Title: MLB is moving the All-Star Game out of Atlanta
Post by: TD on April 02, 2021, 09:39:03 PM
...due to the State of Georgia wanting to pass a law requiring people to provide identification for all mail-in ballots.

Aghast! What a horrible idea it is to reduce fraudulent votes.

But my question is this: who is this protected class? Who cannot provide identification nowadays? Please, someone describe who these people are. Otherwise they are merely a handful of imaginary people who live under the bank.

If all conservatives simply stopped watching games, going to games, and buying sports crap they would all die. All sports are ultra  liberal now.

Done that, ain't going back. Getting pretty tired of the college level too. If the kids in college think they need to be paid, then turn pro right out of high school.

I would like to ask all these naysayers just one question.

What section of this bill do you disagree and why?

The answers would be more bumbling than a Biden speech.

I know you're young, you aren't old enough to appreciate the gravity of the situation, let alone recognize the severity and speed at which the left is moving, but people like you will one day wake up to nothing.
It will be too late to complain about anything, because it will all be gone. The left is purposefully destroying everything you enjoy to punish you into submission.
But you keep hanging onto your illusion that it will get better while I go about life oblivious to the changes taking place around you.

I assure you, if your generation doesn't say enough is enough, the Marxists will take it all.

Donald Trump: 'Boycott Baseball' and 'Woke Companies' Opposing Georgia Election Law

President Donald Trump called for a boycott of Major League Baseball (MLB) Friday after they canceled the 2021 All-Star game in Atlanta to protest the new Georgia election law.

"Boycott baseball and all of the woke companies that are interfering with Free and Fair Elections," Trump wrote. "Are you listening Coke, Delta, and all!"

Over 100 companies joined to condemn the law after it was signed, including Facebook, Google, Bank of America, Apple, Microsoft, Coca-Cola, American Express, Delta, and the Home Depot.

MLB commissioner Rob Manfred announced Friday his decision to move the All-Star game to a different host city, citing "thoughtful conversations" with players.

"I have decided that the best way to demonstrate our values as a sport is by relocating this year's All-Star Game and MLB Draft," he wrote in a statement.

Trump said baseball is losing "tremendous numbers" of fans because they are afraid of the radical left.

"[T]hey are afraid of the Radical Left Democrats who do not want voter I.D., which is desperately needed, to have anything to do with our elections," Trump wrote.

The new Georgia law, signed by Gov. Brian Kemp, requires an ID in order to get an absentee ballot and makes it illegal to mail out absentee ballot applications to voters.

I Voted for 45 three times, two general elections& one primary he's wrong on this All ages are going to the CBP to watch Bryce Harper and the Boys bring back a championship it was.

To try to reach through the chaff ....


1)  MLB is headquartered in NY which has much more restrictive voting laws than the new Georgia bill.  By his own admission, Rob Manfred cancelled the game due to "pressure" from Coca Cola ... etc.  not due to any insight on why Georgia's bill is restrictive.

Rob ... cancel MLB due to your state being worse than the state you are creating financial hardship for because you are such a follower.

2)  Joe Biden created a war chest out of Delaware.  Delaware voting laws are more restrictive than the new Georgia bill.

Wokes .... boycott the Biden Presidency over 40 years of your repressive state response.

3) Atlanta is as divers as it comes.  I visited there to attend an instructor seminar.  When I took a bike trip, it was white people bathing in the river because they could not afford the housing.   It is Hank Aaron, and it is disrespectful of MLB to move the game.

Hey Rob ..... why not move it to a white town that Coke respects?   

So fans talked about boycotts back when the great baseball strike occurred.  Mildly successful for a year ... then baseball took off.

It is not the Atlanta Braves creating this.   It is MLB.

Boycott and send letters to Rob Manfred (MLB) and John Murphy (Coca Cola).

Those two will tell you "we are only replying to pressure". 

MLB is getting pressure from Coke and Delta.

And that ... is the story.   We no longer do anything for America ... we no longer research ... we only respond to idiots.

Boycott Coca Cola, drink beer made by Billy Carter.   Refuse any flight by Delta.

Every step you take, tie it back to this and send a letter or e-mail letting them know how appreciative you are of their abandonment of America.

Quit bitching and be an American.

John Reese is spot on.

Truth out is that MLB did not move the all star game due to a voting law ... they moved it due to pressure from corporate sponsors.

Can anyone tell us the corporate sponsors who find free elections deplorable?

You are correct MLB. Is a business. But here in the Philadelphia Metropolitan Area, Mr. Middleton listens to us, respects us. I am sorry about Georgia. It is so awful Raffensperger could have helped 45 find the ballots & didn't but instead. Senator Warnock cost them 100 million.

Boycotting baseball is cancel culture.

When you join mass hysteria, it is difficult to separate the parties.

I will not fly Delta, nor will I buy a Coke product because they are fearful flies.  I have to wonder what they produce.  Do they lie about what the product contains, or their plane maintenance records?  I haven't bought a Coke product or flown Delta in years ... not part of the cancel culture ... just how I view corporate America.

