MLB Moves All Star Game from ATL to DEN

[StagLefty]

As to the MLB? Zero. Fucks. Given.

Until the focus returns to the games and not politics or virtue signaling, sports won't get any of my time or money.

Amen !!!!

Please no kneeling down during Canadian national anthem. It is so disrespectful to Blue Jay's fan.

Well, it is official this morning according to the Governor and the Mayor.
Full capacity on or before the July 13th game for all sports.
Maybe should quarantine Boulder since they have 2 cases of the new variant that causes COVID in people that have already had it.
Health Safety is Politics.

Interesting commentary on what the Georgia Law actually says.

It will be of little avail to the people that the laws are made by men of their own choice if the laws be so voluminous that they cannot be read, or so incoherent that they cannot be understood.
James Madison 1778

I hope you are being sarcastic about the quote from Madison? We have 2 problems: Those with the biggest megaphones - politicians, media, and major corporations - intentionally and blatantly lying, constantly, and most people just believing what they are hearing without doing their own fact-checking. The law in question is neither voluminous nor incoherent. It just takes getting off one's butt and doing 10 minutes of civic duty to be informed.

MLB, like just about all other pro sports, has become as American as borscht and boiled tofu. At least we still have Little League ...

If I could anti-watch this, I would.

ML what?

[MrPrena]

I do NOT watch Nippon Professional Baseball (NPB) league, because they use to be known for Salary Discrimination by Nationality.

Foreign players (incl americans) get paid less than equal Japanese player with similar stats.

These aren't just misunderstandings, the media is purposely misrepresenting the water thing (and everything else for that matter).

The first picture is what the media lies are showing. They are literally posting this part everywhere. Even Fox News posted this part on twitter.

They say, here's the law, it very clearly forbids campaign actives, including handing out "food or drink" within 150ft of a polling place. OMG! They won't let people have water!!!! The humanity!!!! Save us!!

But they cutoff the rest of this section, from the very same page.

The rest states, "this section shall not prohibit a poll officer from making available self-service water to electors waiting in line."


On THE VERY SAME F'IN PAGE the law says people waiting can be given WATER!

But the media intentionally removed that part. They're all so full of shit it's sickening.

It specifically says that only the poll officer is allowed to hand out food or drink. What if they don't?

And 86 degrees by itself isn't bad, but you aren't factoring in the humidity. In Colorado, we consider 24-30% humidity muggy. In the south, you're looking in the 80s or 90s. I'm in central Texas now, and it hovers ~80% humidity spring and summer, sometimes into the winter. It fucking sucks.

LOL,

Standing on-line in Augusta Georgia in a pickle suit in the middle of summer (and in later years, BDU's) (Ft. Gordon) sucks.

Also, your reading comprehension sucks Ridge. It also says they can post water coolers. FFS, everyone making this about people going to die standing in line to vote. Jesus. EVERYONE carries a damn water bottle these days.

Also please tell me who doesn't have a damn ID? The assumption on the left that "minorities" aren't capable enough to secure an ID is ludicrous and racist as fuck.
