I thought woman commentators were irritating enough, but cunts are squawking to management about "conditions" being offensive?
Women shouldn't be present in the first place. Women do not play baseball professionally. if they did nobody would go to the games. "A League of Their Own" would go bankrupt quickly and people nostalgic for the WWII replacements to the degree they want to see women play baseball professionally aren't even serious about it.
MLB was already pissing me off with their tinkering with the rules in an effort to make the game appeal to people who didn't give a shit about it. Then, their wholesale embrace of BLM/wokeshit a couple years ago finally killed my interest. Good riddance. I love the game itself but the MLB ruined the pro version.
One woman said a female colleague's response when someone asks her what the most difficult part of her job is: "Finding the bathroom."
Can you even imagine being so privileged that a statement like that seems like a good idea in your head? Or, even worse: can you imagine being so privileged that you can literally say "the hardest thing about my job is walking for two minutes" and have people take you seriously?
The infantilisation of women will be the downfall of the west.
Yep. I love sabermetrics and plus I love the history of the game plus strategy. I played as well when I was young. Been collecting baseball cards since I was 9. But I can see why the game doesn’t appeal to everyone
Eh it's still boring af. They spend 2 minutes between pitches walking around and straightening their hats. And more and more we just see a bunch of thugs with gold chains, sideways hats, and shitty nigger attitudes starting fights.
It's funny too as they had the perfect "villain" of sorts but blew it in order to pander to the mob. Imagine if instead of apologizing to everyone that donaldson fellow doubled down on it, and even went so far as to say that ALL black people should be honored to be compared to such a figure as jackie. It would've made yankee broadcasts the most viewed of all time.
It's nothing, but it's a funny nothing. It's proof that despite people suggesting america should be a "melting pot" you can't actually say or do anything to anyone without some sort of massive repercussions. In either case they didn't capitalize on it, which I mean if they can't do that then I struggle to see how they're going to get ratings.
Yea a lot of black Latinos play but a lot of American blacks don’t pursue it. I do notice that the American blacks that do play tend to come from suburbs or have a middle class or upper middle class upbringing. And honestly though who cares. Wasting their time with the diversity game.
It’s my favorite sport and I played when I was young. One of my first dreams was making to the majors. But you are right.
Also ESPN used to be an awesome channel that basically appealed to guys.
It started going downhill when they fired Rush Limbaugh because he dared to suggest Donovan McNabb was overrated.
Thanks. That would’ve been my dream.
Fucking goddamned feminism ruins everything.

The only sports ball I've supported over the past decade or so has been minor league baseball.
Limited virtue signalling, local, cheap tickets and good hotdogs. NFL, NBA and MLB can all DIAF.
Baseball is boring and always has been.
It's less boring if you have a nostalgic sense for it, are a statistics geek, or played hardball for any length of time.

Fair enough. Maybe not a s dull as curling.
correct
Hockey playoffs have been amazing. Not a ton of overlap but I encourage anyone down on baseball to give it a shot
But muh roided up cuckball!!!!!
Fr tho if women can't find a bathroom that's their problem. Who knows what a woman is anyway right? How bigoted they pretend to know what a woman is.

Fucking with the rules didn't really do them any favors either.
Baseball’s cultural impact in America has been on the decline since 1994. It’s just now it’s popularity is now going along with it.
