That way, my boycott would be more meaningful.
And since they are limiting the number of fans anyway, they probably won't have any trouble filling all the available seats. But perhaps not watching on TV will hurt the advertising revenue. But I haven't watched any pro sports for years anyway, so again, my absence won't be noticed.
But it will be interesting to watch the results of their pulling the All-Star game out of Georgia because of their political bias.

Eff all Pro Sports now with their Woke, anti American agenda. I can't even watch college as they're almost as bad. Sports used to be unifying where people of vastly different backgrounds could come together and share their love of the game. NO MORE. The Left has destroyed that too.

MLB decides to punish Georgia for enacting common sense voter laws that apparently punish black and brown people disproportionately, and Stacey Abrams objects, saying that taking MLB out of Georgia punishes black and brown people disproportionately.
One’s head hurts. 🤕
I nominate “disproportionately” for overused and misused word of the year, 2021.

"apparently punish"
How is anyone punished by making sure people voting are eligible?

Think of all the poor Democrats that may not be able to vote (multiple times) any more and have to suffer the consequences of losing an election.

Need more of this!

I'm sure the owner of the Honda dealership will be punished.

Especially all the dead ones and all those live ones who were too lazy to register.

What has the Left built, ever?

Poverty, depression, tyrannical governments.

Yeah, can't boycott when you're not a customer.

There are 6 cities being considered
Milwaukee
Los Angeles
Arlington, TX
San Juan, PR
Chicago (Wrigley)
New York / Yankee Stadium
We can write off Milwaukee, Arlington, San Juan and Chicago right away for various reasons. Wisconsin and Texas are racist because both hava a voter ID law. PR cannot be considered and Wrigley is too small to make money.
NY is in the middle of another covid meltdown.
That pretty much leaves LA.

i have asked multiple times what is racist about the bill.
Still have not gotten an answer. The best I can figure right now, it's racist because they declared it so.
-
BTW, it is NOT voter ID. Georgia passed their voter ID law in 2005, ga code 21-2-417.1. That law was challenged and affirmed in 2008 with the court saying that the burden to the individual is outweighed by legitimate state interests in securing elections.

I long for the day when politicians are honest.
I long for the day when politic discourse is based on fact not dishonesty and hatred.
-
The only time I ever arrested anybody without an ID was either homeless or a "sovereign citizen" with their own manufactured ID. Every person who will be so called disenfranchised by voter ID already had a state issued ID. They don't get their welfare and unemployment without it.

Unfortunately, I believe, that day will never be seen again. With the media almost entirely in control of the leftists at this point and Democrats controlling everything and trying to get their "steal the vote forever" bill passed it is all but over. Normal now is to write about the narrative and after it has been pounded into the public for a week or so you issue a correction or apology knowing it will not change things.
I think you can stick a fork in it at this point. With corporations and all major league sports on board, it will be hard to stop.

There is zero burden in the individual to have a photo ID. You need one to see your doctor these days. Even my 94 year old mother who doesn’t drive needs and has a state issued ID card. There is absolutely no reason to oppose voter ID except you want to cheat.
-
Add to that a lot of states will issue a free ID on request.
And in the voter ID debates it’s been proposed to issue no cost voter ID as a solution. Again, zero excuses.

They did that in Wisconsin and the left still bitched about it.

I wonder who is really behind all of this, between MLB and all of the corporate CEOs coming out against the Georgia Law. I think we'd be sadly mistaken if we believe they all just decided this was the thing to do. Remember how Democrats hated corporations, something has changed that.
I can see where Biden could have called the MLB commissioner to ask him if he liked his anti-trust exemption.

Corporations, once hated as being evil and greedy capitalists by these Marxists, have now seen the handwriting on the wall and have been coerced by government, tech and social media to be woke China style capitalists. That is why they are collectively investing TRILLIONS in Electric Vehicles for 3% of the current Market. Also, many are run by brainwashed dolts that have come up through Leftist Education, MEDIA and Entertainment.

Milwaukee is making the case because Hank Aaron started and ended his career in Milwaukee.
Boo fucking hoo. I hope they all choke on their hypocrisy.

You should start a thread on POA and ask that.

Yep, and in the resulting lawsuits, the democrat disenfranchised “plaintiffs” actually did have IDs. They could not find a single plaintiff who didn’t have or couldn’t easily get one.

Since these poor, unfortunate, poverty ridden, over weight, Nike wearing, iPhone carrying, all need ID to get welfare, cash a check, open a bank account, enter a government building and a myriad of other things, the left (as always) showcases their ignorance and hypocrisy on this one.

Our Governor has shown a true lack of leadership and decorum in this. Instead of starting a media war he should have asked for a private meeting with the MLB commissioner. Same with the Delta andCoke CEOs.

Your stand in Governor Kemp (Stacy Abrams is the functioning governor) is grasping at straws trying to save his ass in the next election. He's toast, and he knows it. He's found out what a bunch of backstabbing conniving snakes inhabits the GOP.
Primary his sorry ass out of there.

So the all star game moved from 51% Black Atlanta to 10% Black Denver. Colorado has required voter ID and fewer voting days than Georgia.

I wonder if the MLB commish is going to resign his membership from Augusta National now?

So much for boycotting MLB.

That’s alright. These fans and the State of Texas were all giving a big FU to the Covid nannies.

I've never seen anything like this in my lifetime. Everything is now made Political and Racist. Every Fucking Thing. This is insanity x illeventybillion!

It's nothing new. Various communist and tyrannical regimes have used the same tactics.

And yet again "like" means "extremely dislike but you hit the nail".

Hahahahahahaha!!!!! MLB!!!! Hahahahahah!!!!
They’ve moved to 9.8% black Denver (which requires ID to vote and has a smaller window of voting days) from 51% black Georgia.
What a wokefest. Keep it up, Alice.

Ironic isn't it? But, the Communists are in control of the Colorado Front Range (I-25 corridor, including Denver Metro) and it is now a solidly Democrat stae because of it. Most of the rest of the State hates this Woke, PC, SJW shit.
