave up the NFL and NBA long ago. I foolishly hoped that MLB could stay above all this madness. The tweets today have gutted all respect I had for the league that defined my childhood.
Fuck the MLB, fuck Rob Manfred, and fuck the DH.
I'm with you on the first two. You lost me on the last. Still enough for an upvote though.
The league in Taiwan and South Korea began their baseball seasons in the spring but here we are in America where it is our national pastime starting one week away from August. Fuck you Fauci. Spare me the covid bullshit.
This sport is already flop town USA. Who watches this crap?
and i am done with professional sports except maybe hockey.

Every kneeler should be drilled in the back by a fastball.
I'm thinking we need Carl Mays. (Bonus points for anyone who gets that reference.)

When pro sports start letting fans go to games again can we make it a thing to chant USA when the players kneel?
I've long contended no fans couple with the kneeling is all part of the "plan." If they kneel, there's nobody there to boo. Therefore the media/Left can paint it the way they want without the viral videos leaking out of overwhelming booing from the crowd. This is why they didn't want fans.

checks notes Okay yes this checks out
Everyone online is saying that the Bureau of Land Management is a marxist terrorist org. I come of out a 2 yr coma, and everythings so confusing
To make matters worse, there seems to be a contentious war on aunts for some odd reason?? Some lady named Aunt Tifa has everyone riled and even Aunt Jemima has been cancelled.
Wonder if a government agency can sue them over the initialism like the World Wildlife Fund did to wrestling.
Major League Bitches?
They might have some kneeling going on, but hell, at least they don't have "Black Lives Matter" at center court like the NBA is doing
wow
And sports is a four-letter word.
Mind literally blown
Nice catch
Is it just me, or does BLM look like some kind of abbreviation of bowel movement?
Wow.So simple a cave man could see it.
That’s dumb
Make this a daily meme with different info each day. Call it " Daily wisdom from Jim" or something witty like that. Today on " learning with Jim". Lol
"Today on Learning with Jim. We're going to discuss math. So if you have 13% of the population..."