Nike endorses athletes to promote product, and when there is a sniff of a problem ... cancels them ...  I would never pay for Nike sneakers when I can get the same quality at 10%.  Not cancel culture.

On the same token, Nike still endorses Lebron James and the Equality shoe.  I still do not own Equality shoes.

No, Corporate sports and their caving to Marxist dogma is cancel culture, and the only way to end its pervasiveness is to stop patronizing them, hit their bottom-line, the very reason they're in business.
If they can't fund their coercion, they will be forced to change, or a better entity will take their place.

We're a Capitalist Nation, where the consumer is King. If industry refuses to support American ideals, it deserves the path of the buggy whip manufacturer.

You really don't understand communists, do you?

These corporations already did the cancelling. They pulled out of a state for a reason that has nothing to do with them.

They Lied!!!


When Major League Baseball issued its statement, it appears that it lied to the fans and the players about the reasons behind its decision.

"Over the last week, we have engaged in thoughtful conversations with Clubs, former and current players, the Players Association, and the Players Alliance, among others, to listen to their views," the statement read.

Those "among others" are radical left-wing activists who appear to be the actual force behind the decision, which cost the state of Georgia as much as $100 million in revenue. It now appears MLB will move the All-Star Game to Colorado, another blue state that has various election laws that are as rigid as Georgia's, including a voter ID requirement to register.

On Tuesday, Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms issued an Administrative Order on Tuesday that pushes back against Georgia's new election integrity law.

Mayor Bottoms' order states that the election integrity measures signed into law by Governor Brian Kemp make changes that "include empowering officials to take over local election boards, limiting the use of ballot drop boxes, and imposing new voter identification requirements and limitations for the use of absentee ballots."

The mayor also argues that these "voting restrictions will disproportionately impact residents in cities and counties with high density populations, including the City of Atlanta, and will impose barriers to their ability to vote."

However, multiple studies show that voter ID does not suppress registration or turnout; voter IDs in Georgia are free to those who qualify; more than 98% of adult Georgians already have voter IDs; a social security number or driver's license number is all that is needed to vote absentee; water is allowed in voter lines (but food and water cannot be given out by electioneers, as in most states); and the Georgia law expands access to voting for most residents.

That's right, Boycotting, baseball is canceling culture. :thumbup:

Someone better tell Curt Schilling he is a lib.

I would suggest you do that face to face instead of behind the safety of a keyboard.

:lol:

If baseball keeps the game in Atlanta ... lefties boycott.

If baseball moves the game from Atlanta ... righties boycott.

Find the source, do some research, put out the pen.   

Send Delta a letter stating your family refuses to fly with them due to putting politics into baseball.   Send Coca Cola a letter telling them your family will no longer purchase their products due to putting politics into baseball.

Ask each of them why it is ok for them to make money doing business with China, and killing the Chinese people in the process ... but it is not ok for Georgia to improve the voting rights previously enacted by the people of the state of Georgia.

One man's humble opinioin.

You just don't get it!
MLB is all American, but the group of corporate leeches, who, like a cancer, found their way into the upper echelon of control, are mere puppets of the CCP!
Let that sink in, the management of the franchise is killing off the industry so as to hurt the American people, designed to make us believe there is no stopping cancel culture.

Now, with that lesson in place, which I hope stuck, I'll explain how we take back our sport.
We're a Capitalist Nation, when something fails, you replace it, be it football or a failed scout leader, you replace it.

How do you replace the MLB? When a bunch of people who love the sport, start anew. People are prepped to find a new source of Baseball since the old management is shitting on their values.

Major League Baseball will always exist as long as it remains a wholesome outing for the American family.
Am I getting through here yet?
You are letting your love of the game cloud your decision making, the sooner you let these fucks die on the vine, the sooner you'll have your sport back.
Baseball is not the franchise, Baseball is the sport.

So just imagine, all your favorite players say, "Enough is enough" and refuse to sign, others will follow, soon a new league is created, and people will naturally gravitate toward the very thing that made Baseball great in the first place.
MLB is not the problem, you, the fan, your refusal to see or kill off the cancer within is allowing the communists to continue their agenda of cancel culture.

Just stop watching, let it die, something far better will replace it.

Intelligent people sometimes differ in opinion.

Moving on from this thread.

As a conservative, cancel culture is not my game.

As a consumer, I will not buy from those who want to invade my space and tell me how to vote.

As a voter, I feel the leftist corporations of America find it ok to deal with China, and allow the Chinese to die in death camps, but find it beneath them to deal with states identifying voter fraud.

So I know that I am not flying Delta, not buying Nike, not buying Coca, and not buying Levis.

Sometimes I have to keep it at my level ... not at the cancel discretion of America.

Bowing out of the discussion as I truly respect the passion shown by John Reese and by Solar.  That is America!

Where do you draw the line? Our own govt just interfered with MLB. What will you do when no red state is allowed a franchise, or only people who support the DNC are allowed to the games.
At what point will it be too much for you?
