MLB moves All Star Game out of Atlanta due to new Georgia law (link). Why not eliminate the Braves?

[America 1st]

In.

 

[Richtiger]

Good, this will give me an excuse to boycott MLB this year.

 

[AgEngDawg]

Fuck the Braves. Now I do not have to try to convince myself that baseball is not boring.

 

[BLatta12]

There needs to be financial consequences for corporations like MLB that do this and become part of cancel culture.

I will never watch a single game again. Ever.

Thankfully the mlb provides such an exciting and fun product that this shouldn’t continue to disenfranchise their already decrepit, dwindling fan base.

 

[AgEngDawg]

Sorry, I can't excuse the Braves on this one. They should refuse to take the field until the ruling is changed.

I would pull down the window shade if the Braves were playing in my back yard.

I seriously feel like we're living in a movie. I just can't comprehend how people think that showing an ID to vote is racist. They just passed a stimulus bill not long ago for around 2 trillion dollars. If there are so many people in the united states that don't have an ID, can't they find the funds to provide free licenses to all of the US citizens? I think that's really what this comes down to. They want to be able to cheat in the elections, and if ID's are checked, it will be much harder to do. But the news and media fail to call them out on it, because they're complicit. It's getting to the point where we may actually need a constitutional convention of states to fix this nonsense.

America is over. What comes next depends on who is willing to fight for what.

 

[absoluteUnit]

Seriously fuck the mlb

 

[scanodd]

If H.R. 1 passes this country is done.

 

[ajcgn]

Good, now I can photocopy my all star ballots when the time comes.

 

[AgEngDawg]

If H.R. 1 passes this country is done.

It would be overturned quickly in courts if passed.

 

[America 1st]

It would be overturned quickly in courts if passed.

Correct.

Doubtful it ever passes but even if it did that doesn't make it legal.

 

[GarnetPild]

Correct.

Doubtful it ever passes but even if it did that doesn't make it legal.

I admire your confidence in our judiciary.

 

[America 1st]

I admire your confidence in our judiciary.

I have zero faith in the judiciary.

Simply meant that laws passed aren't necessarily Constitutional.

 

[Tide In The ATL]

Not going to lie this news completely ruined my day. I live about 10 minutes from the stadium and was looking forward to the home run derby and hopefully trying to go to the game as well. Honestly still in a daze about the whole thing.

 

[spf84]

I’m done with baseball. That cunt ginger he hired is so condescending I hope she dies.

 

[CDDP]

He's right. When will republicans find their balls?

I’m still fucking mad about this. I hope the Barves do something to stand up to this shit. The fuckin Commies have ruined every major sport now

Good.

Stop letting them have pull and reach.

If the Braves had any balls, they would put together another all star game, or series of all star games the same days with women’s softball, maybe baseball from jr high thru high school. Maybe amateur leagues.

everyone from the area would attend, it would generate revenue for local businesses that will be missing now.

Man I hope the ATL stands up to this shit. I’m debating on benching my fantasy team the rest of the year in protest. I’ll prob finish out this year just to keep it fun for the friends, but I’m done with MLB if this shit stands

Unfortunately, you are correct.

The city of atlanta wouldn’t do shot. Cobb county might.
Funny to see Abrahams and the other newly elected dems walk back from this. They know come next election this could come back and haunt them being it’s a false narrative and now affecting economic recovery.

 

[TarCock29]

Has any sport or business blown an opportunity for resurgence like MLB the last two springs?

 

[OldBuzzard]

This is big. MLB is trying to influence the lawmakers of a state. And I hear Biden the Stooge is encouraging businesses to boycott Georgia. Stay strong, Georgia. I hope our lawmakers in Alabama aren’t too pussified to do the same thing.

 

[denn]

As usual it is a bunch of gas lighting by people who haven't explained why these voting reforms are what they say they are.

Also, the Atlanta Braves response to this is mediocre at best. Way to almost take a stand.
