There's an easy way to avoid it being seen as an attack on religion. The rules say everyone has to wear the exact same uniform, hence the name. So the fines would be for simply not being in uniform.

Which they will conveniently totally set aside the next time there's some negro or faggot worship catch phrase players want to write on their uniforms. The second there's another "SAY HIS NAME" or "JUSTICE FOR DAMARCUS" or some other shit, the rule won't apply anymore.

Just like how they didn't give a shit about the Floyd rioters not obeying any of the covid restrictions because "racism is a pandemic" (yes, really)

The rule has applied when players have done this. They were told to change.

Can you share an example?

Just so we're clear on it, we're looking for a uniform modification that was permitted during a game, just so we're getting a 1:1 here.

There are cases with players writing stuff on the cap that the league didn't do stuff about. They are included in the shared article

Ah, I see. Thank you!

As just one example, during the 2025 World Series between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Toronto Blue Jays, players from both sides wrote "#51" on their hats as a gesture of support for Dodgers reliever Alex Vesia. Vesia and his wife tragically lost their newborn baby daughter as the series started.

I feel like this can very well be seen as an exception with every member of the team doing it, especially in regards to the nature of the situation. Also, this one is misleading (slightly) considering the "51" was stitched onto the Dodgers hats. The Blue Jays relievers wrote theirs to match, and given the situation I would fully support MLB turning a blind eye to it.

Aroldis Chapman and Adolis Garcia in 2021 wrote "SOS CUBA" on their hats during the All-Star Game that year.

The All Star Game has typically allowed for more flexibility in team uniforms, considering that players are either all wearing their normal team jerseys or jerseys with their home team logo. There are rules in regular MLB seasons regarding cleats and bat colors, for example, but those are relaxed in the All Star Game.

Another Dodgers reliever, Blake Treinen, drew two crosses with Charlie Kirk's name on his hat after Kirk was assassinated in 2025. Clayton Kershaw also wrote a Bible verse on his "Pride Night" hat.

This is the best example though of rules for one player but not another. I agree it should be enforced across the board.

I saw that. They can’t seriously expect everyone to wear a pride hat. If they had Christian night and demanded everyone to wear a cross wouldn’t there be an uproar?

Pretty much this. We have the right to opt out of jewish faggotry, feminism and nigger worship then.
