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.
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.
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.
It’s okay I already hate the Giants.

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--
