If the MLB moves the All Star Game out of Atlanta this year, I have watched my last game (link)...

Freeman says keeping All-Star game in Atlanta could be a ‘platform’
Braves' Freddie Freeman says he believes keeping the 2021 All-Star game in Atlanta as a platform to discuss Georgia’s new voting law would be better than having it moved away.
Things are getting interesting.
Thank goodness I am only a fan of cfb and don't really follow any pro teams. It's still all I can stomach to watch them play FB in masks.

They should definitely do that. Talk alot of politics during the game, and in pre & post-game interviews. That's what the fans want in their sports, and the ratings should reflect that.
Freddie is just doing his best to get Manfred out of the mess he is in. Freddie is working for the sport.They should definitely do that. Talk alot of politics during the game, and in pre & post-game interviews. That's what the fans want in their sports, and the ratings should reflect that.
I know it is very different than the racial bs that the nba is shoving down fans' throats, but I'd think mlb would still remember the lessons learned from the strike back in the 90s...you piss off fans bad enough, and they will absolutely quit watching and close their wallets.
They are getting close to that. I would view moving the All Star Game to be crossing the Rubicon.
You're tougher than I am. I was out way before the first game last year.
It's maybe even worse as far as I'm concerned.
People should stop watching.
See how quickly the NBA commission walked certain things back, once the ratings hit all time lows, as proof that this alone will work especially over time.
